SIXTIES AGAIN...

VA - Sixties Summer Love [1999] (2 x CD's)

Of course, there have been many double CD's of sixties hits released over the years. Some tracks are included more often than others and which ones appeal most will often depend on how many of your personal favorites are included, or how many songs you are missing from your own collection. However, this is undoubtedly a very strong compilation which I find extremely enjoyable listening.   Of course, look at the tracklisting and you can make up your own mind. Thinking out loud though, to have a compilation that mixes pop, soul, rock 'n' roll and Latin classics from both sides of the Atlantic - and really the best of this music from the era - is a real treat.
