Review:
A brilliant compilation
The title of this compilation may be a bit misleading – most
of these tracks don't come from the Summer Of Love in 1967, and Magic Bus isn't
among them – but who cares? It's a
fantastic compilation of brilliant music, some of it not that easy to
find.
Personally, I love these eclectic compilations; anything
which features Windy by The Association, Baba O'Reilly by The Who and Eric
Burdon's warm San Francisco Nights gets my vote. And, just at random, look at this sequence
from CD3:
Steppenwolf - Magic Carpet Ride
The Troggs - Wild Thing
Fleetwood Mac - Man Of The World
Jefferson Airplane - Somebody To Love
Enough said. This is
music which needs no critique from me.
It's brilliant, and very warmly recommended.
