| The Best of The Tymes They were, arguably, the most romantic sounding vocal group of the era. "So Much In Love, a huge hit in 1963, is certainly one of those "our song" songs but so, too, was their hit version of "Wonderful! Wonderful!" and "Somwhere", another Top 20 hit for the group. Their inspired harmonies are heard on this 22 track collection. |

| The Best of ? & the Mysterians The impact of this proto-punk garage band reverberates through the decades. They blasted out of Saginaw, Michigan in 1966 with "96 Tears",the song that was propelled by their enigmatic lead singer's snarling vocals and the signature sound of the Vox Continental organ. The later hit "Can't Get Enough of You Baby" is also part of the package as well as the frantic "I Need Somebody".In all, there are 27 nuggets of rocking, soul-driven ravers on this collection. |
