Finally Found PussyCat.......2005-08-14

Of the Pussycat Gold collection my all time favorite is "Georgie" which I have been looking for for more than 30 years. This is my song - reminds me of 1976 when I was in love with my first love. Georgie is sharp,romantic and sensual. Just finding this song in this collection make this pt of gold a worhtwhile collection for any lover of of great 70 songs.

a classic album.......2005-08-02

Pussycat's Single Hit Collection is a classic album that deserves far more recognition both at the time of the vinyl release and now the CD. The group of girl singers from Holland harmonize as well as the Beach Boys ever did in their heyday. The songs are sentimental, hopeful, joyous and sad all at the same time with Mississippi and My Broken Souvenirs being the stand-out tracks. However the remaining tracks are only slightly behind making this CD a true treasure in your collection of Seventies music.

Dutch pop group sing about Mississippi.......2005-04-02

Pussycat were a pop group (four men, three women) from the Netherlands whose music was (for the most part) mainstream seventies pop, mainly recorded in English. They wrote most of their own material but they also recorded a few covers including It's the same old song (Four Tops). They recorded a well-balanced mix of up-tempo and slower songs.

Their claim to fame is a country-styled up-tempo pop song that they wrote about the American heartland - Greenville, Mississippi to be exact. They released the song in the UK, where Dutch pop singers had no previous record of success, and took it all the way to the top of the charts, knocking Dancing queen (Abba) off the top. It sat there for four weeks, eventually being replaced by another classic (If you leave me now - Chicago). In America, Barbara Fairchild, a country singer who learned about Pussycat's song on a visit to Europe, covered the song. Her version became a minor hit on the country charts but deserved to do much better.

Pussycat never repeated the success of Mississippi in the UK, though the follow-up, Smile, made the top thirty. Other songs that I particularly like include Georgie and If you ever come to Amsterdam, though another of my favorite Pussycat tracks (Mexicali lane) is missing from this particular compilation.

Pussycat are not essential to a collection of seventies music but there is more to their music than Mississippi.

A fan of rock, country etc.......2003-09-11

I think one of the best CD's from Pussycat.
I bought this CD for the track: Teenage Queenie.
Most people know Mississippi, Georgie is some of that kind.
My broken souvenirs is sensitive music.
Hey Joe is country-like and my favorite Teenage Queenie is
