Brooklyn's Danleers had a single hit, the brilliantly moony "One Summer Night." The 25 performances here trace the group's attempts to recapture the spotlight on a variety of labels (Smash, Mercury, Epic, etc.) from 1958 to 1964. Lead singer Jimmy Weston's smooth, full-throated performances on pleading pop ballads make The Danleers perfect for slow dancin'. But "I Can't Sleep" is up 'n' at 'em, and 1960's "Little Lover," with its twangy guitar, sounds like the inspiration for Elvis's "Little Sister" a year later.

Genre: Pop, Funk, Rock / Label: Union Square

Normally these 1960's compilations that are spread across 3 CD's are scraping the barrel by the time you get to CD3. Happily on this new 3 CD compilation there is no filler. The Small Faces and Itchcoo Park, The Monkees and Daydream Believer, The Animals with House of the Rising Sun and The Beach Boys with I Get Around are some of the delights you will hear on CD1.
Elsewhere The Move bring back memories with Flowers In The Rain, Stevie Wonder brings the Motown vibe with My Cherie Amour as does Marvin Gaye with How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You).

The Bachelors took old standards from the 20's & 30's, and made these songs into their own unique sound. They were Blessed with three incredibly talented people. Con Cluskey (Lead Vcls, Guitar, & Harmonica), Dec Cluskey (Backing Vcls lower range, Guitar, Banjo,Harmonica & Musical arranger & semi producer) & finally John Stokes (Backing Vcls high range, Bass, Double Bass, & Harmonica ). Together they created the 'Sound' of the Bachelors. Their work for Decca Records in the 1960's was truly outstanding.

Label: Weton Wesgram | Rel: 2009

The most commercially successful female singer in British chart history, Petula Clark was born November 15, 1932 in Epsom, England. Trained to sing by her soprano mother, Clark embarked on a stage career at the age of seven; soon she was a fixture on British radio programs, and began hosting her own regular show, Pet's Parlour a series spotlighting patriotic songs designed to boost the morale of wartime audiences at the tender age of 11. After entertaining British troops alongside fellow child stars Julie Andrews and Anthony Newley, Clark made her film debut with A Medal for the General in 1944. By the dawn of the '50s she was a superstar throughout the U.K., with a résumé of close to two-dozen films; 1954's "The Little Shoemaker" was her first Top 20 single, while 1960's "Sailor" was her first chart-topper.

Les Différents - Soyons differents… (2005)
Classic rock/1960's | MP3@320kbps | 41:33 | 96 MB

"Les Différents" used to be called "Canadian Rolling Stones" back in the Sixties. Indeed you might feel a lot of similarities with RS and other British groups of that era. But don't forget, it's Quebec, so you won't hear a word in English :)
Les cheveux longs, chemises à poids, cravates à fleurs, drôles de pantalons… Les Différents avaient tout ce qu’il fallait pour se démarquer de la panoplie de groupes au Québec dans les années 60 – et pour atteindre aujourd’hui le statut de classique du garage québécois. Ils jouaient leurs propres compositions, n’ont enregistré aucune reprise et maîtrisaient l’art du fuzz. Par-dessus tout, Les Différents cherchaient à provoquer, par leur habillement, par leur attitude et avec une musique beaucoup plus dure que la majorité des groupes dans leur genre.
