I was always a fan of "Gary Pucket and the Union Gap." His tenor voice is still virtually unrivaled and the tones of his voice are distinct and unique. Although I don't recall most of the songs on this great CD, the ones that did make the top ten, like "YOUNG GIRL," make it worth the purchase. I think you will recognize about 1/3 of the cuts and instantly like the others. I had a "Best of Gary Puckett and the Union Gap" LP in my high school years and I played it until it was completely scratched; this was my chance to purchase a great CD compilation containing all those hits PLUS learn that he did his own take on such 60s classics as Glen Campbell's "By the time I get to Phoenix" and Bobby Goldsboro's "Honey." Gary Pucket can outsing the best of them! Remember this great artist with the purchase of this CD! A great deal and a great collection that I hope to enjoy for years. BUY AND ENJOY: it has not been removed from my CD changer since the day it arrived!Read full review
This CD is a necessity for all Gary Puckett & The Union Gap fans. It has their classic 1st 2 albums in full with every track, plus the hit singles that came after these 2 albums, as bonus tracks. All their biggest hits are here, but what is really essential are the full albums that contain many great songs. The 1st album not only has WOMAN WOMAN, but an uptempo song with horns that Gary really nails - M'LADY [ not the Sly & The Family Stone song ]. Also has more blue eyed soul greats like PAINDROPS, BELIEVE ME, I WANT A NEW DAY, and more. I always liked their original material better than their covers of the hits of the day, which are good for Gary's vocals, but not nearly as great as the hits & original songs that they recorded. A super CD LOADED with timeless songs!
I have several other GP collections but this one has his version of "Kiss Me Goodbye" which is one of my favorite records of all time (Not to mention one of the hardest to find!)! Tx!

Best Christmas gift for the Mother-in-law ever who we love and cherish! Could not find this anywhere until we looked on eBay which we should have done earlier and save time. Shipping was awesome and we were able to get it off in time for Christmas.
