The Brooklyn Bridge.......2006-03-19

Excellent,package delivered neatly and promptly and exactly as shown on the site!

One of my first CD's...and still one of my favs.......2005-12-30

Back in 2001 I just started getting cd's, and this one was one of my firsts I got. Now even though I've evolved more into the world of Psych. I still listen to this great cd. The songs "Glad She's A Women" and "Blessed Is The Rain" are especially good. They kinda make me feel rested and relaxed. All in all a great compilation of a great group.

A TRULY WONDERFUL COLLECTION. . ........2004-12-29

The former frontman for the legendary Crests and the Del-Satins, Johnny Maestro (John Mastrangelo), took lead vocals once again with this late 60s/early 70's pop vocal group. Unusually large at ten to eleven members, their sound was smooth and heartfelt (think Fifth Dimension crossed with the Association). They signed with Buddah and issued their first LP in 1969, scoring big with "The Worst That Could Happen" and "Blessed Is The Rain". Their subsequent LPs failed to generate the same sales as the debut, even though finely textured songs such as "Your Husband My Wife" and "Minstrel Sunday" continued their beautiful, romantic style. Kudos to the Collectables label for issuing a Best Of on LP, and eventually on CD. Twelve slices of Pop heaven, led by the incomparable Johnny Maestro. Enjoy!

A CD YOU'LL PLAY OVER AND OVER AGAIN.......2003-06-25

As lead singer of the Crests, Johnny Maestro established himself as one of the premier male vocalists of the late fifties and early sixties. In addition to his hits with the Crests, Maestro also recorded a number of solo hits including "What A Surprise" and "Model Girl". In the late 1960's, Johnny Maestro re-emerged on the scene as the leader of the unusually large group called the Brooklyn Bridge. Maestros vocals remain powerful and passionate. My personal favorites on this compilation include "Welcome Me Love", "Your Husband, My Wife" and "Blessed Is The Rain".
The group still performs today and I am told put on a tremendous show. Do yourself a favor and pick up this CD. It will put a smile on your face for years to come.

Don't settle for remakes.......2000-12-16

This CD has all the original recordings. It's superb!! I have heard 3 versions of Welcome Me Love and Blessed Is The Rain, and although they are still good, the originals are still the best!! You won't be disappointed with this purchase, it's truly The Greatest (and original) Hits of Johnny Maestro and The Brooklyn Bridge. P.S. Their concerts are still fantastic to this day. Great band!!
