Vipers Skiffle Group • Skiffling Along 10" Vinyl LP Few groups did more to define Britain's Skiffle boom than the Vipers Skiffle Group. Formed in London during the mid-1950s, they became one of the country's leading Skiffle acts, combining American Folk, Blues and traditional songs with a youthful energy that helped launch a musical revolution. Skiffling Along captures the band at their vibrant best with a superb collection of original recordings. Featuring favourites including Streamline Train, Pay Me My Money Down, This Land Is Your Land, John B Sails, Worried Man Blues and Ain't You Glad, the album perfectly demonstrates why The Vipers became one of the biggest names of the Skiffle era. Simple instrumentation, strong vocal harmonies and irresistible rhythms give these performances a freshness that remains every bit as engaging today. The real charm of Skiffling Along lies in its honesty. There's no studio trickery or grand production, just a handful of musicians playing with enthusiasm and complete conviction. It's easy to hear why Skiffle inspired so many young people to form bands, because these recordings make music feel exciting, accessible and, above all, achievable. Beautifully presented on 10" vinyl, Skiffling Along is an essential addition for collectors of Skiffle, British Rock 'n' Roll, Folk and the early roots of the British beat boom. Tracklist Side One1.
