George Albert Tabett - better known as Ricky Shayne - was born in Cairo in 1944, moved to Paris with his mother in 1959, took singing lessons and eventually moved to Italy, where he scored his first Top 10 hit in 1966 with Uno dei Mods. The CD compilation on Bear Family Recordsr delivers at it's core the complete exciting early Italian recordings from 1966 to '67, gruff, bone-dry beat and rock 'n' roll at it's finest! In that early phase of his career, Ricky Shayne & The Skylarks were among the most popular artists in Italy. Bonus material includes excerpts from the 1968 recordings produced for Italy's Miura label and Germany's RCA. In this country, Ich sprenge alle Ketten became his biggest success in the '60s. The single made it to number 20 in the charts, Ricky Shayne became a teenage heartthrob. The liner notes in the extensive booklet were written by Italian music journalist and editor of Jamboree magazine, Maurizio Maiotti, and are printed in three languages - German, English and Italian.
