Editorial Reviews
Combining every USA Top 50 hit from 1964 to 1975 Summer Rain: The Essential Rivers 1964-1975 is the best single disc collection of JOHNNY RIVERS on the market. The versatile Rivers moved with ease from the R&B and soul covers of his early days as the star attraction at the famed Whisky a Go Go club, through the introspective singer/songwriter days of his late '60s albums and on to the pop hits of the early '70s. From the perfectly structured hip classic Secret Agent Man, the rip-roaring cover of Chuck Berry's Memphis, e evocative ballad Poor Side Of Town, the astonishing reading of Baby I Need Your Lovin', the seductive Summer Rain to the fiery version of Huey Smith's Rockin' Pneumonia - Boogie Woogie Flu. In between the hits, Rivers delivered unique and distinctive interpretations of the finest young songwriters of the day, including Jimmy Webb (Do What You Gotta Do), Bob Dylan (Positively 4th Street) and Gram Parsons (Brass Buttons). At 24 tracks and over 77 minutes of superb quality audio, Summer Rains: The Essential Rivers is the perfect snapshot of a remarkable career.

Some months ago I had the craving to hear the old song, "Secret Agent Man" and started looking for one of Johnny Rivers' CDs. This is just a great collection. It had the song I'd been craving along with the hits I remember and some I had not heard. 25 great songs.
