Another really outstanding disc in the One Hit Wonders series, Volume 2 pulls out all the musical stops. There is the garage band sound of "Let It Out(Let It All Hang Out)", the bubblegummy but very good sound of "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" and the powerful, nearly big band sound of Merilee Rush's beautiful "Angel of the Morning".
The disc features a rare version of "Hang On, Sloopy" which includes a verse removed from the commercial release (the song needed to be shortened to fit the standard radio play slots of the day). There is also the wonderful and hard to find ballad "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye", a massively successful 1967 cut that strongly echoed the sound of the 1957 through 1962 doowop era.
The variety of music on this disc is breathtaking, and the superior mastering makes it sound better than the first time we heard it on AM radio. This is another of Rhino's many entries into the "Don't Miss It" category. Very highly recommended.

One of the few pleasant memories of the 60's was the music of that era. This Cd contains some of my favorite tunes from that period. I had not heard some of them in years. The Hombres angst comes out loud and clear. The lollipop sound Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead and Cinnamon is pure 60's. Morning Girl and Gimme, Gimme Good Lovin' are examples of the hippie dippy sound.The songs on this Cd are not all time classics but they are a good representation of the period.

Bought this to get a few specific tunes I did not have. A pretty good collection of hits and most in stereo.

OK, I wanted "Then You Can Tell Me Goobye" by the Casinos, and here's a CD that provided it. Very nice. The rest of it? Ehhhh...., could be worse, I guess. Only real disappointment was the version of "Everlasting Love" by Robert Knight. While Knight may have been the original, Carl Carlton certainly recorded what has become the definative version of this song and Knight's pales by comparison. That's the way it works with compilations, you get the good with the bad. Glad I bought it, though!

I was born and raised during the Golden Age of Rock and Roll. Rock and roll was first aired when I was age three, so I was steeped in the Golden Oldies. My favorite time of rock music was from 1964 through 1972. These were the best years in my opinion and whoever loved the music from that period will love this CD.

There's not a bad tune on this CD. My favorite is "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye" by The Casinos. Their hits album runs over $90 on this site for a used edition. This One Hit album was around $10. The selections on this album bring back good memories. I highly recommend it to you.
