Our Take

Ah, yes, the iconic sounds of 1959. A time when music was as fresh as a pint of warm ale on a summer's day. Various Artists' "America's Greatest Hits Vol. 10 1959" takes us on a whirlwind journey through the hits of yesteryear, reminding us of a simpler time when rock 'n' roll ruled the airwaves.

The album kicks off with the infectious groove of The Everly Brothers' "Bird Dog", a toe-tapping ditty that will have you shimmying around your living room like a loon at a ceilidh. From there, we are treated to the smooth crooning of Bobby Darin on "Mack the Knife", a timeless classic that still manages to send shivers down the spine.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on this album. The saccharine-sweet vocals of Connie Francis on "Lipstick on Your Collar" may leave a sour taste in your mouth, like ordering a pint of lager and getting a shandy instead. And don't even get me started on The Fleetwoods' "Come Softly to Me", a syrupy ballad that will have you reaching for the sick bucket quicker than you can say "bloody hell".

Overall, "America's Greatest Hits Vol. 10 1959" is a mixed bag of delights and disasters, much like a pub quiz on a Friday night. So grab a pint, sit back, and let the nostalgia wash over you like a warm wave of mushy peas. Cheers!
