Goin' to the Rollers' Show Submitted on: 2009-04-30 |
|
The tartan answer to the Osmond Brothers finally landed on American Shores thanks to none other than Howard Cosell. Sweet faced boys with cheery harmonies, tartan fringed clothes and the catchy chant S-A-TUR-DAY-NIGHT! After being teen sensations in the UK for a couple of years, Rollersmania hit number one in the US in 1974.
Despite the hype, much of the best of the Roller's music was composed by the band. The top ten "Money Honey" was self-composed, and so was their disco-hit "Can't Stop The Music." The band was chomping at the bit to escape the teeny-tag, and had they not been yoked to a weird deal with Arista (forcing the band to have 50% of the songs per album covers chosen by the label), they might have managed to be contemporaries of - while listening the toughened sound on "Yesterday's Heroes" - perhaps The Sweet. However, the bulk of this best of still sounds slick and solid. Even the covers ("Rock and Roll Love Letter" and "I Only Want to Be With You" being two bests here) still sounds confident and catchy. Not earth-shattering, but still powerful fun. Even the songs most of us did not hear, like "Turn On The Radio," could have been big. |

Unless you are a rabid fan, save your money.
This "Collection" is no more "Definitve" than I am.
The sellers (and Amazon) don't bother to mention that most of the tracks are not even in stereo.
This CD is not worth the money.
I'm sorry I bought it.

Wonderful Memories Submitted on: 2009-01-06 |

| Bought this CD as a gift for my sister. When we were little and camping with our family, we'd sing and dance to these songs on our cassette tape. Recently I searched high & low for this cassette and couldn't find it. I was so happy to see it on CD! The day after Christmas my sister called me while she was listening to the CD and for a half hour we reminisced about the songs together. I'm so happy I found this! Thank you Amazon! |

Underrated band Submitted on: 2008-10-22 |
|
| There isn't a single song on here that I don't like. I was around 8-9 years old when the Rollers were at the height of the glory, and I only remember "Saturday Night" and "I Only Want To Be With You" so I guess I really missed out on their other GREAT songs! Apparently they were victims of the industry (and Les fell victim to a big head), but they really had talent and charisma. I hope they win their lawsuit. |
