COMMENTS :

This LP, containing the complete first album by the post-Buddy Holly Crickets for Liberty (to which they were signed in 1960), augmented by a half-dozen 1963/64 vintage songs, is easy to recommend . Most of this LP is straightforward rock & roll, played with a spirit and rawness that was getting pretty rare in the early 1960s ¿ "Willie and the Hand Jive," "Summertime Blues," "What'd I Say," "Searchin'," and "Blue Monday" share space with Goffin and King's "Don't Ever Change," Goffin and Keller's "Little Hollywood Girl," and the standard "Love Is Strange." But for the lack of originals, the whole album would seem strangely similar in mood, tone, and power to the early albums of a certain Liverpool quartet ¿ the vocals are first-rate, including the harmony singing, which is a lot more elaborate than anything heard on the group's one album with Buddy Holly. The notes are nicely detailed, too.
