4.0 out of 5 stars BIRD SONGS, November 25, 2011

BOBBY DAY-GOLDEN CLASSICS: Although hardly a household name, BOBBY DAY (aka BOBBY BYRD) was responsible for a handful of enduring RNB memories that brightened airwaves at the end of 50s. ROCKIN' ROBIN proved an indispensible goodtime smash, while THE BLUEBIRD, THE BUZZARD, & THE ORIOLE was a biped-themed followup hit. More DAY-penned classics fared even better in the hands of other artists. THURSTON HARRIS made big waves when he covered LITTLE BITTY PRETTY ONE, and THE DAVE CLARK FIVE tackled OVER AND OVER to righteous effect. A young MICHAEL JACKSON even pulled off a spirited ROBIN revival, making it a hit for a second time. GOLDEN CLASSICS serves up the well done originals of these gems, plus a dozen more gritty toe tappers with a few decent ballads mixed in for variety...a nifty history lesson from the pioneering days of rock, pop, and doo wop.

RATING: FOUR FEATHERS

was disappointed in the cd as a whole. I mainly bought it for the "rockin' robin" song.
