This is an odd CD from England's Castle Communications, bearing the Beserkley logo -- essentially it's the entire Rock 'N' Roll with the Modern Lovers album augmented with tracks from Back in Your Life. There's no real annotation, just reprints of album covers and portions of laudatory articles about Richman and company and a list of personnel and songs; but as this CD is comprised of two of Richman's finest albums (and in good sound), it's difficult to complain about the content, anyone who doesn't have Rock 'N' Roll with the Modern Lovers should welcome this CD into their collection.~Review by Bruce Eder
