Very good collection of Peter and Gordon's Greatest Hits. If you loved their music originally you will love this collection. November 16, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteDefinitive British hits collectionQuote
Peter and Gordon's major British hits were A world without love (number one), Nobody I know, To know you is to love you and True love ways. Their minor British hits are here too, these being Baby I'm yours (a cover of Barbara Lewis' American hit), Woman and Lady Godiva. One of their minor American hits, There's no living without your loving, was a British hit for Manfred Mann.

There are plenty of covers here too - these include Lucille (Little Richard), Leave my woman alone (Ray Charles), Crying in the rain (Everly brothers), Somewhere (from West side story), Homeward bound (Simon and Garfunkel), Michelle (Beatles), 500 miles, Tell me how, Green leaves of summer, When I fall in love and Freight train. They are from a variety of sources, yet they are all made to fit Peter and Gordon's easy going style, which contrasts nicely with a lot of the other (more generally upbeat) pop music of the time.

This is a wonderful, relaxing collection, which contrasts nicely with a lot of the other pop music of the time, which was generally more upbeat. October 5, 2004

rating: 4 QuoteUltimate Collection ( Import ) Peter and GordonQuote
An excellent example of the best of " Peter and Gordon " .
Good quality sound tracts and seemly complete ( 24 tracts ) set of the best from this British Duo .

One downside is the lack of stereo tracts , less than a quarter of these songs have been recorded in stereo , a sign of the times in the mid sixties .

Overall I rate this album ( CD ) very highly , a must for those who enjoy one of Britian's top male Duo's from the sixties. July 21, 2002
