most of us only know Katrina for the hit "Walking on Sunshine" but the numerous tracks on this greatest hits set are just as catchy and uplifting. Katrina knows how to rock out and have fun. "Sun Street" is reminiscent of the Beatles and "That's the Way" makes you want to jump up and start clapping and shaking your fist in the air. They do a superior version of "Going Down to Liverpool" which was written by a member of the Waves and was later covered by the Bangles. One listen and you will be hooked. It's a fun CD!

Dang KATW were a powerhouse pop group! Rockin' & rollickin'. And Katrina Leskanich's voice was a marvel -- galeforce and gorgeous. This great collection is a real bargain. So many wonderful songs beyond the obvious monster hit. "Do You Want Crying," "That's The Way" and "Is That It?" are personal favorites. My only complaint (sorry!) is the omission of Vince de la Cruz's beautiful "Sleep On My Pillow," one of the all-time great lost rock ballads. The lyrics, melody and Katrina's vocal practically drip with dignity and heartbreak. Makes me WEEP on my pillow!

This is an excellent CD for fans and collectors to buy,all the songs are cool and the sound quality is excellent also.

This was a great purchase. Paid a very reasonable price for wonderful entertainment. The seller shipped quickly and the cd was new and as advertised.

GREAT TO FIND THESE TYPES OF MUSIC FROM THE PAST....AND BE ABLE TO GET THEM ON DEMAND AND TIMELY.

THANKS!!

I bought thsi CD for the main song "Walking on sunshine". Good music and lots of memories!

From the time i peeled off the celophane to my sock-footed dance through the apartment as I listened to Katarina walk on sunshine for the second time, this album, trough and through, makes me wet as manilla in the monsoon season. The earthy tones and guttural feel provide an intensity not felt since the J.Giels Band laid down their epic track "Centerfold." Comparisons begin with Lakeside and end with the Pretenders!

It is a fun dancing tune. I love listining to it in my car.

great disc. of course there were no discs, when this was a celebrated brindisi at the fraternity house.

"walking on sunshine" is a timeless work; contains all the classical elements, while retaining its free composition. has been highly debated because of Katrina and her Waves striking semblance to the PRETENDERS.
