US folk trio The Rooftop Singers reworking of the 1920's ragtime song Walk Right In topped the US singles chart and reached the top ten in the UK. This was the only album chart entry from this relatively short lived group. (US:15)
"Mix jazz and blues into their folk, occupying a somewhat more sophisticated corner of the early-60s folk revival."
"Erik Darling's 12-string guitar sound sparked my lifetime love for the 12. Still wonderful today."
"Wow this band is so great they really know how to melt some faces, such speedy guitar. Words are so catchy they're almost annoying."
"Love those 12 strings and guitar solos."
"One of the happy songs from my youth. Love this one."
“This is one of the best albums of the entire 60s folk revival. The material here leans towards the commercial folk vein, but its mostly original.”
