(5 out of 5 stars)

"20th Century Rocks, Volume 5: '60s Rock N Roll - It's My Party is fifty minutes and twenty-six seconds long and was released on May 13, 1997. Of the twenty songs on it, only three are original recordings. The rest are stereo recordings. The three are: Paul & Paula-Hey Paula, The Hollywood Argyles-Alley Oop, and The Fendermen-Mule Skinner Blues. Seven songs on this CD went to number one. He's So Fine by The Chiffons spent four weeks at number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and U.S. Billboard Hot Rhythm & Blues Sides. Tied with the Chiffons is Runaway by Del Shannon who spent four weeks at number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 charts. This is very good party music. 20th Century Rocks, Volume 5: '60s Rock N Roll - It's My Party gets an A+.
