Our Take

If Pitchfork Magazine were around in 1958, they'd be feeling the groove of "Americas Greatest Hits - Vol. 9". This compilation album is a wild ride through the sonic landscape of the late 50s, showcasing the best and brightest talents of the time.

From the smooth crooning of Perry Como on "Catch a Falling Star" to the toe-tapping rhythm of The Everly Brothers on "All I Have to Do is Dream", this album has something for everyone. Whether you're a fan of doo-wop, rock n' roll, or even a bit of country, you'll find it all here.

But it's not just the big names that shine on this album - lesser-known artists like The Kalin Twins and Tommy Edwards also deliver standout tracks that deserve a listen. The production may be a bit dated, but the energy and passion in each performance more than make up for it.

Overall, "Americas Greatest Hits - Vol. 9" is a delightful time capsule of the music that defined an era. So put on your dancing shoes, grab a milkshake, and let the sounds of 1958 transport you back in time. Just be prepared to have these tunes stuck in your head for days to come. Cheers to the golden age of music!
