REVIEW: If you're into slicked hair styles of the 50s, then this CD must be in your collection. It's the only collection of songs I know of that have anything to do with the classic pomp and DA style.

This vintage photo on the front cover of the CD album shows Joe Cirello who invented the D.A. and cut Mia Farrow's hair back in the day when most barbershops looked like the one shown. Joe was a barber in Philadelphia, PA, USA in the 1940s. His DA was adopted by British and American youths during the 1950s.
