I sure wish I'd seen Amazon reviews before I bought this CD

"Some of these songs are by the original artists but most of them are not. This isn't "Sixties Power," it's "Sixties Powerless." According to the liner notes, of the 20 songs, 16 are by somebody else. The four that are by the original musicians: Betty Everett's "Shoop Shoop Song;" the Turtles "Elenore" and "Happy Together;" and Mel and Tim's "Backfield in Motion.""

These are not the original recordings

"These songs are not the original recordings. They are redone by the original artists but do not have the original sound quality. If you enjoy listening to songs you heard live at a dinner club then buy it, otherwise save your money."

Another rip off full of remakes!!!

"Ferry Cross the Mersey, This Diamond Ring, There's a Kind of Hush.... are all re-recordings. Anyone with a memory of the originals and with hearing can tell these are not even close to the original recordings. The arrangments are different on most... and the voices are those of older adults!! The musical instruments used sound very different too! Don't waste your money on this cd, unless you plan on using it as a coaster!"
