Free Music Review: Spanky and our Gang albums/discs
Hit: 5 Stars
Great album/s from a group that was really ahead of their time. Good arrangements, multi-part harmonies, catchy "hooks", clever lyrics and a variety of styles and genres of music that make listening to the discs a true pleasure. Especially interesting is to hear the group grow over their three albums with time--getting more sophisticated in their production, arrangements, and harmonies. You can almost sense the fun that they had making these albums. One can only imagine what they might have accomplished had they been able to overcome the adversity that befell them and stayed together as a group to continue in the vein they seemed to be heading. I only wish more groups today could arrange and sing music the way Spanky and our Gang were able.Free Music Review: "Amelia Earhardt, we have your luggage."

I had all three of the Japanese imports, but still ordered this set. Why? Because the LIVE album was there. As mentioned in another review, this set showcases the amazing vocals and outstanding comedy of the group. "Waltzing Mathilda" has some of the finest harmonies you ever heard. Some of the songs are NOT p.c. (Join the Klan for one...), and I'm glad no one said "We can't re-issue this, somebody might be offended!" There is one lp missing, "CHANGE", on Epic in 1975. This is worth finding in the garage sales. If you are a fan of Spanky and Our Gang, this is one you'll want for your collection.Free Music Review: The Complete Spanky & Our Gang on CD

It's great to have their entire Mercury recordings on CD; especially their version of Leonard Cohen's "Suzanne", and Elaine's vocals on "Brother Can You Spare A Dime" and "Prescription For The Blues". Also, with the mono/stereo/single releases of their hit singles, this truly seems to be a complete collection.The Complete Mercury RecordingsFree Music Review: A window to the sixties
Hit: 5 Stars
Spanky and Our Gang performed a wide range of music, always with a smile on thier faces, and with a harmony shared with the Beach Boys or the Mommas and the Papas. On those songs where Elaine lets it out, her voice is a joy and something rare to behold.Free Music Review: All of Them are Right !!
Hit: 5 Stars
I really can't say anymore than has been said about this Set by the other reviewers. Simply put, It's excellent !!
