The Very Best Of Herman's Hermits [emi]

Herman's Hermits includes: Peter Noone. Recorded between 1964 & 1970. One of the most readily accessible groups ofthe British Invasion, Herman's Hermits, led by charismatic vocalist Peter Noone, became highly successful in the mid-1960s with a sunny pop tune ("I'm Into Something Good") and lighthearted cockney-tinged ditties ("Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter, " "I'm Henry the VIII, I Am"). While these hits are presented on this 25-track collection, THE VERY BEST also includes other gems such as "Dandy, " a jaunty Kinks cover, and the buoyant "There's a Kind of Hush, " making it one of finest Herman's Hermits compilations on the market.

"Record Collector (magazine) (p. 95) - 4stars out of 5 -- "If pop is all about the big-hitting and transient, dwell a while on the beauty of Herman's Hermits. "
