The Searchers
Featuring a wide selection of the Searchers' more well-known moments, this 2002 DVD audio collection will be of most interest to those new to the driving quasi-surf sounds of this band from Liverpool, England. Those seeking a more comprehensive look will probably be better off with the 56-track, two-CD 40th Anniversary Collection released by ...

Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass
Building upon South of the Border's (1964) Top Ten success, Herb Alpert dismissed the contingency of Los Angeles-based studio instrumental all-stars, which he had christened the Tijuana Brass. Because there was enough demand for live dates, just like a musical Gepetto, Alpert formed a real Tijuana Brass. The bandleader/trumpeter was joined by ...

Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass
Rewhipped amounts to a pseudo-addition to the original Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass catalog. This album of remixes by late-'90s and 2000-era DJs features new trumpet solos by Herb Alpert on seven tracks. All the cuts here appeared on the original 1965 release, Whipped Cream & Other Delights, though not in the same order. Before rolling your ...

Surprisingly, The Ultimate Rock & Roll Collection: The 50s features more actual rock & roll than either of the volumes of the series devoted to the '60s or the '70s, including early rock classics like Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock," "Heartbreak Hotel," and "Hound Dog"; Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode"; and Ritchie Valens' "La Bamba." The rest of ...

Greatest Hits
(1970)
more music like this
by
Herb Alpert & Tijuana Brass
Released in 1970, a bit too late to capitalize on the Tijuana Brass at the peak of their appeal, this early hits collection compounded the error of its tardy timing by only including selections from the TJB's first five albums. Still, since the CDs of three of the five albums are currently out of print, this can serve as a decent, if brief, ...

American Graffiti Highlights: 25th Anniversary Edition

by
Original Soundtrack Highlights
In 1998, the original two-album set gets reduced to a single compact-disc selection to coincide with the 25th anniversary re-release of the original motion picture American Graffiti -- hence this best-of compilation, a curious release in and of itself. Still utilizing voice-overs from the late disc jockey Wolfman Jack, who had a memorable cameo ...

Doo Wop 51: Live! isn't for everybody, nor is it for every doo wop fan, either. It's for the fan who loves the singing and loves nostalgia -- the kind who wants to hear the great groups reunite, in some form, and sing their hits years later. This isn't necessarily the same thing as being a doo wop fanatic, since there are plenty of ravenous doo ...

The British Are Coming [Box Set]
(2003)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
The British assault on America in the early-to-mid-'60s was a kinder, gentler invasion, an event that involved guitars, mop-tops, and rock-n-roll as opposed to guns and tanks. Furthermore, the invading forces met no resistance. Instead, American popular culture ecstatically embraced the new music because it reminded them of how much fun rock had ...

Rhino's first box set of doo wop classics was obviously successful enough to bring about a second, four-CD set. This time around, with all of the hits covered on the first box, the compilers have dug deep into the genre's history to put together a selection of some of the music's great sides, lesser-known hits, and rarities.

Perfect Fit doesn't represent a major change for the Nylons, but that isn't a bad thing. The Nylons' harmonies shine on these rock & roll oldies, including songs from the Drifters, the Turtles and the Beatles. It might not be as stunning as some of their earlier releases, but it remains a good investment for the converted. Rodney Batdorf, All ...

It's been said before, but it bears repeating: much of the history (and soul) of early rock & roll resides not only in the recordings of giants like Elvis, Little Richard, Chuck Berry, and Buddy Holly, but in the literally hundreds of acts who managed to produce one or two great singles, in an incredible variety of styles. You can't claim to have ...

It used to be, with reissues of the Searchers' classic Pye Records sides, that the challenge was getting them to sound good. Since 20-bit and 24-bit remastering have become the norm, however, the only challenge for Sanctuary Records (or the Sequel and Castle Records imprints) seems to be how inexpensive they can make the group's U.K. CDs, and also ...
