Customer Reviews
Their first American hit was Go where you wanna go, a cover of a Mamas and Papas song., but they quickly moved away from folk-rock and established their own identity with a mix of pop, easy listening, soul and psychedelia. Their biggest American hit, the medley Aquarius / Let the sunshine in, just missed the British top 10. Another of their big American hits, Up up and away, was a big UK hit for Frank Ifield. The remaining songs are generally unknown in Britain, which is a pity because several of them were huge American hits. Perhaps the best of them is Wedding bell blues, but there many great songs here.
Their early recordings were full of delightful harmonies but as the years went by, some tracks sounded more like solo recordings by Marilyn McCoo with the others merely providing backup, but the songs remained of a high quality. When the group disbanded, Marilyn and another member, Billy Davis Junior, continued as a duo. Although their duo music is outside the scope of this collection, they had a huge hit with You don't have to be a star to be in my show - it was a bigger hit in Britain than Aquarius / Let the sunshine in. It is a pity that it could not be included here.
The Fifth Dimension's eclectic mix of various musical styles may not suit everybody, but that very mix makes them one of the more interesting groups of the late sixties and early seventies.
