1	In Season: The Frankie Valli and the 4 Seasons Anthology (2001) more music like this by Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons For those who've lived under a rock for almost 50 years, this review will mean less than nothing. The rest of us have no doubt encountered -- on some television program, a commercial for a K-Tel oldies collection, or, in rarer cases, songs floating in the background on a film soundtrack -- Frankie Valli's shattering falsetto fronting his rock and ... see all copies from $21.44! new only from $21.44!
2	Jersey Beat: The Music of Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons (2007) more music like this by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons In the wake of the success of Jersey Boys, the theatrical production based on the Four Seasons' lives, Rhino issued this impressive three-CD, 76-track box set, which also includes a DVD of a dozen film clips from 1962-1975. It's never been hard to find a Four Seasons best-of that includes all their big hits (which are all here as well), but for ... see all copies from $46.69! new only from $46.69!
3	The Doo Wop Box, Vol. 2 (1996) more music like this by Various Artists 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. Highlights on disc one ... see all copies from $41.95! new only from $41.95!
4	Golden Age of American Rock 'N' Roll: Special Doo Wop (2004) more music like this by Various Artists This special edition of Ace's extensive The Golden Age of American Rock'n'Roll series of 1950s and early-'60s oldies' anthologies only makes perfect sense as a purchase if you're collecting every volume. For its 30 tracks are entirely devoted to filling in gaps not covered by the other dozen volumes -- specifically, doo wop chart singles from 1953 ... see all copies from $19.36! new only from $19.36!
5	2nd Vault of Golden Hits (1997) more music like this by The Four Seasons Second Gold Vault of Hits is an entertaining budget-line collection of Four Seasons hits that includes such singles as "Rag Doll," "Let's Hang On," "December 1963 (Oh What a Night)" and "Bye Bye Baby (Baby Goodbye)." Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide see all copies from $4.39! new only from $4.39!
6	The Golden Age of American Rock 'n' Roll, Vol. 4 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists Golden Age of American Rock 'n' Roll, Vol. 4 is another reliably well-packaged collection of major and minor pre-Beatles rock hits. Besides the hits by stars like Dion, Gary "U.S." Bonds, Jan & Dean, and Buddy Knox, you have plenty of one-shots by the likes of the Edsels ("Rama Lama Ding Dong"), Little Caesar & the Romans ("Those Oldies but ... see all copies from $17.09! new only from $17.09!
7	25th Anniversary Collection (1987) more music like this by Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons This three-CD set is a reminder of just how rich and diverse the work of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons was, beyond their ubiquitous chart hits. Those songs have been available from various labels over the years, but this collection is the best available look at the true range of their work, covering their history (and Valli's solo career) ... see all copies from $17.00!
8	Monkey Time and Other R&B Hits (1995) more music like this by Various Artists This brief set has some great songs and performances, including Little Joe & the Thrillers' infectious "Peanuts," Screamin' Jay Hawkins' classic voodoo romp "I Put a Spell on You," Johnnie Ray's hyper-emotional "Cry," and Major Lance's hit version of the Curtis Mayfield-penned "The Monkey Time," but in the end it's just too short and random to ... see all copies from $1.99!
9	Jukebox Hits of 1957, Vol. 1 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Jukebox Hits of 1957, Vol. 1 is a well-chosen and diverse 27-song collection that does a good job of bringing 1957 to life. The songs here come from rock & rollers like Fats Domino ("I'm Walkin'"), rockabilly cats like Eddie Cochran ("Sittin' in the Balcony"), R&B howlers like Roy Brown ("Let the Four Winds Blow"), doo wop groups like the Diamonds ... see all copies from $8.45! new only from $8.45!
10	The Golden Classics: Little Joe & the Thrillers Meet the Schoolboys (1991) more music like this by Little Joe Cook & Thrillers Nice mixture of novelty tunes, down-home blues, R&B, doo-wop, and jump material featuring the lightly regarded but good vocalist Little Joe Cooke and the Schoolboys, not a great singing group but a solidly professional one. If this is still in print, it's well worth hearing. Ron Wynn, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.28! new only from $10.28!
11 view cover	Doo Wop & Lollipops, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this by Stormy Weather see all copies from $12.86! new only from $12.86!
12 view cover	Twist & Shout/It's About Time (2004) more music like this by Brian Poole & the Tremeloes Beat Goes On has combined the two LPs by Brian Poole & the Tremeloes with their two EPs, Swinging on a Star and Time Is on My Side, on two separate CDs in a single, double-disc package. The 39 tracks on Twist and Shout/It's About Time don't represent the most substantial work of the early British Invasion, but they are enjoyable and do show this ... see all copies from $16.00! new only from $16.00!
13 view cover	Rag Doll/Sherry & 11 Others (2008) more music like this by The Four Seasons This set combines the Four Seasons' original Curb Records albums Sherry & 11 Others from 1962 and Rag Doll from 1964 in one two-disc package (even though both would have easily fit together on a single disc) which means you get the classic hits "Rag Doll," "Big Girls Don't Cry," and "Sherry," and a whole lot of filler. It's easy enough to get all ... see all copies from $8.56! new only from $8.56!
14	Golden Hits of the 4 Seasons (1963) more music like this by Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons With The Four Seasons soon to decamp for Philips Records, Vee-Jay, their current label, quickly assembled this greatest hits album covering their phenomenal year from mid-1962 to mid-1963, including the number one hits "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," and "Walk like A Man," the Top Ten hit "Candy Girl," the Top 40 hits "Ain't That a Shame" and ... see all copies from $3.17!
15 view cover	Explosive Doo Wops, Vol. 10 (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Explosive Doo Wops, Vol. 10 collects original vocal group performances, many of which are hard to come by. Among the 26 rarities are "Zoom" by the Unique Echos, "Peanuts" by Rick & the Keens, "Hey Juanita" by the Five Stars, and "Something Made Me Stop" by the Swinging Hearts. The absence of liner notes is made up for by above-average sound ... see all copies from $18.02! new only from $18.02!
16	A Blast From the Past: The Legendary Little Joe Cook & The Thrillers (1997) more music like this by Little Joe Cook The Top 25 song from 1957, "Peanuts," leads off this majestic 32-song compilation released by Little Joe Cook's own Beantown International in 1997. This generous disc is a very easy listen for fans of rock & roll, rhythm and blues, pop, and American music. The falsetto on "Peanuts" inspired Frankie Valli; in fact, the Four Seasons recorded the ... see all copies from $20.00! new only from $20.00!
