Description
He may have arrived at the glam rock party a little late (after such creators as David Bowie, T. Rex, and the New York Dolls had already blazed the genre's trail), but Gary Glitter notched up an impressive number of Top 10 hits in his native England during the early '70s. The 1991 16 track collection, ROCK AND ROLL: GARY GLITTER'S GREATEST HITS, includes all the expected Glitter stomping, shout-along anthems, which can still put a party over the top all these years later. Standouts include his best known track and one of his few U.S. hits, "Rock & Roll Pt. 2." If you're unfamiliar with the title, chances are if you've ever been to a sporting event (especially a hockey game), you've heard it blaring from the sound system to get the crowd pumped up. Also included is a track that Joan Jett would cover and score a sizeable hit with in the '80s, "Do You Wanna Touch Me." as well as "I'm the Leader of the Gang," "I Didn't Know I Loved You," and "Doing Alright With the Boys."
