"Hot Rod Twangin'" offers a sampling from almost a dozen albums that Cole cut pseudonymously for Crown, and shows that there was no style of music that the man could not comfortably embrace - from the Ventures to Booker T & the MGs, he and his session cronies could do the lot. Compiled by Texan axeman and general guitar fanatic 'Burnin' Mike Vernon and released with the approval and participation of Cole himself, this is a package that no lover of instrumental 60s rock'n'roll can afford to be without.
