Don't overextend your expectations -- enjoy!,
This review is from: 45's On CD: Vol. 2, 1964-1965 (Audio CD)
This is not The Moody Blues, or Yes. It isn't The Who's "Tommy" or Tull's "Aqualung". It is just a handful of random songs from the '60's. If that is what you seek, or you want to fill some gaps in your collection, or you just cannot find the Wee-Five's greatest hits, this is fine.Indeed, there is no theme, no nexus between the songs. They are unrelated, save the fact that they all seemed to get lots of airplay back in the day. Where else might one find "You Don't Own Me", or "You Were On My Mind"? For that reason these '45's on CD are nice collections. My only beef remains that there is a lot of empty space in these discs. They could put twice as many songs on one.

one stereo rarity, some mono versions for no apparent reason,

interestingly, they managed to find the ultra-rare *stere* mix of We Five's "YWOMM" (heretofore only available on one of Dick Bartley's excellent comps). Stranger is that they put "King of the Road" and "You've Got Your Troubles" (commonly available in stereo) in MONO. A waste of money unless you're getting it for under $5.

Another corporate-created random collection of '60s tunes,

This review is from: 45's On CD: Vol. 2, 1964-1965 (Audio CD)
Why on Earth would anyone think that this is supposed to be aBeatles compilation? The title is pretty clear, I think: "45'son CD -- 1964-1965." That covers a pretty wide girth.This is basically another one of your '60s collections that have been thrown together without much thought as to theme. It jumps willy-nilly from country (Roger Miller's "King of the Road"), to sappy ballads ("You've Got Your Troubles"), to the standard frat-house stompers ("Wooly Bully"), to folk-rock ("You Were On My Mind") to surf ("Little Honda"). None of these tunes really work together. It's your standard cut-and-paste collection of '60s tunes. A mediocre collection at best. END

Beatles fans - FORGET IT.,

Think this is a Beatles CD collection of 45's - WRONG.It's just an ordinary compilation CD (Various Artists, The Beatles have ONE track called 'My Bonnie' - From Hamburg Days). As a compilation it holds no surprises and am sure that there are better ones to be found. Norman Bonello Fri28Aug98 |
