The Crests had one of the best voices in Doo Wop in Johnny Maestro. His soaring vocals on "16 Candles" is truely astounding. "The Angels Listened In" is one song that should have made it but didn't for some reason. This CD gives you these two and more gems. Buy this disc and you will not be disappointed.

This is the very first CD I ever bought after the LP era.
Released in 1990 this "greatest Crests" hits is a real treasure
not only because it was the first one but also because, without any
doubt, it is their best compilation available. Of the 18 hits, 11
are in stereo which is quite a gift since all of these were recorded
between 1958 and 1961. With the lead voice of Johnny Maestro this
fivesome (yes they were 5 components and not 4 as pictured on all
records: there was a female singer by the name of Patricia van Dross)
is probably the most genuine doo-wop group.

This was one of the best cds I had listened to. It has everything you would want in this cd. Great

This is a GREAT CD, It has ALL the great hits under one cover,Little known "Gee" and "What a Surprise are great and little known, you can not go wrong. An Oldie

Purchased for X-Mas Gift....This is one of the best with Johnny Mystro's fantastic voice. Worth every penny of purchase price. Highly recommend this CD.

.... it only gets 3 stars because it is missing the essential Crests' first - "My Juanita" from 1958.

I really like this CD. it has many great classic songs on it. I only gave it four stars insted of five because I resurve the five star ratingfor only CDs on which almost every track is just out of sight, and there are a few tracks on this one that I am not so fond of. But all in all it was well it was well worth the money.

I happen to like the album very much, that is why I bought it.

Lots of catchy tunes, and some nice ballads I spend hours with 'trouble in paradise' running thru my head.
