4 out of 5 stars Good collection, although the title is a bit misplaced........2003-03-06

As with the New Wave and Classic Rock albums, the titles are a bit off compared to the content of the disc. They seem to have a tendency to shove in popular tunes whether they fit in or not. On the plus side, the songs are all great, and the sound quality isn't too shabby either.

All the songs are feel-good, there's a nice variety in the songs selected (nothing repetitive), and Rhino was fairly generous with the tracks. The disc totals 51 minutes 20 seconds. I could have done with a few more songs, though. If you want some of the tracks on this collection, but don't want to have to buy the individual albums, this is probably one of the best compilation discs to get. It would serve as a good introduction to '60's rock, since it does have a paragraph written on each featured artist, and a listing of where each song topped on the Billboard charts.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent Song Selection.......2001-05-09

For me, Sixties rock began in 1964 with the British invasion. As such, Jimmy Soul's semi-novelty "If You Wanna Be Happy" and Little Eva's girl group smash "The Loco-Motion"--though a terrific song--doesn't really fit. And the Isley Brothers' "Shout-Part 1" was released in 1959! [It would have made more sense to include Joe Dee and the Starlighters' cover version which went Top 10 in 1961.]

With that said, this is a terrific collection of some of the best songs of the mid-Sixties. Nearly half of these songs--tracks 1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 14, 16, 17 and 19--made music critic Dave Marsh's book "The 1001 Greatest Singles Ever Made." [P.S. - "Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" is the final track on this 20-song collection.]

While many of these tracks have been recycled ad nauseum for decades on various anthologies, Rhino does a nice job of packaging them with an informative--if somewhat brief--set of liner notes and as always uses excellent source tapes throughout. My only complaint is that a single disc is too brief. This could easily have been a double-disc set without any drop off in quality or even made into a series like Rhino's earlier Top Rock Hits or Have a Nice Day series. But two years after this disc's original release, that doesn't seem likely. So if these songs are missing from your collection, this is a cost effective way to remedy that. RECOMMENDED

5 out of 5 stars Groovy, baby!.......2000-01-08

I think this is a very groovy, well-blended '60s CD. My favorites on this CD are "These Boots Are Made For Walking", "If You Wanna Be Happy", "You Really Got Me", and "O Pretty Woman", but I love every other track except two. I don't like "Happy Together" and "I Only Want To Be With You". I'm only a teenager, but I'm really into '60s music, so I highly recommend this CD. If you really love the '60s sound, I would also recommend Smash Mouth's "Astro Lounge" to you.
