5.0 out of 5 stars ODD HOLLIES MUSIC
i, originally, bought the lp in canada. it is very different music from the usual hollies fair, and i loved the cover as well.
on this cd, they added extra songs that are more familiar to people who don't know the hollies that well. but that is ok. i'm just happy to have the original songs on cd.

2.0 out of 5 stars Poor Sounding Master
Be aware of this release. This CD is put out by the French division of EMI and for reasons I cannot fathom, the sound has been aggressively assaulted with noise reduction effects.

Be aware of this release. This CD is put out by the French division of EMI and for reasons I cannot fathom, the sound has been aggressively assaulted with noise reduction effects. The distortion of the original recording is so bad as to muffle out acoustic guitar on some tracks. My suspicion is that this disc was mastered from a vinyl source instead of a tape master.

There is a version of this album on CD by EMI which does not include any extra tracks. That is the one to buy because it is mastered properly. Trust me, the difference in sound is dramatic.

The extra tracks on this release were made available on a CD called "Hollies Rarities" by EMI in 1988. This disc appears to be no longer available but try to find it as it is also properly mastered and includes a total of 17 great obscurities.
