Time-Life Album Discography, Part 25:
The Time-Life
History of Rock'n'Roll was a short series, with only eight volumes to our
knowledge. Each volume came with a large (24-page) booklet with extensive liner notes illustrated with
color and black-and-white photos of artists, album covers, 45 labels, media ads of the time, sheet music,
and other historical things of interest. Each CD label was different, including a label (shown at right) that
mimics the label from Laurie Records in the late 1950s.
