40 Years: The Complete Singles Collection (1966-2006)

40 Years: The Complete Singles Collection (1966-2006)

You know how you see all those political ads that end with I m so-and-so, and I approved this message? Well, Tommy James himself approved this collection, so you know there ain t no hanky-panky goin on! It s the first to comprehensively span Tommy s career both with the Shondells and as a solo artist, featuring the A-side of every single the man released on six different labels from 1966 to 2006, with in-depth liner notes penned by Ed Osborne and photos from the artist s personal archive. And, much like we did with our recent Jan & Dean collection, we are bringing you the original single versions, not the remixed versions you find on most collections. In fact, the first 15 tracks are in their original mono, almost all of which have NEVER come out on CD; we lead off with the original slower version of Hanky Panky that appeared on the Snap label, followed by the classic Roulette singles Say I Am (What I Am); It s Only Love; I Think We re Alone Now; Mirage (with an extra vocal overdub not found on the stereo version); I Like the Way; Gettin Together; Out of the Blue; Get Out Now; the original single mix and edit of Mony Mony; Somebody Cares (with extra, mono-only overdubs); the original, sped-up single master of Do Something to Me with extra overdubs; the single edit of Crimson and Clover; Sweet Cherry Wine; Crystal Blue Persuasion; Ball of Fire; She; Gotta Get Back to You (the original single mix, not the one on Rhino s Anthology), and the original, shorter single version of Come to Me. Those are the Shondells sides; now come Tommy s solo singles (many of which have never been on CD!): Ball and Chain; Church Street Soul Revival; Adrienne (from the original, sped-up single master); Draggin the Line (original single mix with extra horn overdubs); I m Comin Home (original, sped-up single master); Nothing to Hide; Tell Em Willie Boy s A-Comin ; Cat s Eye in the Window; Love Song; Celebration; Boo, Boo, Don t Cha Be Blue; Calico (the pop version that charted, not the jazz version on Rhino s Anthology); Glory Glory; I Love You Love Me Love; Tighter, Tighter; Love Is Gonna Find a Way; Three Times in Love; You Got Me; You re So Easy to Love; Say Please; Go; You Take My Breath Away; Who Do You Love; I Love Christmas (full version with a cappella chorus, never officially released); Sweet Cherry Wine; Isn t That The Guy; Love Words; Hold the Fire, and, to end the collection, Long Pony Tail, a track Tommy cut with Tom & the Tornadoes way back in 1962! Don t miss this Collectors Choice Music exclusive from one of the great pop-rockers of all time.
