"For a young guy who listens to the likes of Midnight Oil, Nirvana, and Outkast among others, take it from me, this is music at its best. Not a real fan of "oldies" music, but there's just something about the Drifters. I was first introduced to this fantastic group through the PBS show Reading Rainbow some 10 yrs ago. The song played was Up on the Roof, and i just couldn't get it out of my head. In fact, I was so enamored by this one song, that I rushed to the music store(this was before the MP3 revolution, so I actually bought a few cds back then) to purchase the first Drifters cd that contained it. Unfortunately, the song on the cd was a different verison than what I had heard on the TV(now u know why I love Mp3s). Don't worry though, this cd has the "better" version of Up on the Roof. And you want to know what? Golly gee Wally, I went ahead and bought it! Thanks Drifters!"

"This has most of the Drifters greatest hits- Up On The Roof, Save The Last Dance For Me, There Goes My Baby, Under The Boardwalk, and On Broadway. Plus all but 3 songs are in stereo, and it has the mono and stereo versions of Up On The Roof (my favorite Drifters song). This is great- and is cheap."
THE DRIFTERS AT THEIR ABSOLUTE BEST .
