The Champs were propelled to stardom when they topped the US Pop, R&B and UK charts in the summer of 1958 with their debut single, the Latin-flavoured instrumental 'Tequila'. Spawning a plethora of covers, the song earned a Grammy Award in 1959 while the band - whose varying line-up reads like a who's who of early Californian rock music - went on to enjoy further hits into the early 1960s.
This 2CD set comprises their first studio albums along with hard-to-find 45rpm A and B-sides including 'Everybody's Rockin'' which is presented in a rare stereo format.
Hot 100 hits of course include the title track, 'Tequila' plus 'El Rancho Rock', 'Chariot Rock' and the perennially popular 'Midnighter'.
Disc 2 includes all the US singles up to 1961 including the hits 'Too Much Tequila' and dance craze fave 'Limbo Rock' plus 'Tequila Twist'.
