This is a concept album on the subject of finding, and holding on to, love from a urban hipster's point-of-view. Nat Cole is the suave narrator on this journey through "Hundreds of Thousands of Girls" that will, ultimately, end with the playboy opting out of the swinging life for "The One". Excellent vocals from the Master of Smooth and you can't go wrong with arrangements by the incomparable Nelson Riddle whose orchestra ably assists in setting the perfect cosmopolitain backdrop for each song. I recommend this to anyone looking for romantic trip with one of the best tour-guides in the biz. As an added bonus, the gatefold cover comes with an eleven page full-color photobook tipped-in with some great 60's stock photography and musings on the art of love like: "Love will find you someday. But why wait? This could be the night! So get out on the boulevard and make the scene..." Even the catalog number was sexy! Nat "King" Cole - Wild i...

The coolest thing I know about this album is that the 5th Dimension played a singing group invovled in a mystery on a TV show called " It Takes a Thief " starring Robert Wagner . It was on that show that the single "Puppet Man" debuted. I imagine that helped it sell like hotcakes as the group was still riding high on the strength of "Aquarius". As for the album itself, the standouts are "Puppet Man", "One Less Bell to Answer", "This is Your Life" and the supremely cheesy (like a frozen pizza), faux-radical nod to the "younger folk" (i.e.: hippies and hippie wannabes) of the "Medley: The Declaration / A Change Is Gonna Come / People Gotta Be Free". This was part of the soundtrack to my "rose coloured glasses" youth a few years before the end of the Vietnam War changed the culture of the US to one that was much less optimistic and more cynical.

This is a great West Coast hip-hop CD by a guy who never made it. It was given to me by my friend Jeni Morrell, one of the hippest hotties I know.

I just got this at Som Records . This place is awesome to be so small. According to the liner notes Scene 70 was a weekly TV show seen "...on over 115 markets nationwide..." from 1970 to 1971. It was a showcase for some of the top pop and rock acts as well as fresh, new talents and presented them (presumably live and lipsyncing) in settings from San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge to the Atlantic City Boardwalk. It was hosted by Jay Reynolds and featured the Scene 70 Action Dancers. This must have been a cool show to see.
