Michael Barratt (born 4 March 1948), known as Shakin’ Stevens, is a platinum-selling Welsh rock and roll singer and songwriter who was the UK’s biggest-selling singles artist of the 1980s. His recording and performing career began in the late 1960s, although it was not until 1980 that his commercial success began. His most successful songs were nostalgia hits, evoking the sound of 1950s rock and roll and pop.

Shakin’ Stevens and the Sunsets were a Welsh rock band formed in Cardiff in 1969. They released several records and toured throughout the 1970s and their lead singer Shakin’ Stevens went on to become a successful solo artists in the 1980s. A version of the Sunsets, containing original members, still tours annually in the UK, Europe and Australia.

“Jungle Rock” is a song written by Hank Mizzel and Jim Bobo. This version was recorded and released as single by Shakin’ Stevens and the Sunsets.
