Inside The Groove

This album contains sixteen big hits of that time on Mercury labels. Some songs have been evergreen, others just old boring tunes :-P

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Why I bought this vinyl? Well it's ONLY because it contains a famous number-one song by Brook Benton :)

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)
