When [ORIGINAL RECORDINGS REMASTERED]

In the summer of 1958, Herb and Hal Kalin (aka The Kalin Twins) were flavour of the month with the multi million selling, worldwide smash hit "When". It reached #5 in the US and topped the UK charts for 4 weeks, following which they toured the UK, topping the bill over a newly-emergent Cliff Richards & The Drifters (who were just breaking with "Move It"). Although The Kalins subsequently made the US charts with follow-ups like "Forget Me Not", "It's Only The Beginning" and "Sweet Sugar Lips", they were unable to consolidate and by the mid 60s they'd called it a day. This 33 track compilation comprises their eponymously titled LP from 1958, plus all their significant 45 releases between 1957-1962, including their superb, yet often overlooked US cover of Joe Brown's UK #1 "A Picture Of You". Several of these sides are serious collector's rarities, unavailable elsewhere on CD.
