Hit: 5 Stars
The Age Of Aquarius is a strong CD by The 5th Dimension. They sound great on this album and every track showcases their remarkable talent. The first track, which is a medley of "Aquarius" and "Let The Sunshine In (The Flesh Failures)" is worth the price of admission alone--this is excellent music. The quality of the sound is excellent and I really like that artwork, too.
The CD begins with that awesome track, "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In (The Flesh Failures)." The 5th Dimension never sounded better; it all comes together so perfectly on this number. They sing this with panache and I'm very impressed; and wisely the musicians never steal the show away from this quintet. Overall, "Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In (The Flesh Failures)" is quite a strong beginning tune for this CD. "Blowing Away" has a catchy melody and they sure do this one right! "Blowing Away" has that distinctive 5th Dimension sound and that's fantastic.
"Wedding Bell Blues" was certainly a major hit for The 5th Dimension; you may well recognize this tune the moment you hear the first few notes. This hit the airwaves big time when it was originally released and it still gets lots of airplay on my local "oldies" radio station--great! In addition, "Don'tcha Hear Me Callin' To Ya" keeps The 5th Dimension squarely front and center--right where they belonged and still belong! They sing this with heart and soul and just one listen proves it. "Don'tcha Hear Me Callin' To Ya" is terrific 5th Dimension music.
"Workin' On A Groovy Thing" strikes me with its beauty; that percussion really enhances this ballad very well! The drums also work well. The 5th Dimension also does a wonderful rendition of "Let It Be Me" by Gilbert Bécaud, Mann Curtis, and Pierre Delanoë. This cover lacks nothing--it's all THAT good. This vocal group was born to sing songs like "Let It Be Me." "Sunshine Of Your Love" is another tune that The 5th Dimension infuses with lots of positive energy. "Sunshine Of Your Love" is a major highlight of this album; they never let go of a superfluous note! "Sunshine Of Your Love" has awesome guitar work as well. In addition, another great cover of Mary Hopkin's "Those Were The Days" shines bright and ranks high in my book; The 5th Dimension really delivers this passionately.
We get a fine ending for this album, "Chissa Se Tornera (Who Knows If He Will Return)." The 5th Dimension performs this faultlessly and it leaves me wanting more. I like that they could sing so well in a foreign language.
Overall, The Age Of Aquarius gives us wonderful numbers by The 5th Dimension that could never be forgotten. This is an excellent album for their fans; and it makes a superb starter CD for people just discovering the artistry of The 5th Dimension. I highly recommend this album.
