Comments and Reviews


wbanthony 8th Apr 2021		They appeared on USA television around November 1981 on the show "Fridays" around the time their 2nd album "Gonna Ball" was released in the UK. They rocked out and were amazing - I found both their albums as imports a few weeks later. Those first two albums were NEVER released in the USA - just this compilation with 11 of the tracks plus the new "Built For Speed" song.



whitewhale1965 17th Nov 2020		The back cover spells the track title for B5 as Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie but the side two label spells it Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie ...with only one 'N'. This discrepancy also occurs on the linked Canadian release and on the 1986 CD release in the SEE ALSO section below.



Vinylville 27th May 2019		Added images of a front cover variant and label variant.



GEMSMFAN 4th Mar 2014		It took 2 foreign albums released in the UK, before EMI would release this so-call compilation of tracks plus a few new ones, from these crooners here in the U.S. and being that they were a local band from Long Island.



Lee Wrecker 10th Feb 2014		Added covers and label scans, the label lists composers slightly differently but the information is essentially correct.
