Product Description

CD Description
Alongside such acts as The Animals, The Yardbirds and following the example set by The Beatles, Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich made small waves in the American market with their 1968 single 'The Legend Of Xanadu' - included on this best of collection. Though their appeal in the States was limited, they scored several chart hits in the UK with singles such as 'Bend It', 'Zabadak' and 'Save Me'. Fans will appreciate the new studio versions of classic songs included at the tail end of this disc, including an Everly Brothers medley and a hybrid version of Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway To Heaven' and The Who's 'Pinball Wizard'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Welcome to Nostalgia Lane, 4 Mar 2009
By Mary (Oxon United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
For those of us of a certain age this cd is a real trip down Nostalgia Lane. All my favourite DD, D, B M and T tracks are there and they all sound just like they used to on good old vinyl. So much of the remastered stuff is too bright and modern but this compilation has come up trumps.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great pop music!, 24 Nov 2008
By Archy (ALTRINCHAM, Cheshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
I haven't actually seen the liner notes, so can't comment on them, but for me they would be secondary to the many hits on this collection (I have them all elsewhere). This is a great pop collection from a much under-rated group. The sheer variety of hits is amazing, from the beaty, beefy Hold Tight to the wide-screen wonder of Xanadu. They're all there, too, unlike on some of the lesser collections. Whoever's in the group now (and three originals remain) these are the original recordings, and what classics they are!

As to the bonus tracks, well, they will tempt the DDDBMT fans, and are an interesting bunch, though I must say an Everly Brothers compilation is not quite what I would have expected from them. Tackling Stairway to Heaven was brave - but why is Pinball Wizard stuck in the middle? Presumably because Dave Dee couldn't quite match Robert Plant on the middle section. Better to have left it alone, I think.

A few of DBM&T's subsequent singles would have been welcome, but they are available elsewhere for fans, and this concentrates on the hits, and as a hits package can't really be faulted.

4.0 out of 5 stars a good selection, plus extras, but poorly packaged, 17 April 2009
I agree with other commentators who have questioned the lack of decent booklet or liner notes on this set - it was the first thing I noticed as well. But the selection of tracks makes up for it - the bulk of the CD is the classic hits (Xanadu, Hold Tight, Bend It, Don Juan, Save Me, Zabadak), but the real interest comes in Dave Dee's final recordings with Dozy and Tich last summer of those songs they'd made their own through inclusion in their live shows. Stairway To Heaven twinned with Pinball Wizard made perfect sense to me; and In Dreams may not be Roy Orbison but it was a good attempt. This act were class and fun on the reunion circuit and these extra tracks give a flavour of that (albeit they are studio recordings, not live ones). I would have liked profiles of the individuals who made up DDDBMT (not just the new Beaky and Mick) and a bit more context. But it's a good CD and a fitting closure to their career with Dave, who sadly died earlier this year.
