It makes for a great conversational piece at parties, too. I suggest purchasing both. This is a great purchase to go along with Volume 1. You won't be disappointed with either Volume 1 or Volume 2. You won't regret it. This is a good CD with many old and forgotten hit songs by the original artists. A good buy that will bring back many fond memories of the '60s.
Don't get me wrong, there are other good songs on this disc but I'm pretty sure I already had them all so essentially I bought this for one song unavailable anywhere else. I originally had it on a cassette that I had found rooting through the bargain bin at some store I can't remember the name of, but it got ate and I decided I needed to replace it. I bought this for one song. The version of Hang on Sloopy is not available on any other album/CD that I have been able to find and everyone needs both versions of this song don't they.
Billboard Hot 100 SinglesCinnamon-Derek#11 U.S. I never heard of either one till now. Billboard Hot 100 Singles The Witch Is Dead-The Fifth Estate#11 U.S.
Just like I said on volume 1, a few of these songs you would hear on an oldies radio station while the rest of them you would find only in compilation albums. Billboard Hot 100 SinglesHang On Sloopy-The McCoys#1 U.S. Dick Bartley Presents: One Hit Wonders of the '60s, Volume 2 is thirty-three minutes and three seconds and was released on October, 15, 1990. Only one of the One Hit Wonders actually reached #1 status. Dick Bartley Presents: One Hit Wonders of the '60s, Volume 2 gets an AAAAA+++++.Let It Out (Let It All Hang Out)-The Hombres#12 U.S. Billboard Hot 100 SinglesDing Dong.
Billboard Hot 100 SinglesThen You Can Tell Me Goodbye-The Casinos#6 U.S. Billboard Hot 100 SinglesMorning Girl-The Neon Philharmonic#17 U.S. Billboard Hot 100 SinglesLove (Can Make You Happy)-Mercy#2 U.S. Billboard Easy ListeningNo Good To Cry-The Wildweeds#88 U.S. Billboard Hot 100 SinglesGimme Gimme Good Lovin'-Crazy Elephant#12 U.S. Billboard Hot 100 Singles#2 U.S. The rest of the wonders fall between #88 and #2 on the charts.
Billboard Hot 100 SinglesExpressway To Your Heart-Soul Survivors#4 U.S. Billboard Hot 100 SinglesAngel Of the Morning-Merrilee Rush & The Turnabouts#7 U.S. A good example is the song No Good to Cry by The Wildweeds. Billboard Hot 100 SinglesEverlasting Love-Robert Knight#13 U.S.
This One Hit album was around $10. There's not a bad tune on this CD. I highly recommend it to you. The selections on this album bring back good memories. My favorite is "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye" by The Casinos. Their hits album runs over $90 on this site for a used edition.
It had all of the best one time wonder songs that you would want in one.
