Dave appell's name remains wholly synonymous with the cameo parkway group of labels, for whom he wrote, arranged and produced countless hit records, for artists like charlie gracie, chubby checker, bobby rydell, the dovells, dee dee sharp and more! This compilation presents the very best of appell's own releases between 1954 1962 and includes all his significant hits, most notably the million selling 'mexican hat rock' and its follow ups, 'rocka conga' and 'bunny hop'. Many of these sides are rare collectors' items, and are impossible to find elsewhere on cd.
