VA - Fender 50th Anniversary Guitar Legends (1996)

The half-century history of the Fender guitar and its role in popular history is documented on this collection featuring such Fender-powered hits as Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water," Buddy Holly's "That'll Be the Day," Dire Straits' "Sultans of Swing," Jimi Hendrix's "Spanish Castle Magic," Nirvana's "Come as You Are" and Dick Dale's "Miserlou."...J.

This CD is notable for the breadth of the music it contains. As a blues fanatic, I thoroughly enjoyed While We Cry and Frosty, which prompted me to buy the CD's by Collins and Sheppard. But what blew me away was how I also enjoyed some of the older and newer pop stuff, including the Nirvana cut. They even throw in a commemerative guitar pick!...D. Jellinc
