5.0 out of 5 stars New to Walkers -- and lovin' them!
I have only heard the Walker Brothers' singles in passing. I was happily surprised by how strong this album is. I enjoyed it all the way through. Reminds me of Phil Spector productions, which makes sense, since the Walkers came after Spector's Righteous Bros. productions. Highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars a strange mix
Some of these songs sound like they came from different eras, some good, some great, some bad. Scott's voice is incredibly beautiful, John has a terrific rock sound, and together they make a marvelous blend, but songs like "Tell the Truth" and "The Seventh Dawn" shouldn't have seen the light of day, and "But I Do" doesn't fare much better...

3.0 out of 5 stars a strange mix, August 4, 2001
This review is from: Take It Easy With the Walker Brothers (Audio CD)
Some of these songs sound like they came from different eras, some good, some great, some bad. Scott's voice is incredibly beautiful, John has a terrific rock sound, and together they make a marvelous blend, but songs like "Tell the Truth" and "The Seventh Dawn" shouldn't have seen the light of day, and "But I Do" doesn't fare much better. The worst part comes when the lovely "Young Man Cried" with it's wonderful moving lyrics, is followed by the dreadful "Everything's Gonna be Alright"...it's a shock to the senses.

Released in 1965, and despite some exquisite songs, this one's for Walker Brother collectors only...get their 1966 recording "Portrait" instead, which is fabulous, and released on CD with 12 bonus tracks. It's a classic that will always be a joy to listen to.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT SOUND FROM THE GREATEST ERA!, December 13, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Take It Easy with the Walker Brothers (Audio CD)
This cd comes from what I believe to be the greatest period of american music of our time.
The walker brothers had a sound that the technology of that time couldn't contain.
With the compact disc we get to hear what a lot of kids of the 60's couldn't hear
the clean crisp sound of the walker brothers.The girl I lost in the rain is the best song
the walker brothers ever did.Just that song alone is worth buying this cd.
