LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

The Coasters’ 1960 “meet-the-band” LP wherein the singers are presented not as a group but as individual soloists, represented a complete departure from what the Coasters rose to fame for. If the previous material was marked musically by its rock and roll teen-age based orientation and a by a deeply satirical approach to the lyrics, this album is notable for his musical maturity instead, with swingin’, jazz-inspired arrangements brought by a full complement of musicians and an expensive production, resulting in a Coasters’ album that appealed not only to the youthful fan-base, but to adults of a more cultivated and advanced musical taste.
