Notes: Issued in 2008, this 16-track compilation cherry-picks a fine selection of Grammy-winning pop songs from the 1960s, '70s, and '80s. From Petula Clark's boisterous ode to urban life, "Downtown," to the romantic anthem "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes, CLASSIC POP offers up an appealing chronologically ordered collection, making room for undisputed mini-masterpieces such as Harry Nilsson's wistful "Everybody's Talkin'" and the Bee Gees' serene "How Deep Is Your Love." A collection of 16 past Grammy winners in the pop category, this set includes such undeniable classics as Petula Clark's jaunty "Downtown," the Mamas & the Papas' hauntingly accurate "Monday, Monday," and Harry Nilsson's definitive cover of Fred Neil's "Everybody's Talkin'," making this a pleasant listen for a morning's drive down nostalgia boulevard. ~ Steve Leggett
