TAGES 1964-68 7C 138-35954/5 (-83) MONO + STEREO SWEDEN

Really nice compilation and fair retrospective on a great group. A 2-LP set with 32 tracks of which most are very good. A couple of them rare, previously only on B-sides or charity albums, also with a non-LP single from their second incarnation "Blond". All have initial mixes - mono or stereo - as they were. Audio is a bit softer than back then, but still very enjoyable. Cover laminated flip/back and inner sleeves has lots of pictures and info (in Swedish). One LP with the pop/r&b songs they did for Platina and one with the more psychedelic stuff from the Parlophone recordings. EMI even bothered to mimick the exact design from the original labels. So it's as close as you get to the sixties originals without actually being there. Favorite early pop cut "Don't Turn Your Back" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WxlYeSHHjs and from the later days "She's Having A Baby Now" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIDB8AYUUso . Also issued on CD (EMI - 4750292). (SCÄ*)(DÄXÖ*)(CCÖ*)
