Roger’s career started in
the late fifties playing in a skiffle band and he is still going
strong in 2025. This compilation encompasses all of Rogers
recording career, from the Beatlesque tracks of ‘The
Pleasers’, all of his solo singles which covers everything
from Pop, Psych, Country Rock and Glam along with his
group, ‘Roger Skinner & The Motivation’.
This compilation highlights his song writing skills which
saw him win the 1967 Apra Silver Scroll for one of the biggest
Kiwi hits of the decade, ‘Let’s Think Of Something’,
a big hit for ‘Larry’s Rebels’.
Roger was a regular guest in the countries living rooms,
especially during the sixties and seventies, firstly with his
band ‘The Pleasers’ who were the resident band on the
popular music programme, ‘Let’s Go’. During 1967 Rogers
smiling face and his home made twin neck guitar were
a weekly feature on the iconic tv pop show ‘C’mon’. The
accompanying 16 page foldout booklet is a fascinating
chronological trawl through Roger’s productive 67 year
career.
