This collection includes every Buckinghams song you'd want to hear, and more. The disc opens with "Kind of a Drag," the number one single in the U.S. in February 1967.

2	Kind of a Drag (1967) more music like this by The Buckinghams Given its source, Kind of a Drag was one of the most extraordinary albums of the 1960s.

10	60's Pop Hits (2002) more music like this by Various Artists Sony's three-disc, 40-track collection of 60s Pop Hits contains most of the usual suspects (Van Morrison, the Hollies, Donovan, etc.), but there are enough Nuggets-esque wild cards here like the Rip-Chords' "Hey Little Cobra" and Peanut Butter Conspiracy's "It's a Happening Thing," and folk-flavored confections from New Christy Minstrels ("Green ... see all copies from $8.61! new only from $8.61!
11 view cover	Rock Revival: Rockin' Around the Clock (2000) more music like this by Various Artists Direct Source's Rock Revival: Rockin' Around the Clock is a ten-song mishmash of the rock & roll sound of the '50s and early '60s. The packaging and sound are not great but the music is. Ranging from R&B to bubblegum to sunshine pop, the disc is made up of wonderful party music like Bill Haley & His Comets' "Rock Around the Clock," Wilbert ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!

15 view cover	Rockin' 60's [Sony Special Products] (1989) more music like this by Various Artists Sony Special Products' Rockin' '60s is a collection of ten pop-rock and album rock hits culled from the Columbia and Epic vaults. Really, the only things the featured songs have in common is their shared label and decade, but that turns out to be enough for an entertaining compilation. After all, it's hard to go wrong with a budget-line disc that ... see all copies from $2.49! new only from $6.74!
16 view cover	60's Rock (2001) more music like this by Various Artists Don't be misled. While 60's Rock no doubt showcases an impressive list of songs by performed by the original artists, these aren't the original recordings, but rather re-recordings.

18	Special One (1990) more music like this by Ultra Vivid Scene Kurt Ralske's brand of technically masterful, D.I.Y. pop reached its zenith with the "Special One" single. Its cheerful chord progression, married to Ralske's gloom-sexy (think Lou Reed meets Marc Bolan) vocal stylings, made for a delightful contradiction. That, and backing vocals by sweet-voiced Pixie, Kim Deal, guaranteed the single loads of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $2.00!

24 view cover	Rock & Roll: The First 50 Years/The Late '60s: 25 Top 10 Hits (2005) more music like this by Various Artists To most observers, the title of Varese's The Late '60s: 25 Top 10 Hits installment of their ongoing Rock & Roll: The First 50 Years series would suggest that the 2005 collection would be filled with trippy psychedelia and acid rock. After all, the late '60s were when rock got heavy and serious, both in sound and sentiment, so it would only make ... see all copies from $15.40! new only from $15.40!
