Very enjoyable! We especially like I'll Never Find Another You, Red Rubber Ball, Georgie Girl..... This would be especially recommended for those who enjoy 60's folk music.

I am really enjoying this album. I have discovered Tom Springfield, their producer, who wrote some of their best songs. He is Dusty Springfield's brother and truly a gifted songwriter.
I think their original material shows them at their best, combining Folk and Rock elements in a nice 60's kind of way; great harmonies and a soulful sound. The only reason for not giving it 5 stars are the covers: when they do songs like "California Dreaming" or Gospel songs like "Nobody knows the trouble I've seen" I really prefer the originals; it doesn't show them at their best, in my opinion.
But the other stuff is great, and I would recommend the album to fans of this kind of music, basically Folk Rock.

The songs are excellent, the voices wonderful. It has many of their big hits. I like to purchase the most recent issue of recordings for the best quality. The mix is clean and clear, but the vocals are often overshadowed by the instrumentals. I have to listen much louder than I'd like to hear the vocals properly, both lead and backing.

It is 3 January 2011. I cannot review this product as I have not yet received it.

Happy New Year.
