The Four Seasons Album: “2nd Vault of Hits”
 Description :
A well-programmed, if necessarily incomplete (only 12 tracks) best-of by one of the great critically underappreciated bands of the '60s. The song selection splits the difference between the Season's pure pop side (glorious, even surreally giddy confections like "Candy Girl," "Connie-O," and the authentically sublime "Marlena," with its impossible-to-forget "roopie-doopie-doop" chorus) and their later more musically complex stuff, including the Motown-influenced "Working My Way Back to You" and "Opus 17 (Don't You Worry 'Bout Me)." If you prefer the pure pop stuff, however, there's no need to apologize; in fact, thanks to Seasons songwriter Bob Gaudio's infectious tunes, lead singer Frankie Valli's seemingly helium-induced falsetto and Bob Crewe's psychedelically vivid productions, one can make a reasonable case that some of the stuff here is the purest pop music ever made.

- Jersey Boys Keep Rocking
Lots of classic rock and roll here. If you like the 4 Seasons and want to add the biggest hits to your collection, this CD is for you. I was NOT disappointed at all for the modest price I paid for the CD. - Totally Four Seasons
I bought this ablum for the song Connie-O, which is hard to find. I was pleasantly suprised by the rest of the songs. Awsome Four Seasons album! 1 of 2 people found the following review helpful:
- The 4 Seasons 2nd vault of hits
This is part two of the Four Seasons greatest hits, purchased to replace LPs that I bought as a teenager in the early 1960's. As in the first one, this is all original versions and between the 1st and 2nd, I have all of the Four Seasons greatest hits. |
