Ace Story 1 / Various [Import]

• Track Listing

Little over 30 years ago, the R&B and rock'n'roll loving directorate of Chiswick Records decided that it might be fun to start a sister label, which did for the recordings of what was then a mere 20 years previously what Chiswick was doing for the more current stuff. Chiswick itself had sprung from small beginnings involving two men with a market stall full of golden oldies both common and rare, so this was not something that surprised too many people who witnessed the birth of this new reissue label which shared the name of one of the most famous imprints in rock'n'roll/R&B history and which, in 2010, still goes by the name of Ace Records.
