Elvis? The Beach Boys? Cliff Richard? My money would be on Mr Presley I think.

The Beach Boys have been endlessly compiled. I wouldn't mind if one of the collections had been done sensibly, but most of them include the weak stuff recorded in the 80s and 90s.

Probably someone like Frank Sinatra actually. Him and other singers from that era seem to have loads of crappy compilations filling up little book shops and all night garages.

Chas & Dave have an awful lot of records out where they start off with some vague theme (Christmas Songs, Songs that won the War, etc.) and then just descend to a load of Rabbit and Gertcha'.

Back to the topic - I'd agree that it's probably Sinatra or Elvis. |

What about Status Quo? Pye/PRT used to turn out compilations of their early stuff quite regularly.
