Most of the tracks on this CD are available in other collections or on compilations of the individual artist or group. What really makes this worthwhile is the particular selection of hits from 1960-1964. There is a certain "flavor" to the 60s pop music that this CD captures. Moreover, there are a couple of songs that didn't seem to get much AM radio playing time back then but are, in my estimation, great to hear again. In this case the playlist has The Ventures "Perfidia" and Dion's "Little Diane". The sound quality is of course excellent.

All are the original hits played on the radio. The big hits are My Boyfriend's Back, Nadine, Spanish Harlem, Come and Get These Memories, The One Who Really Loves You, Little Diane, Dear Lady Twist and Maybe I Know. Peanut Butter was played too much. Some of these I never heard like Lover's Island, It's Gonna Work Out Fine by Ike & Tina Turner and All In My Mind. But it is a good collection. My personal favorites which make this worth having are: Spanish Harlem, Come and Get These Memories,Perfidia, The One Who Really Loves You, If You Got To Make a Fool of Somebody and Maybe I Know.
