The first compilation album from the grooviest of all couples Sonny & Cher. After a hiatus they would return to further singles chart success in the early seventies. (US:23)
"Within a period of just a few weeks in the summer of 1965 Sonny and Cher burst onto the scene like few acts in the history of rock and roll have managed to do. By August Sonny and Cher had three big hits on the charts simultaneously. This collection features all their hits on the Atco label. It was really their best work."
"The duo really strikes a chord on this excellent little set of songs. You might be disappointed if you want any Cher solo material. All of these tracks are love songs between the then couple, or statements on the world and are very convincing. For any fan of those years in pop music, when Sonny and Cher's style ruled the charts, you'll love this LP - very lovely music."
"I was totally in love with Sonny & Cher back in 1965. Yes, they were, my guilty pleasure even when it wasn't cool. One thing has always amazed me, and that is the lack of respect that Sonny has received for his introduction of a variety of music into rock in the mid-60s. Sonny was never afraid to try different rhythms in rock music. His production techniques, learned at the feet of Phil Spector, were impeccable. And, he had the great sense to surround himself in the recording studio with some of the great production staff and musicians of Spector's Gold Star Studios."
"Great LP of Sonny & Cher's first era of hits in the 60s. Very underrated pop classics, especially the songs written by Sonny. They are all here - a fine album of the much loved pop duo and their enduring hits."
"All in all, a fun-filled trip down memory lane with some of the most catchy, heartfelt, and just plain groovy songs from an era which contained the grooviest music of all time. Put on your bell-bottoms and enjoy."
