about

If there is a game that keeps on being super fun and addictive despite it being originally released back in 1993, it's "Rock'n'Roll Racing"! This isometric racer by Sillicon & Synapse (better now today as Blizzard. Yes, the "World of Warcraft" Blizzard") was the sequel to "RPM Racing". Although it sadly no longer had the track designer, it more than made up for it with incredible graphics, speed and music. Oh the music! In charge of the audio for the SNES version, legendary brothers Tim and Geoff Follin delivered amazing SPC covers of such rock'n'roll classics from Black Sabath, Steppenwolf, Deep Purple, etc. It was just an amazing soundtrack to go along with the action. Sadly and despite it's 3D sequel and recent fan attempts to reboot, looks like Blizzard is not interested in revisiting the series. I've been wanting to make this tribute for quite some years now, but always consider my newbie skills not up to the task. As such, I hope you enjoy the LP, that it brings you great memories of simpler video game times. Oh, I always wanted to have The Doors on this game soundtrack, and that's where bonus track 7 and track 15 show up. Featuring on vocals none other than Animal Crossing's very own guitar and singing legend K.K. Slider!
