Collectors' Choice Music, one of the most venerated pop music reissue labels, will launch a series of 15 CDs from the vaults of Elektra Records on February 21st, 2005. Carefully curated with the input of Elektra founder Jac Holzman, and licensed from Rhino, each of the reissues will be mastered from the original tapes with original album art plus liner notes featuring quotes from Holzman himself.

The series features What's Shakin', a long-out-of-print 1966 anthology that featured Powerhouse, an ad hoc band that included Steve Winwood and Eric Clapton.
