CD Reviews

A Great Flashback
Fred Rayworth | Las Vegas, NV United States | 04/20/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"As a kid of 11 or 12, I bought their second album "On Hulaballoo" because they were the strangest looking band I'd seen in a long time. Long bleached blonde hair, no pretty boys here. I really liked the music and to tell the truth, thought Buddy Holly copied them. Several songs are Buddy Holly's and when I heard Holly years later, well... Holly was on the radio a bit before I started paying attention, I was too young, so I did not make the connection.The CD includes both of their albums and the songs are British Invasion pop. Even today, I think they got a raw deal by their record company's marketing practices. As a result, they only made a minor splash in the states and were rumored to be a "manufactured" band because they were practically unknown in their native England. Not true, they were a real band and played some very catchy songs. There is nothing down or depressing on this album, it is all bright catchy songs that should have brought them to a much broader audience. I am glad the CD finally came out because the first album is nearly impossible to find, and my copy of "On Hulaballoo" is so worn it is almost inaudible. I highly recommend this album for those of you looking for a simpler time and a good pick me up."
Hullaballoos - 3 Decades Later

"I was l7 when my friend Margaret and I first discoved the music of the Hullaballoos. We are now 54 years old. We went to see then live in the New York Paramount Theatre and in the Brooklyn Fox. We bought there albums and ever visited the year later in England (Harry Dunn and Andy Woonton). There music was happy, upbeat, fun and good. I am happy to be able to get their music on CD. It is a fresh today as it was in the 60's. If people were to listen they would love them as I did and enjoy them as I always will. 5 stars and better for the Hullaballoos. Joan"
