Rockumentary
34 tracks - playing time: 140:00 min.
Snakebite
Rating: 7.5/10
 
The fact that Dutch eighties rock band Zinatra still hasn’t lost its fame, is proven by the fact that their self titled debut album and the follow up The Great Escape both do a thirty dollar average on Ebay. Snakebite Records appeals to all Zinatra fans that do not want to spend that kind of money on their vinyl childhood released on compact disc. March this year both albums will be re-released. The re-mastered albums are available in a two box cd set. Both albums feature a couple of bonus tracks consisting of a broad collection of demo tracks, live recordings and alternative versions.

The commercial hard rock of Zinatra (in the vain of Europe and Bon Jovi) proves to be timeless, so this release isn’t only interesting to old fans but will also find its way to people who were until now unfamiliar with the band. The box is titled Rockumentary, probably based on the booklets of the cd’s which tell the Zinatra story from the early years till the farewell gig in 1992.
