Two great hits and a bunch of ordinary songs by J. Dauntless (Clearwater, Florida) 3 Stars
August 29, 2009
I bought this CD mainly for two songs (Happy Together and Elenore) in the album. If you're not a Turtles fan, you'll find the rest of the pieces boring.

60's Rock by D. Barber (Tacoma.Wash.) 4 Stars
June 22, 2009
We old timers (I'm 55), can't help being a bit nostalgic about the 60's. OK, it was a time of Yummy, Yummy, Yummy, I Got Love In My Tummy (a real song), but it was also a time of unforgettable standards like: House Of The Rising Sun, A Whiter Shade Of Pale, Satisfaction, and For What It's Worth. Don't remember For What It's Worth? Yeah, you do, try playing it. Say what you will, some of these lightweight rock bands from the golden age of rock made some real gems, catchy tunes that have never lost their timeless appeal. The Turtles made some nice little pop hits. I bought this album for the sake of sheer nostalgia. One nice thing is that when you go back and review a greatest hits style album you often find a diamond in the rough you haven't heard before. On this album it's a tune called Me About You. A quirky little tune that I think would make a great commercial jingle for say, Coca-Cola. I'm going to keep adding to my collection of golden oldies, I like them. If you like 60's stuff, you'll probably enjoy this album.

Great Turtles Compilation- Excellent sound! by E. R. Brenneman (Elkhart, IN USA) 5 Stars
May 20, 2009
I got the new "Save the Turtles" collection last weekend. I thought the remastering sounded great! It's hard to believe that all those songs are roughly forty years old! With the remastering they sound like they were just recorded. I remember a Captain Beefheart interview i once read where Beefheart talks about the first time he actually saw a Van Gogh painting up close in an art museum. He told the interviewer that the colors were so vibrant and the paintstrokes so vivid, it looked like Van Gogh had just painted it, went down the hall to go to the bathroom, and then came back to take another look at it. I had the same feeling listening to your songs on "Save the Turtles." It sounded like you'd just recorded them, went down the hall to go to the bathroom, and then came back to have another listen.

don't sell Camaro commercial short by attentive listener (Joysey) 5 Stars
May 02, 2009
The Camaro ditty is fun. One could easily knitpick about what periphery was included or not, but this FloEdCo collection is well concieved and sounds utterly brilliant. I also recomment the first two Flo & Eddie albums, also remastered and released as a set, by FloEdCo, last year. I'm glad these nuggets are finally getting the attention they deserve.

The Lovin' Spoonful - Greatest Hits
by The Lovin' Spoonful

It sometimes feels as though the Lovin' Spoonful have been reduced to a footnote in the history of rock & roll. Yet few of their contemporaries could match the likes of "Daydream," "Summer in the City," and the transcendent "Do You Believe in Magic?"--a song that can still turn January into June. Legend has it that the Spoonful auditioned for The Monkees, and they'd have been good in those roles, having the right candy-sweet sound and a warm humor in constant evidence. But it wouldn't have...

Mercy, Mercy, Mercy: A Collection

Mercy, Mercy, Mercy: A Collection
by The Buckinghams

These clean-cut Chicagoans were unrepentantly commercial popsters whose wholesomely catchy, horn-laced '60s hits retain their bubblegum charm three decades after the fact. The 18 track Mercy, Mercy, Mercy is an exemplary best-of disc, collecting all of the group's major hits, i.e. "Kind of A Drag," "Don't You Care," "Hey Baby (They're Playing Our Song)," and "Susan." Meanwhile, less familiar numbers like covers of Lloyd Price's "Lawdy Miss Clawdy," the Beatles' "I Call Your Name," and a vocal...
