Listening to this CD took me back to when I saw the Preps in concert in the 1960's. They always put on a great show and sang beautifully, and threw in lot of clever humor. I glad some of their shows were saved and can still be listened to. I recommend this CD to anyone who wants to remember or know what late 50s, early 60s music was like.

This review is from: The Four Preps on Campus/Campus Encore (Audio CD)

These albums were recorded live on college campuses around the US back in the early part of the 1960's. The Preps medleys "More Money For You And Me" and "Big Draft" are fantastic, and you have to listen again and again to catch everything said and sung. "He's Gone Away" and "Their Hearts Were Full of Spring" are top-notch ballads. In short, there's something here for everyone. It's kind of Beach Boys harmony in blazers (without Mike's nasal tone) with a lot of tongue-in-cheek humor thrown in for good measure.

My sister had the Campus album about the time it first hit the shelves, back when we were in high school (she's 62). I was just amazed at how much of the music and the humor I remembered! The Four Preps had some of the best harmony and overall sound of the times, and all of that was captured in Campus. I like Campus Encore less well, mostly because of the changes in their humor. I wish a CD of Campus were availabe alone, or perhaps combined with The Best of....
