Songs From the TV Series Six - Five Special Review

SONGS FROM THE TV SERIES SIX-FIVE SPECIAL!
Review by Allen Pollack

Recalling the celebrated 1957 television series, this is the Original album recorded with screaming girls between tracks to suggest a live ambiance and allowing the John Barry Seven to open with the appropriate LET'S HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME.  Frequent guests are naturally represented and include Jim Dale (CRAZY DREAM), The King Brothers (COLD, COLD SHOWER) Laurie London ( PICK A BALE OF COTTON) and the energetic Don Lang ( YOU STARTED SOMETHING ) whilst Jimmy Jackson contributes the apt SIX-FIVE JIVE but Adam Faith who also appeared frequently on the shows sits this one out. Seventeen bonus tracks help fill the disc with more of the same extracted from various singles; bringing in Petula Clark to represent otherwise absent females- after all she appeared in the film version singing BABY LOVER. All good fun from a less complicated age

Available on Amazon an iTunes UK and Amazon CD
