Description
Spring Break is a punchy compilation CD gathering ten essential slices of 1960s rock and pop, spanning British Invasion swagger, California sunshine, and raw American garage. The Spencer Davis Group kick things off with the raw, organ-driven stomp of ‘Gimme Some Lovin”, while Manfred Mann’s irresistible ‘Do Wah Diddy Diddy’ and The Hollies’ swaggering ‘Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress)’ showcase the full range of the era’s sound. Count Five’s fuzz-drenched ‘Psychotic Reaction’ and the Human Beinz’s frantic ‘Nobody But Me’ add a wild garage-rock edge that balances perfectly against The Beach Boys’ lush harmonies on ‘Don’t Worry Baby’. A well-rounded snapshot of a golden era in popular music…
A righteous compendium of some of the greatest partying records of all time!
