So what are Sugar Pop Classics? Just incredibly tuneful, hook-filled gems from some of the most talented one-hit wonders (and some multi-hit artists) you could hear on the radio between 1966 and 1974. Polished to a fine-sounding gleam in this carefully remastered collection, here is nearly an hour's worth of Top 20 Pop hits you will surely remember and probably won't be able to stop humming. Features the famous sound and packaging quality found on all the Eric Hard To Find 45s on CD volumes: only the correct single versions from the master tapes in true stereo wherever possible. Includes a 12 page booklet with detailed biographies of all the artists by well-known music author Fred Bronson. The album producer's picks here include the fantastic Spector-esque concoction ''Sugar Baby Love'' by the Rubettes which virtually defines this genre. Too bad the song is so little known in the USA (but #1 in the UK). Also the eternally smooth 1900 Yesterday (a great song to wake up to) and the symphonic showmanship of Jefferson and Baby Take Me in Your Arms. All in the spectacular stereo they deserve!
