专辑介绍

by Richie Unterberger

The Olympics' 1966 LP Something Old, Something New was an odd proposition. Side one was &old,& featuring a half-dozen of their most popular singles from the late '50s and early '60s, including &Western Movies,& &Hully Gully,& &Big Boy Pete,& &Shimmy Like Kate,& and &The Bounce.& Side two was &new,& presenting a half-dozen recent recordings -- none of them particularly commercially successful -- with much more of an updated mid-'60s contemporary sound. While these new recordings weren't bad, they weren't nearly as strong or distinctive as the more Coasters-styled early rock & roll on side one. So what you had was an LP that likely pleased few, as it was half a greatest-hits collection and half a record representative of where the Olympics were in 1966. Although the music is fairly strong, you're much better off finding it on a greatest-hits collection; Varese Sarabande's Very Best of the Olympics, for instance, has nine of the 12 tracks.
