Description
Remember When is a warmly curated CD collection drawing from the golden crossroads of late-1950s and early-1960s pop, doo-wop, and R&B. The disc spans teen idols and street-corner harmonies alike, from Frankie Avalon’s dreamy ‘Venus’ and The Shirelles’ tender ‘Soldier Boy’ to Lloyd Price’s irresistible ‘Personality’ and Phil Phillips & The Twilights’ languid ‘Sea Of Love.’ The Beau Brummels appear twice, bookending the set with the garage-tinged energy of ‘Laugh Laugh’ and ‘Just A Little,’ while Gene Pitney contributes two performances including the soaring ‘It Hurts To Be In Love.’ Taken together, this CD offers a vivid and affectionate snapshot of an era when pop music was young, romantic, and gloriously immediate…
