Editorial Reviews

Shout! Factory takes you on another trip down memory lane with the 3-CD set Moments to Remember: The Golden Hits Of The ’50s And ’60s, the companion set to the upcoming PBS special of the same name, which revisits this time with the most memorable songs of the era. This set is a sequel to the popular PBS boxed set entitled Magic Moments: The Best of ’50s Pop, which has sold 50,000 units to date. Like its predecessor, it will benefit from enormous television exposure via PBS pledge drives.

Features an amazing list of artists, including Nat "King" Cole, Paul Anka, Dean Martin, Patti Page and many more.

Includes #1 hits by The Platters ("Smoke Gets In Your Eyes"), Les Baxter ("Unchained Melody"), Rosemary Clooney ("Come On-A My House"), Johnny Mathis ("Chances Are"), Frankie Avalon ("Venus") and more.

Got this for my husband's 67th birthday. Played it on a five-hour driving trip and loved every minute of remembering the "good old days" and reminiscing about what we were doing when we heard 'this' song or 'that' song. Great songs, well produced, wonderful trip down memory lane!

In one word: wonderful. Just a view of the best hits of the 50's and 60's. Together with Magic Moments one of my best purchases.
