DESCRIPTION

TRACK LIST

The latest edition in Ace's songwriter series contains 25 hit songs and rarities penned by the team of P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri. In the four years of their partnership, Sloan & Barri wrote dozens of memorable, melodic pop and rock songs, in every flavour on the musical menu. From dance craze to hot rod to girl group to surfing to novelty to R&B to faux-British Invasion to folk rock, Sloan & Barri delivered the goods. They also pushed the envelope of what a pop song could be. On his own, inspired by folk musicians such as Pete Seeger, Odetta and Bob Dylan, Sloan sought to pen more introspective, personal songs. In his alter ego of P.F. Sloan, he pursued the rocky road of what he calls “people’s music”. The controversial ‘Eve Of Destruction’ brought him worldwide attention. This schizophrenic mix of vibrant pop-rock and more socially aware, questioning songs mightily confused Sloan’s peers and associates. Nonetheless, the Sloan-Barri team continued to write – and produce – dynamite pop material through 1967.
