Best Of The 1960's Golden Oldies Vol.1, The - Various Artists

Advantages: A good mix of songs
Disadvantages: Doesnt help you get through the housework

...A cd thats a couple of years old now but still fun to listen to. I mean this cd says its meant to help you through the housework but I personally dont think it really does,if anything it distracts you,because you just start singing along to all the great tracks this album has to offer, you get caught up in the music and completely lose track of what you were doing - maybe a good thing in a way :-) Housework vol 1 is a double album that has some cracking songs that you just dont seem to hear on the radio anymore such as The Beach Boys - Help Me Rhonda and Don McLeans - American Pie.

...Me being me i am a sod for buying albums with the good golden oldies on them. So as soon as this hit the shops i bought it. I paid £12.99 for it. And in my opinion is money well spent. I could not wait to get home and stick it on and when i did i was not dissapointed one bit. With artists on it like. Chad Kroeger (alright new artist but still good) Queen Roy Orbison Meat Loaf and Mr Mister Also tacks like. Hero Drove all night The best and Hard to say i'm sorry i'm sure you won't be dissapointed. Retailing from £10.99-£14.99 i think is a fair price for the amount of hours of fun you will have with this. This has got to be one of the best ballads album that has ever been made.... Read review
