Moments to remember

"The sensuous, soulful music of this Jersey trio best known for their "Love On A Two-Way Street" punctuated the charts in the late 60's and early 70's. After changing labels, the group members became Ray, Goodman and Brown and had a brief resurgence in popularity in 1980 with "Special Lady". In this 18-track collection from Rhino, are gathered their charted hits plus other singles and an album cut along with a Harry Ray solo track from his post-R,G and B era. As such it represents a decent overview of the Moments' Stang-label recordings and is accompanied by a comprehensive musical history of the group in the liner notes. Sound quality is adequate considering the less than state-of-the-art recording equipment used for their earlier tunes. The first three tracks are in mono with the remaining ones in stereo. Overall, a well-constructed package and recommended for fans of the Moments' smooth soul performances. For those interested in the later Ray, Goodman and Brown-era recordings, there is a Millennium collection now available that replaces the out-of-print greatest hits CD and serves as a worthwhile adjunct to this compilation."

Astonishing!!!!

"This is a teriffic cd I remember when I was coming up and I was a little girl and we lived with my grandmother I remember hearing these songs on the radio these songs brings back memories to where as when I hear some of these songs I just want to cry; Because it reminds me of some good times that I had wwith my family a lot of them are all gone now but this is a good album and these songs really bring back memories these fellas really could sing they had the voice ,talent, and the lyrics and this is an astounding cd if you like classic old skool then buy this cd it will have you reminiscing down memory lane. My favorites are: sexy mama, not on the outside, love on a two-way street, and many others this is a very nice cd to listen to and really do like it . This cd makes me think of my grandparents when I used to alway be over my grandmother's house because we always played music!!!!"

"FINALLY! All of the major hits of the Moments on one CD. Thank you, thank you, thank you! These guys are my 6th favorite all-time group (behind Blue Majic, The Delfonics, The Five Stairsteps, Esquires, and The Temprees). Everything they made "back in the day" on 45's seemed to be a "hit"! Til this day the only music I play in my SUV and at home it old school

R & B stuff like this. I have every single group you can think of, but I'd lost many of the Moments songs over the years, so it's good to be able to get them all again. "LUCKY ME, ALL I HAVE, GOTTA FIND A WAY, SUNDAY, LOVELY WAY SHE LOVES, AND "I DO" are some of my all-time favorite jams! Man, it's nice to have all these jams! It tickles me when the young folks ask me "who is that?" Then they are amazed that the old school groups sounded so good. In any event, the MOMENTS are truly MOMENTOUS!"
