New Four Seasons fan September 30, 2008
I went to see Jersey Boys, the musical. Wanted to hear the original FRankie Valli and Four Seasons, so ordered this CD and was not disappointed. All their best well known hits included.Quality of recording pretty good.
It is what you expect September 12, 2008

This album certainly must be considered four or five stars. It is exactly what you expect in a "very best": 20 songs, including six #1s and almost every one at least a top-ten hit. The songs I wanted were right there.
The book is a nice history of the band, written in a positive style, naturally. For you "Jersey Boys" watchers, the departure of Tommy merits only a single sentence, with none of the financial challenges mentioned. Inclusion of the lyrics might have been a nice touch, but you know almost all of them anyway, don't you?
The only area somewhat lacking is the quality of the sound. We must remind ourselves that the original 1960s recordings can only be pushed so far. Thus, they sound a little thin by modern standards of depth and richness.
My particular CD had a few rough spots and drop-offs when run on a simple CD player. Fortunately, after ripping the tunes to my PC, they sounded fine. Whew.
 Excellent Compilation - Acceptable Recording Quality September 11, 2008

I thought this is an excellent selection of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons greatest hits.
I'm sure the audio engineers did the best they could with the recordings. All of the trackes are very clean, but I thought it was a shame that the older tracks lacked the stereo "depth" of the newer tracks. By comparison, the "Jersey Boys" soundtrack takes full advantage of the improvements in recording technology and so breathes a lot of life into these older songs. However, that CD is comprised mostly of faster versions and medleys in order to fit the format of a stage show.
In the final analysis, I think that both CDs are worth purchasing.

Just went to New York City and saw the Broadway Show.
The Jersey Boys. Wonderful performance, so had to
buy this CD to continue enjoying their special sound.
Brings back memories that are good!
