Back to the Good Old Days.......2006-03-12

I purchased this CD for a play I was directing and the time period was late 1950's. Since I was a teenager then, and had not heard those songs in quite a few years, I decided to play the music at intermission for the audience. It was terrific!
The quality of the CD is clear, and the original artists were a joy to listen to. What a great experience! Billboard's Top Rock & Roll Hits are the best~~~

The Early Kings of Rock & Roll Ruled 1957.......2002-02-10

"Billboard Top Rock & Roll Hits: 1957" is one of the most impressive collections from this decade. All you have to do is to look at the lineup, which features two Elvis Presley hits along with classics from Buddy Holly, Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Paul Anka and The Everly Brothers. You might not remember Buddy Knox and The Diamonds, but I bet you remember their respective hits, "Party Doll" and "Little Darlin'." If you cannot find five cuts on this album that you would like to add to your music collection, then it has to be because you have a lot of CDs and already own most of these classic rock and roll hits. There is a whole lot of shakin' go on with this album, one of the very best of the Billboard collections.

Brings Back Warm Memories of 1957.......2001-10-25

The one thing I remember most about 1957 was that the Milwaukee Braves beat the New York Yankees in the world series, with Lew Burdette winning all three of his starts.

As for the songs of 1957 this album is a nice sample. As usual you can trust Billboard to give you the original hits by the original performers. "All Shook Up" is one of Elvis' better songs from his early years. "Wake Up Little Susie", Everly Brothers, was probably considered a little risque for the time. "Diana" was a top notch hit for Paul Anka and still sounds good after 40+ years. "Party Doll" and "That'll Be The Day" were hits that I was luke warm about even back then. "Jailhouse Rock" was a smash for Elvis, but it has lost it's flavor over the years.

"Little Darlin'" has always been my favorite record from the 50's. The first time I heard it was on the old tv show "Lucky Strike's Hit Parade". Since there was no such thing as oldies radio back then I didn't hear any more after it dropped off the "Hit Parade" chart. But a few years later I found a 78RPM version of "Little Darlin'" on the Mercury label, which I still have. No, that's not a typo, it reall is a 78RPM.
"Peggy Sue" was probably, imho, Buddy Holly's best record. "School Days" and "Whole Lotta Shaking Going On" round out this offering from Billboard.

If your looking for bang for your oldies buck this one is worth the price.

CD doesn't include the Top 4 hits.......1999-09-24

Billboard's book on the Top 40 hits by year shows that the Top 4 hits of 1957 was DON'T FORBID ME, TOO MUCH, YOUNG LOVE (Sonny James), and YOUNG LOVE (Tab Hunter), none of which were included on the CD. They also listed 20 songs making the list that year but the CD only had 10 songs on it.

Decent Gathering of Big, Big Hits.......1998-06-29

Most collectors will already have these tracks in their CD library, but neophytes and others who want only the cream of the rock & roll crop from 1957 will be pleased with this CD. All original versions.

Where's Kind Of A Drag?.......2002-05-20

I bid on this one and purchased it based on the song listing provided. Kind Of A Drag by The Buckinghams is NOT ON THIS CD no matter what the song listing says! Even the photo of the CD cover does not have it listed. Only is the actual song listing on the sight the one that lists this missing song. Bummer!

it's a happening.......2001-12-04

all the original songs in stereo
Little bit of soul actually sounds dated for '67 should be like '64
Soul Man,the great screetching sound(the blues brothers did a version of soul man)
Incense and Peppermints-what do the words mean?groovy man,cool psychedelic tune
Gimme Some Lovin'-another 'soul' song i think its steve winwood in the band
I Think We're Alone Now-another tommy james hit, children behave!
Happy Together,the turtles big hit that everyone was singing that year,classic pop style harmonies
Windy i used to think it was wendy for years,but another fine harmony by the association
Groovin' the rascals slow summertime ballad
the Letter- i think the 1st song to have airplane sound effects
Respect hmmm aretha's sock it to me anthem
if you want to hear some songs from '67 this is a good way to know them for the year,they were all popular and had good pop crafted tunes that are easy to listen to ,you still hear them on oldies stations as a regular playlist.

Avoid.......2006-11-27

I bought this cd for one reason only- Kyu Sakamoto's "Sukiyaki". Unfortunately, this 1994 compilation cd has a tremendous amount of hiss which makes for an annoying and disappointing listening experience. You will be much happier buying one of Kyu's newer cds with better noise reduction technology, and as an added bonus, you will also be rewarded with his other material which you will not get with this bad cd.

Sukiyaki and Other Great Songs.......2006-03-16

I bought this CD because I wanted "Sukiyaki" by the original artist, but this CD also many other great songs like "Blue Velvet", "Dominque", and "Rhythm Of The Rain". It also has a couple of great instrumentals, "Pipeline" and "Wipe Out".

Top Pops.......2006-03-07

This item has only about 3 or 4 really great songs on it.
But if you want hard to find songs you take the bad with the good.

GOLDEN CLASSICS.......2005-09-12

THE COLLECTION COVERS ALOT OF VARIETIES OF ARTISTS, AND HAS SOME REAL CLASSICS. THESE ARE HARD TO FIND THROUGH COLLECTION SETS, BUT ARE WORTH THE PRICE. IT'S A GREAT COMBINATION OF MUSIC.

Unbeatable seventies!.......2004-07-14

This collection stands out among every single 70's song ever broadcast. Some of the ultimate landmark songs include: "I Think I Love You", "The Rapper", and the song that will blast you out of you chair, "War". Almost unbeatable and only surpassed by Billboard 1960. However, quite limited in number of songs, which are only 10 tracks. This particularly CD is pretty much duplicated in Ultimate Seventies Collection-1970. If you own that CD, this is not worth buying, unless you are looking for repeats of these great songs. My recommendation list includes: The "Ultimate Seventies" Collection, Billboard 60's, and Billboard 50's.

Great CD.......2002-11-03

I got this cd for the simple fact that it has "Vehicle" by the Ides of March. I thought the people at billboard were very wise in making the decision to add that song to this series. Other cool songs included are "The Rapper" and "Green Eyed Lady."

Recalling what was on the radio in the year 1970.......2001-12-25

Do not be fooled into thinking that the ten songs collected on any particular album in the Billboard Top Rock'N'Roll Hits series represent the top 10 singles from that year or even that they are even all #1 hits. Still, if you were tuned to the radio in 1970 you will recognize every single track in this collection. By rule of thumb with such hit albums is whether or not they add five or more new songs to my music collection. I only have three of these already on CD ("Mama Told Me (Not To Come)," "I Think I Love You" and "I Want Your Back"--I know, pretty embarrassing), and of the seven other tracks there is not one of them that I do not mind listening to, taking me back to the year 1970 when we moved from Japan to New Mexico and I started high school. The only complaint would be that there are only 10 songs, but clearly my criteria has been met. "War" and "Spirit in the Sky" are the most worthy additions, and I think I have a 45 of "Venus" some where around here. I just do not have a record player anymore. Do the math yourself, and if you also come up with five songs you would like to have, pick this puppy up. Hippo Holidays, America.

High School Days Revisited.......2000-01-22

1970, the anticipation for me of what the next four years of high school would be like. These songs definitely bring me back without a doubt, the definition of what top 40 AM radio was like. Every song on this CD is great, no fillers here, the only thing I would change about it would be to put the extended version of "Green-Eyed Lady" by Sugarloaf on it. Perfect listening.

Rock & Roll in 1969 course number 101--even if they were limited to ten songs.......2006-08-14

This CD has a great selection of ten songs that were really big in 1969. The sound is great; and there are great photos of some of the groups represented on this CD. The liner notes lack any extensive essay; but who cares? You'll be transported back in time to 1969 with some great rock nostalgia. My only gripe is that this CD series limits the CD tracks to ten.

Another reviewer writes that Tommy James & The Shondells shouldn't have been picked twice since there was only room for ten songs on this CD. I think he has a good point; but I liked both "Crimson And Clover" and "Crystal Blue Persuasion" anyway. They are somewhat laid back, quasi-psychedelic songs that you can still hear occasionally on certain radio stations playing '60s music.

There are several different types of songs on this CD; and that's really a great plus! "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" has an awesome beat and is still sometimes played at sports events. "Sugar, Sugar" by The Archies represents that bubblegum type of '60s song that is very catchy even if it's not the greatest music ever written. "Build Me Up Buttercup" has a terrific, almost triumphant sounding musical arrangement this is completely infectious; and "Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In" has a certain dramatic element to it that starts the CD off on a very strong note.

In short, if you have to pick just one CD to cover the year 1969, this is a great choice. It's not as comprehensive as I would like it to be because Rhino limited the "Billboard Rock & Roll" series to ten songs each. I recommend this CD for fans of music from the late '60s and people who just want to know a little bit more about some of the great hits put out in 1969.

Billboard Top Rock'n' Roll Hits 1969.......2006-02-26

This series of discs are a nice addition to anyones 60s library. I don't know if I am the only one who's noticed but the 1969 disc has changed. I bought mine originally back in the early 1990's. Some of the songs on my edition are different. I bought mine at one of those record store chains back then. My tracks are 1. Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine In (5th Dimension), 2. Sugar, Sugar (The Archies), 3. Dizzy (Tommy Roe), 4. I can't get next to you (The Temptations), 5. Crimson and Clover (Tommy James and the Shondells, 6. Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye (Steam), 7. Hair (The Cowsills), 8. Build me up Buttercup (The Foundations), 9. Time of the Season (The Zombies), and 10. Get Together (The Youngbloods). As you can see there are some different songs on mine. I don't know what happened but perhaps on the first editions of these CD's they had some of the chart information wrong and thats why they changed. Who knows. At any rate I would recommend buying these CD's. They make a wonderful collection.

My mom loves this music, and when she introduced it to me, I really liked it, too. The best songs on here are Dizzy, Sugar Sugar, and Build Me Up Buttercup. Now my goal is to collect the whole 60's billboard series.

Oliver.......2005-04-12

We get to enjoy the late Oliver singing Good Morning Starshine enough to make this collection worth while. The little man with a lisp was perfect for this song.

Great musical snapshots from the early 1980s.......2007-07-30

I listened to completely different kinds of music at the time, so I didn't have many memories attached to these songs. The musical quality of the songs is actually suprisingly good, and the mastering has been done well. This is a nice review of hits of the early 1980s. Ten songs per CD isn't much, so there could have been more songs from each year.

This was during Xmas 1984. One lovely girl from Texas brought to Poland (this is where I live) the 10 cassetes pack with "The Best of Billboard - 1984". I still hear this music. Now I can buy a piece of it.

To anyone who was ...teen in 1984: you have to own this one. Don't tell me there is no music you remember from these years. It must be one at least. Remember the first girlfriend. The first kiss maybe? Yes! That's it!.

I want my MTV!.......2000-06-17

This set takes me back to the early days of MTV. Pac-Man fever, Atari and great times in my life. As a child of the 80s it was a special time and special music. This box set helps take you back from time to time!

this is a great collection of the top songs.......1999-09-16

again billboard has done well in putting together a box set of the best songs of this time period. you will appreciate this gathering of the best. every listening minute of this box set is pure elation. not to be passed up.

Customer Reviews:

Songs are OK graphics not so great.......2007-07-20

The songs are fine, but there is no way to tell how close you are to the next lyric when in between verses. Unless you know the songs it can be tough to track. Many other competitors have ...s or something to signal how close you are to the next verse.

Certainly the best one

Certainly the best one.......2004-09-07

This CD has the best compilation in all the Billboard collection. Another great thing is its low price, making it a hard to beat 'bang for the buck'!

What's on it?.......2001-12-16

One problem with the Billboard CD's is that they change the content. You can buy Top RnR Hits for 1966 with one set of titles on it and then when you go to buy another copy, it has different songs on it, but the same product number. You can't replace a lost CD.

What's on it?.......2001-12-16

Awesome collection with excellent sound quality........2000-07-10

Rock 'n' roll compilations are as numerous as shells and rocks on a Pacifica beach. It's difficult to decide which ones to buy. There are a rare few that are must own, usually the ones on TV. I've been trying to collect the BILLBOARD and OLDIES BUT GOODIES series, but process has been slow. There's no second guessing with this collection-it's awesome! The year 1966 was an explosive year in music. The Beach Boys-PET SOUND, The Beatles-REVOLVER, The Byrds-FIFTH DIMENSION were a few of the most valuable albums released. A small sampling of the top singles are collected here. "I'm A Believer" is a marvelous opening track, with crystal clear sound quality. All the songs are classic-"Wild Thing", "Soul And Inspiration", "Good Vibrations", "Good Lovin'", "When A Man Loves A Woman" just to name a few. Performed by top 1960s bands-The Lovin' Spoonful, The Beach Boys, Tommy James, The Righteous Brothers, The Mamas & The Papas. Though every song and band are noteworthy, I'd be here for hours describing them. Inside is a time capsule with the top headlines, fads, movies, TV shows, plays, books, and debuts. While BILLBOARD TOP ROCK 'N' ROLL HITS aren't the most comprehensive collections. This 1966 one is excellent, an inexpensive way to get terrific songs with great sound. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

THIS CD ROCKS.......1998-11-14

I bought this cd a while ago and it rules! The best songs on it are "I'm a Beliver" and "Wild Thing". If you like 60's music. This cd is for you.

An Interesting Group of Songs.......2006-11-15

When you're looking for that one particlular 60's song, this series isn't too bad. I bought this CD for "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay", but was pleasantly surpised to get "Chain of Fools", "Green Tambourine" and "The Horse" which is a song my band used to play in the 70's.

1968 rock .......2005-07-28

this is another great billboard rock n roll CD. There were all different types of music that year, like soul and bubblegum. Here we have the tight instrumental the Horse, the wild song Mony Mony, and one hit wonder group the Lemon Pipers with Green Tambourine. All original versions!

Classic Pop Hits.......1998-06-30

All original versions of 1968 mega hits. Just try to find "Yummy Yummy Yummy" and "Green Tambourine" on another CD!
