Before sinking into the schmaltz of "Only Sixteen" and "Sharing The Night Together", Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show were actually one of the more hilarious bands in rock & roll. All of the songs on this compilation were written by Shel Silverstein, and there could have been no better interpreter than Dr. Hook. "Sylvia's Mother" is actually a beautiful tune, and "Cover Of The Rolling Stone" got them just that. The rest is pure comedy, with "Acapulco Goldie" being by far the finest of the lot.
Of course, an album from the 70's about smoking pot and skanky women gets old fairly quickly, no matter how well it's done. When I was 15, this was the greatest album in the world. Now? Not so much, although the best moments still shine like gold. [First added to this chart: 08/26/2025]

Bobby Darin's dream was to become bigger than Frank Sinatra. And while he never came close to that, he did have himself a nice little career as the bridge between the crooners of the 40's and the rock and roll of the 50's. Darin emerged from teen idoldom to becoming a survivor, one of the few voices of American rock in the early 60's when it looked like rock might die.
This collection (there is a volume 2 titled Mack The Knive) has several highlights, including his 1958 breakthrough "Splish Splash", "Dream Lover", "Queen Of The Hop", and his later, strange protest hit "Simple Song Of Freedom". This is a nice introduction to Darin's work, but it's since been far eclipsed by a very nice box set.
Darin died in 1973 at the age of 37. He was a major voice in American music...don't let this guy be forgotten. [First added to this chart: 08/08/2025]

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
