If you are trying to figure out what one of the four seaosons tapes to buy this is the one. These songs always seem to put me in a good mood.

Back To The Sixties, November 17, 2007
This review is from: Gold Vault Of Hits (Audio CD)
Every once in a while us older folks catch a swing of melancholy for those 'growing up years', those terrible teens when we were trying to literally grow new skin. The sixties were such a time for me and one of the most lucid memories for me was when mom gave me a 45rpm single of "Rag Doll" with the flip, "Silence Is Golden" and I subsequently drove her out of her mind playing it over and over and over. Subsequently, to keep her sanity, she bought me the album I am discussing right here. Man, I was in heaven! I am deaf, and have to hear with an aid, but I loved the beat and harmonics of this group, became an instant fan, and still feel that this album is the best of the lot; one where ALL the songs are worth listening to again and again. I'm not so certain how music affects others as far as creating a memory point in time, but at that time and for years thereafter, I would have one of the songs on this album playing constantly in my head and the result was that whatever event in my life happened during that time, playing that certain song again seems to be the catalyst to awaken photographs in my mind of that event. So I look at this album as basically, a childhood event, that at 54, I only have to pop into the CD player and take a trip back to the sixties. Yeah, a great do-wop album by probably the most famous white do-wop group of all time and a group who faced up to the Beatles and the Beach Boys in their hey-day and never blinked.

"Gold Vault" is pure gold!, November 23, 1999

It's wonderful! I love every one of these songs! I especially like "Betrayed" and "Cry Myself to Sleep." I wonder why they didn't make it very big? And then, of course, I like "Let's Hang On!" and "Rag Doll" and all the other big hit songs. Buy it, buy it, BUY IT!
