Anthology (1962-1974) Review
07/13/2005 5:30 AM, AMG
For some listeners, a double-disc of the Righteous Brothers might seem like overkill, but Anthology 1962-1974 should silence most skeptics. Over the course of the two discs, it becomes clear that the duo were the finest blue-eyed soul singers of their era. Not only do the hits ("Little Latin Lupe Lu," "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling," "Unchained Melody," "Ebb Tide," "(You're My) Soul and Inspiration," "Rock and Roll Heaven") retain their power, there are numerous forgotten gems, like the harder-rocking "Justine" and an excellent version of "This Little Girl of Mine." For listeners who want to dig a little deeper into the Righteous Brothers' music than the hits, they'll be generously rewarded by Anthology. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
