Historical perspective is rarely kind to British singers of the immediate pre-R&amp;R era, and Dickie Valentine, aka "The Forgotten Teen Idol", is very much a case in point, yet he was effectively the UK's first Pop idol, with a massive teenage fan base, worshipped by them in the same way that Tommy Steele would be idolised by his legion of teenagers, just a few years later.He amassed fifteen UK chart records between 1952-59, with a further nine titles listed in Hits That Missed... The UK Bubbling Under Chart, 1954-61. This compilation presents the very best of his singles releases between 1950-61, variously for Decca, Melodisc and Pye.Included are his two UK No.1s, "Finger Of Suspicion" and "Christmas Alphabet", alongside all his other hits, near-misses, a few that got away, and a genuine rarity in the shape of a cancelled A-side from 1958.This is the first time that this body of work has been thus compiled and several of these sides are collector's rarities, difficult to find elsewhere on CD.
