Various Artists - Everlasting: The Ritchie Adams Songbook, 1961-1968 ((Rock))

Ritchie Adams sprang to fame as both the lead singer of the hit making group, the Fireflies and as the writer of Bobby Lewis‚Äô ‚ÄúTossin‚Äô And Turnin‚Äô‚Äù ‚Äì the #1 single on the Billboard Hot- 100 for 1961, having spent an amazing seven weeks at #1. Upon leaving the Fireflies, he became one of the 60s‚Äô and 70s‚Äô most consistent songwriters. We feel, however, that this part of Ritchie‚Äôs career has not received the prominence it deserves, so we made Ritchie Adams the subject of this next CD in our Songwriters Masters Series and found 32 slices of 60s pop written by a maestro. 24 page full colour booklet with extensive liner notes and rare label scans and pictures. A wonderful insight into one of the great unheralded songwriters of the 60s. 1. The King - Ritchie Adams 2. Just For Tonight - The Chiffons 3. Tossin‚Äô And Turnin‚Äô - Bobby Lewis 4.
