The Best of Tommy Roe

by Tommy Roe

Overview

Curb's Best of Tommy Roe is an unsatisfying and schizophrenic collection that combines his classic bubblegum hits of the '60s with some non-hit material from the '70s. Unlike many Roe budget collections, "Sheila," "Sweet Pea," "Dizzy," and "Everybody" are the original hit versions. The rest of the tracks are easygoing country-rock tunes that are not especially noteworthy, certainly not hits and certainly not worthy of being side by side with his real hits. There are better places to get a hold of the hits, so give this disc a pass. ~ Tim Sendra
