Search - Freshmen :: When Summer Comes: The Pye Anthology

The Freshmen were Ireland's own Beatles or Beach Boys. They dominated not only the showband circuit during the 1960s & 1970s but also the pop charts. Instead of relying on the showband tradition of contemporary pop covers, The Freshmen carved out a niche in West Coast-influenced harmony pop, making them favorites of Castle Music's critically-acclaimed Ripples series. When Summer Comes contains The Freshmen's entire output for Pye Records between 1965 & 1969. It includes their rare album Movin' On, plus non-album singles & earlier tracks crediting Billy Brown & Derek Dean. Most tracks have never been on CD. 25 tracks. 2001.
