Red Bird (and its sister labels Blue Cat, Tiger and Daisy) are all represented here with a whopping 60 tracks.Dating from the very early 60's this was the great soul label before Motown and Stax arrived. Brilliant sound quality taken from 1st generation masters with great care and compiled by the tasteful people at Ivywood Productions. Huge hits by all time greats like the Dixie Cups and the Shangri-la's .Great songwriters like Ellie Greewich, Barry Mann and Jeff Barry interpreting their own songs and cult singers like Andy Kim, Linda Jones, Evie Sands and Bessie Banks excelling at their craft. I thought adding Tiny Tim (although to be fair he is part of the Red Bird story) was not too good . A highlight was The Young generation singing a great song THE HIDEAWAY. I can compliment it no more than by saying the lead sing is so great she could be mistaken for Mama Cass. I have to say this was a brilliant buy and had a great afternoon listening to the lot - 58 great tracks out of 60 can't be bad for anyone's money . If you love soul music that has passion and originality ..this set is for you . BUY IT! Stunningly good. Will return to it again and again.Read full review
