This compilation spans selected tracks from their first sessions in 1954 to their a-cappella sessions in 1956. Included are the collector's favorites I'm Gonna Pick Your Teeth with An Icepick and When the Lights Go on Again which the group usually performed in the dark. All selections have been newly re-mastered.
