180 Gram Vinyl Record |
180-gram vinyl, mono edition
Originally released in the U.S. in 1966, Beat Group! was the American cousin to the Hollies' British LP Would You Believe?. However, identical cousins they were not: Beat Group! boasts substantially altered musical content and completely different cover art. Led by the snap-jangle-pop of the smash single, "I Can't Let Go," the album is a thrilling combination of originals and R&B covers ripped from their riotous live sets. Highlights include commanding versions of Buddy Holly's "Take Your Time," Sam and Dave's "I Take What I Want" and the Otis Redding/O.V. Wright classic "That's How Strong My Love Is." Original songs "Hard Hard Year," "Oriental Sadness" and "Fifi the Flea," along with Mersey Beat staples "A Taste of Honey" and "Mr. Moonlight" round out the disc.
Out of print for decades, this classic album is FINALLY available again. Sourced from the aurally awesome original U.K. mono master, this LP is pressed on pristine 180-gram vinyl per your turntable's request. Get in the queue!
