The 24 songs here, including all of Crawford's hits, chart records, and their B-sides, constitute superb teen pop, very much the solo equivalent of the kind of records that The Everly Brothers or the Kalins were doing during this era. None of it is exactly groundbreaking, but it's all pleasant, and some of the production is surprisingly sophisticated -- among the best work ever released by Del-Fi -- given the audience it was aimed at. Anyone who enjoys The Everly Brothers of "Cathy's Clown" is sure to love the stuff here, and might even find themselves surprised by the overall quality of the material. ~ Bruce Eder|
