"A beautiful sound of yesterday still exciting today"

"All excellent original renditions. Magic Records remastered the material available in the best possible way, all very good, quite clean STEREO...but:

THE SPOTNICKS are an exception to the rule that later renditions are not comparable to the "originals". These guys went on playing in the recent years just as good if not better than in the past, brilliantly maitaining the same arrangements. Result: their old beautiful sound lives today with all the essence of the past but also with a superior Quality.

If you are interested, read my review of "AMAPOLA",2005, double CD. In these 2CD's you will find the later SPOTNICKS excellent interpretations of their old hits carried by a Clear, Full, Spatial, excellent STEREO sound.

For fans "THE SPOTNICKS 1962/1966" is absolutely a must have but consider also "AMAPOLA",2005; 33 better sound-quality songs at less than half of the price.

The very best is to get both, it's worth it...this is wonderful, clear-simple music (...clear&simple are very difficult to build) that makes you forget your worries bringing tons of hapiness in your unique time/space.

Ciao,

Franco"
