Editorial Reviews

For three years in the 1960s, the Kit Kats' star shone brightly on the rock horizon on the East Coast - their songs Won't Find Better Than Me & Let's Get Lost On A Country Road became anthems to a generation familiar with their radio play. This 2-CD set contains the band's best songs as well as an interactive program with a live video performance.

5.0 out of 5 stars The time Is finally here, December 14, 1999

This review is from: It's About Time (Audio CD)

It's been a long time coming to hear the Kit Kats singing all of their hits in stereo. They were one of the best groups, ever, local to the Philadelphia area. It brings back wonderful memories of a time past, listening to "Won't Find Better than Me", "That's The Way", "You Got to Know", "Let's Get Lost On A Country Road" and "Sea Of Love" (In my opinion, the best version ever recorded). They presented music that made you feel good just to hear. Ballads that talked about love, uptempo songs that made you want to hum along. New Jersey had "Eddie & The Cruisers", we were luckier, we had and continue to have the Kit Kats, the best there is

5.0 out of 5 stars First Find This CD, Then "FIND SOMEONE" to listen with!, March 24, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: It's About Time (Audio CD)

Growing up in Philly, I was a huge music fan, and my one goal in life was to join a group and become a band musician. Even before I was a teenager, there were certain songs, certain bands that I connected with, and The Kit Kats and their big hit, "Let's Get Lost On A Country Road" just knocked me over! I would wait by the radio to hear that song and back then it received a lot of airplay! SHAME on the local oldies stations here in Philly for neglecting this great song while playing "Heatwave" and some of their other *favored* songs 200 time a day!! (Another great local blockbuster of a song, one by Chubby Checker called "Rosie" is very neglected also! Remember that one folks? Shame on you oldies stations, and on you DJ's who play only what you have on your national song lists! That stinks!!!)

Anyway, I was so crazy about The Kit Kats' song, "Let's Get Lost" that my brother bought it for me for my birthday!! Now that was a great gift. I considered that record a treasure. Being a music nut, I'd always check the "B" sides. (I'll bet some of you young whipper-snappers don't even know what a "b-side" is. OH well, I'm writing this for the crowd my age anyway.)

As much as I liked "Let's Get Lost", my favorite song, of the two sides on this single quickly became the flipside, "Find Someone". People, let me tell you. I would play that song, over and over and over every day! I would sing along with it playing air banjo/air guitar thinking ahead to when I'd be in a great band like the Kit Kats. (Singing, "Don't sit there and stew, cause if you do..." To this day, I don't know if I got those lyrics right!) Both sides of that single truly helped to inspire me to go after my dream of being a musician in a band, and by the 70's sure enough I was in my own band, playing at... wow remember the club called Penny Lane in Jersey? How about The Bird's Nest in Manyunk owned by The Flyers' Don Seleski?! And remember The Old Tavern in Margate? And Roman Palace with the go-go girls! Those days were great fun, and The Kit Kats and their great music were an important part of my going on to become a musician. Really. Later I became a music instructor and began training tomorrow's band musicians (mini Kit Kats?), which I still do. But the lyrics on the Kit Kats' songs also, well, come on, you know, as a young man begin to notice girls and you need just the right words and music to go along with all of that. Pick up this great CD and you'll take a trip back to your own youth, to your past dreams to be lived all over again. Plus you'll have a bunch more great songs of The Kit Kats to listen to than the two I was able to fit in this small space to brag about... and really they are worth all the bragging! Listen for yourself, and then join me in calling and emailing our local radio stations and demand, "WE WANT THE KIT KATS!"

5.0 out of 5 stars A Classic Philadelphia-Area Group!, May 16, 2000

By 

"lisadiva" - See all my reviews

This review is from: It's About Time (Audio CD)

I wasn't even born yet when the Kit Kats were around, but my parents were (and still are, of course!) huge fans. We have been desperately searching for a Kit Kats CD for years now, and the wait has finally paid off! This is a phenomenal CD -- if you are a Kit Kats fan, you will be thrilled to hear "Let's Get Lost on a Country Road" as well as "Won't Find Better Than Me" along with dozens of other tracks -- cover songs and originals. If you are not familiar with the Kit Kats, this is just a purely great, fun CD -- it will bring you back to summers at the beach and lazy days at the shore -- they are the ultimate bar band of the 60's! I am a huge fan of "oldies" music so I got just what I was looking for when I ordered this. If you are also an "oldies" fan, you will thoroughly enjoy this CD! You will definitely listen to this and wonder why the Kit Kats never "made it big" . . .

If you are from the Philadelphia area or frequent the Jersey (or Delaware) shore, you will be reminded of bar bands like Love Seed Mama Jump (one of my all-time faves), Mr. Greenjeans, etc. etc. etc. The Kit Kats started it all and they continue to be one of the best ever. Buy this CD! You will not be disappointed!
