Both these are original album series from Collectables and have plenty of stereo tracks in the best possible sound quality.PS BEWARE many CD's of the Drifters especially contain non original versions,as their career spans over 3 decades they had plenty of opportunity to re record their hits many times over.ALL THE RECOMMENDATIONS I HAVE MADE HAVE THE ORIGINAL HIT VERSIONS,PLEASE SEE MY OTHER REVIEWS. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Superb round-up of a top vocal group *by D***F on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 14 April 2017* Having been taken see Stand By Me - The Ben E.King and Drifters show I realised that The Drifters had recorded many more great songs than I'd thought. It didn't take long for me to identify that this compilation contains just about every track a casual fan would want. 58 songs covering about as many changes of personnel and 50 years shows that despite that ever fluid line-up the quality control lever has been consistently high. Early stormers like Ruby Baby and Drip Drop sit comfortably alongside arguably their golden era at the end of the 50's and start of the 60's, as well as some marvellous later hits. Pretty much anyone with even a modest knowledge of music will be familiar with the big hits on show here as soon as they play if not by title, here's just a few of them:Save The Last Dance For Me, Up On The Roof, On Broadway, Under The Boardwalk, Saturday Night At The Movies, Come On Over To My Place, Like Sister And Brother, Kissin' In The Back Row Of The Movies, There Goes My First Love, Every Night's A Saturday Night With You, You're More Than A Number In My Little Red Book.All these tracks plus many others I've become quickly accustomed to show the strength in depth of the back catalogue. Above all what comes across clearly is this is very happy music - it's almost impossible to resist humming or singing along, or simply smiling to many of these infectious tracks. Every time I've played this compilation I've been left with a lovely, warm sense of enjoyment. This really is a quality compilation thanks to the various record companies involved during The Drifters' long career licencing the very best from their output to make what for my money really is the definitive overview of a top vocal band. If you only buy one Drifters album I'd strongly recommend this one. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars The Drifters *by J***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 29 December 2020* While There Are Countless " Greatest Hits " Issues For This Legendary Group, I Feel This Twin CD Set Contains The Best Of The Rest....Of Course There Are The Bog-Standard Tracks Of Their Number Ones And Top Tens Throughout Their Long History -( Mostly With ATLANTIC Records ) With The Great Lead Singers: Clyde McPhatter -Ben E.
