This is kind of a curiosity in that HBR must have pulled quite a few strings in order to get access to such a wide range of material. Nothing special other tan the convenience of having 20 of rock's goofier hits in one place. Actually, a couple of these were unknown to me ... Nervous Norvus' 'Transfusion', he Olympics' 'Western Movies' and Pickett and Ferrara's 'King Kong (Your Song)'.
