Comments and Reviews

Terence Archer 9th Mar 2015		Also Sprach Zarathustra !
Neil Forbes 8th Mar 2015		I stand by my comments on this one, Terence. There are far too many "gaps" in the composer credit details that are inexcusable in any kind of compilation. And because there are a great number of "re-recordings", I would avoid this and all others in this series "like the plague" no matter how well the rerecordings are done. Give me the original versions any day! Flush the rerecordings down the toilet 'cause that's where they belong!
Terence Archer 7th Mar 2015		Listened to this LP tonight so that I could comment on "Neil Forbes" remarks. Track A7 - The Troggs: Yes, a re-recording but in fact on a par with the original. A slightly softer approach with an excellent backing. Have followed your comments since you became a member of this hallowed site just before Christmas 2014. I visited Ulla Dulla NSW(all the way from Denmark) in late November and, had you been a member then, would have got off the plane waving a fistful of compilation LPs just see if I was able to gain some sort of reaction at the terminal. Have this vision of a giant "LP compilation/badly designed record label" Aussie bloodhound bounding up to me intent on tracking down and bringing to justice any offender in possession of the aforesaid unmentionables. :)
Record Collector 29th Jan 2015		Omg tiny tim trying not to get historical oops sorry that's hysterical haha
Neil Forbes 29th Jan 2015		That's a case of total failure to research content info, Terence! Everyone knows "Dock Of The Bay" was a posthumous hit for Otis Redding. If Sledge recorded a version, it would've ONLY been a cut for one of his own albums, and done only after he'd heard Redding's original version. So no, it's not a typo, it's ignorance and failure to research. And seeing that some(or just about all - I'd hazard a guess) have been re-recorded. If I saw this in a shop, I'd give a VVVEEERRRYYY wide berth indeed!
Terence Archer 29th Jan 2015		"Orlake" etched the dead-wax. Only have the first LP, so I'm wondering did Percy Sledge really have a hit wth "On The Dock Of The Bay" or is that a typo by the printers?
