Rhino Captures Another Era and Time June 16, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Rhino Records does it again. This 4 C.D. box set captures the San Fransisco, West Coast Sound of the mid to late sixties. If you lived in the Bay Area at that time, I highly recommend this box set. I was living in Hawaii at the time and i remember a lot of these tunes, which i haven't heard since that time. I feel that they could have added another disc of the really commercial stuff that we are all familiar with, but i guess with licensing problems and such. The folks who will appreciate this set the most will be the baby boomers. You know the sole suvivors of that great time in music.
If you hear the song I sing, you must understand. October 1, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This box set is devoted to the San Francisco rock music scene of the second half of the 1960s. It comes in a hardcover book filled with lots of information, plus beautiful photographs of the performers. The four CDs feature music by performers both well known (Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane) and obscure (Public Nuisance, The Ace of Cups). The vast majority of the songs featured here will be unknown to most listeners. Not every song is great, but most of them are quite enjoyable. This set is well worth getting for fans of '60s rock music.
Thin Overview November 2, 2007 0 out of 22 found this review helpful
I'm not sure what the purpose is of this box set. There was so much music, by all these bands, that to throw some of it in a box, as if it belonged together, does a disservice to the music, musicians and the era it proposes to commemorate. The common denominator might be San Francisco but there was great diversity with-in the scene. That's what made Frisco in the '60's great. I can't fault the music but I think it distorts a picture that has never been taken. This box set,as good as it might be,does not begin to tell the tale it advertises on the box.
