Hard To Find 45s on CD, Volume 7: More 60's Classics has some pretty wonderful tunes from back in the day when `60s music filled the airwaves! These songs are sure to bring back good memories for you if you enjoyed this music then; and the quality of the sound couldn't be better. The artwork is nice, too.
Johnny Burnette starts things off with "Dreamin';" this tune has a great beat and the strings are used to great advantage. Johnny sings this with all his heart and soul and I love this song! Gene McDaniels follows next with his huge hit, "A Hundred Pounds Of Clay." "A Hundred Pounds Of Clay" is a relentlessly upbeat, joyous tune that is always great to hear; this music is timeless and the ballad sounds fresh and new even today! The Velvets also do a great job on "Tonight (Could Be The Night)." "Tonight (Could Be The Night)" is a song that you might recognize only when you hear it; the name I didn't recognize but when I hear this music I easily remembered this song. "Tonight (Could Be The Night)" is a mixture of early rock and roll with a doo wop twist that is absolutely awesome!
The G-Clefs ace their tune entitled "I Understand (Just How You Feel);" this touching ballad gets a very sensitive interpretation from The G-Clefs and it all works very well. I really like "I Understand (Just How You Feel)." Danny Williams also scores big with his hit entitled "White On White;" "White On White" is a very pretty melody and I predict you'll like this very much. In addition, "Don't Just Stand There" by Patty Duke really shines brighter than silver and gold; patty's voice is as clear as a bell and she bats this straight out of the ballpark! The strings sound great and the percussion helps to mark the beat as well.
Nancy Wilson weighs in with her awesome hit "(You Don't Know) How Glad I Am;" Nancy delivers this with her usual panache and that's nothing short of terrific. Nancy handles complicated tempo and key changes to make this tune all her own! Cilla Black also does great with "You're My World;" and listen also for The Seekers to perform "I'll Never Find Another You" so sweetly; I could never tire of hearing The Seekers singing "I'll Never Find Another You." Bobby Darin's "You're The Reason I'm Living" is equally special.
The Honey combs sing "Have I The Right?" with lots if positive energy; and the album ends strong with "Sukiyaki" by Kyu Sakamoto--in stereo!
Overall, Hard To Find 45s on CD, Volume 7: More 60's Classics has a lot for people to enjoy! I highly recommend this CD for fans of `60s music.
Free Music Review: Oldies radio, eat your heart out!!
Hit: 5 Stars
One of the biggest problems of oldies radio is the boredom factor. Most stations stick to a list of 300 "safe"songs that their consultants say won't repel listeners. Really?Well, there are songs here that won't be heard on the radio, and there lies the attraction of the entire "Hard to Find 45's" series from Eric. Bill Buster is to be commended for the care he took on this entire series, and I don't think he's done yet!One of the biggest attractions of this series is the appearance of first-time stereo tracks. Listen to Verdelle Smith sing "Tar and Cement" on this disc. A forgotten oldie that deserves the exposure this disc gives it, the stereo mix gives it a texture the mono version never could. and "Sukiyaki" in stereo... you won't find this anywhere else. Kyu Sakamoto shines, and the rich instrumental accompaniment comes through more clearly than ever. If it weren't for the fact that Sakamoto was killed in a plane crash, it could have been newly recorded.According to the liner notes, this stereo mix was created exclusively for this CD. The impeccable quality of this compilation is representative of the entire series. This disc happens to be my favorite, but you should listen to the entire series to the massive undertaking Bill Buster, the man behind Eric Records, took to bring this to us. It was truly a labor of love, and it shows. Don't just stop at Vol. 7; go for the gusto and get 'em all. You'll be glad you did! Free Music Review: Eric Records stands for QUALITY
Hit: 5 Stars
You just have to listen to this CD...people complain about some of the songs being "obscure"...16 of the 21 tracks were Top 20 hits...maybe not the tired stuff you hear on the local "oldies" station, but this series bases a song's validity more on merit than anything else.Free Music Review: Memories
