Best and Most Coplete,

If you can find this cd, it is your best choice for getting a good idea how versitle and talented this singer and his band were. Their best period was the years 1965 - 1967 and this cd covers the best of that time, more than the cd "Absolutely the Best" does.

Soulful performer,
By Loya Jirga "Loya Jirga" (Vacaville, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The History Of John Fred And The Playboys (Audio CD)
John Fred displays much more soul than his hit "Judy in Disguise" would leave one to believe. His New Orleans heritage come through clearly along with a Memphis vibe ala the Boxtops. Not content with one style of music it's refreshing to hear an artist willing to push boundries. His soul-ful, horn-driven version of "Back in the USSR" is the best I've ever heard.

Classic sound & songs, but too many on the CD.,

This review is from: The History Of John Fred And The Playboys (Audio CD)
Have always loved "Judy In Disguise". Many of his other songs on this CD are great too. "Back in the U.S.S.R." should have been left alone. That certain classic sound of rock & roll comes thru on all the songs. Does get a bit old tho'. Too many on one album. Would like to know where he is now & what is he doing?
