Editorial and Customer Reviews

Customer review: Very Best Of Frankie Valli And The Fourth Seasons (approximately 34 words)

I love this tape. Though it is music a little before my time, it is wonderful. It is a good companion to the Jersey Boys tape. They are both great tapes.

Customer review: New Four Seasons Fan (approximately 37 words)

I went to see Jersey Boys, the musical. Wanted to hear the original FRankie Valli and Four Seasons, so ordered this CD and was not disappointed. All their best well known hits included.Quality of recording pretty good.

Customer review: It Is What You Expect (approximately 170 words)

This album certainly must be considered four or five stars. It is exactly what you expect in a "very best": 20 songs, including six #1s and almost every one at least a top-ten hit. The songs I wanted were right there.

The book is a nice history of the band, written in a positive style, naturally. For you "Jersey Boys" watchers, the departure of Tommy merits only a single sentence, with none of the financial challenges mentioned. Inclusion of the lyrics might have been a nice touch, but you know almost all of them anyway, don't you?

The only area somewhat lacking is the quality of the sound. We must remind ourselves that the original 1960s recordings can only be pushed so far. Thus, they sound a little thin by modern standards of depth and richness.

My particular CD had a few rough spots and drop-offs when run on a simple CD player. Fortunately, after ripping the tunes to my PC, they sounded fine. Whew.

Customer review: Excellent Compilation - Acceptable Recording Quality (approximately 118 words)

I thought this is an excellent selection of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons greatest hits.

I'm sure the audio engineers did the best they could with the recordings. All of the trackes are very clean, but I thought it was a shame that the older tracks lacked the stereo "depth" of the newer tracks. By comparison, the "Jersey Boys" soundtrack takes full advantage of the improvements in recording technology and so breathes a lot of life into these older songs. However, that CD is comprised mostly of faster versions and medleys in order to fit the format of a stage show.

In the final analysis, I think that both CDs are worth purchasing.
