Our Take

Ah, the sweet sound of nostalgia wafting through the air like a plume of smoke from a jazz club in the 1960s. PLATTERS' "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes - 5 Original Albums 1959-1962" is a sumptuous feast for the ears, serving up classic hits from a bygone era with a modern twist.

The harmonies on this collection are as smooth as silk, with lead singer Tony Williams' velvety vocals melting hearts like butter on a hot crumpet. From the soulful lament of "I'm Sorry" to the playful bounce of "One in a Million," each track is a testament to the group's impeccable musicianship and timeless appeal.

But it's not just Williams stealing the show here - the tight-knit harmonies of the group as a whole are what truly make this collection shine. Each member brings their own unique flair to the mix, creating a sonic tapestry that is both rich and vibrant.

Listening to this album is like taking a trip in a musical time machine, where the worries of the world melt away and all that's left is the pure, unadulterated joy of great music. So sit back, relax, and let PLATTERS whisk you away to a simpler, more elegant time - you won't regret it.
