Fleetwoods review, March 18, 2002
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
I purchased and listened and enjoyed this CD - BUT this is not the original recordings. If you are looking for the original sound, look for another "best of". Also, there is no mention anywhere, by anyone, that this is not the original recordings.

I HAD FORGOTTEN THE MELODIC BEAUTY OF THE GROUP..., October 20, 1999
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
and when I saw this CD on Amazon for a paltry $6.62, I thought, "Why not?" Gadzooks!!! What a bargain. If one can wear out a compact disc, I'm going to suceed. I, like another reviewer, was a closet Fleetwoods fan during my high school days in the late '50s & early '60s. If only my pals could have taken the time to listen to the soft and lovely strains of "Come Softly, Darling," "Mr. Blue," "Tragedy," "Runaround," "Outside My Window," etc., the Beatles might not have had a chance. Now I see another Fleetwoods emission that I've just got to have, VERY BEST OF THE FLEETWOODS. It has 28 tracks with 3 A Capella versions of their best work. I just hope it arrives before this one is worn to the hub. Bravo!

As good today as it was 35 years ago., April 12, 1999
This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)
My darkest high school secret was that I owned a Fleetwoods album (considered very geeky by my buddies) and I listened to it incessantly. When I stumbled upon their "Greatest Hits" at Amazon for only six and a half bucks, it was a no- brainer decision to buy. Everybody knows "Mr. Blue" and "Tragedy" are classic tunes, but how have the other songs on the album held up over the years? Well I've just listened to the album six straight times, and the answer is GREAT. The sweet, angelic back-up vocals and harmonies by Barbara Ellis and Gretchen Chritopher are marvelous. You can't go wrong if you buy this CD.
