16 Biggest Hits
(2000)

by
Andy Williams
Determining the "16 biggest hits" of most recording artists isn't much of a challenge, but a couple of factors complicate such a task in the case of Andy Williams. For one thing, Williams scored different kinds of hits at different periods in his career. In the 1950s, he had a handful of Top Ten pop hits in styles ranging from light rock & roll to ...

Boots Randolph's Yakety Sax!
(1963)
more music like this
by
Boots Randolph
Boots Randolph's signature tune, "Yakety Sax," was inspired by the sax solo in the Coasters' "Yakety Yak," and is much better known than its modest chart placement might suggest. Randolph had recorded "Yakety Sax" for RCA several years earlier without success, but his Monument recording clicked in 1963 and the accompanying gold-selling album spent ...

by
Ray Price
Depending upon which lens of the historical perspective you view this through, this 12-song collection is the last gasp of true honky tonk, the first stab at mainstreaming it into the Nashville sound of the 1960s, or country music's first concept album. In 1962, Ray Price was at the peak of his form as a honky tonker of major repute. His regular ...

A reissue of Williams' 1960 best-selling Cadence album with bonus tracks added from Andy Williams' Best and Two Times Winners.

Ain't Got No Home: The Best of Clarence "Frogman" Henry

by
Clarence Frogman Henry
Scoring an unexpected novelty hit with the title track in 1956, Henry disappeared from the charts for four years before roaring back with two smashes in the early '60s, "(I Don't Know Why) But I Do" and "You Always Hurt The One You Love." Actually, Clarence recorded a fair number of singles for Chess' Argo subsidiary between 1956 and 1964 in the ...

25 All-Time Greatest Hits 1956-1961: The Cadence Years
(2002)
more music like this
by
Andy Williams
The title presents a somewhat mixed message: If this album has his 25 all-time greatest hits, it wouldn't cover just his 1956-1961 Cadence years. And sure enough, this couldn't be considered Williams' best greatest-hits collection, as it contains only material from those Cadence years and none from his subsequent hit-filled decade at Columbia. ...

It's ironic that an LP called Queen of Country Music would contain covers of pop songs like "Moody River" and "What Am I Living For," but it's a testament to Kitty's talent that she can make the songs sound like genuine country numbers. Furthermore, the rest of the record consists of excellent cuts like "Hello Walls," "Am I That Easy to Forget," ...

The ultimate single-disc collection of Johnny Tillotson's early years, All His Early Hits compiles 30 recordings from 1958-1963, including two takes of "Poetry in Motion." "Well I'm Your Man" from 1958 is perhaps Tillotson's most rocking side, but most of these recordings are light rock and pop. Tillotson was firmly in the teen idol camp and had ...
