Review

Originally compiled and issued on Relic Records as part of their superlative label-by-label Golden Groups series, this boasts the addition of eight bonus tracks and improved remastering quality. Featuring such wild West Coast gems as The Pentagons' "Silly Dilly," Tony Allen's "Night Owl," not to mention early recordings by Clydie King and Darlene Love (as part of her first group, The Echoes), this makes a wonderful companion volume to Hardcore Doo Wop: In the Hallway -- Under the Streetlamp. ~ Cub Koda, All Music Guide
