The Righteous Brothers - Gold (2 CDs, 48 songs) - $7.39 prime

http://www.amazon.com/Gold-2-CD-Righteous-Brothers/dp/B000B8I8JG

Fantastic collection with amazingly good sound quality.  "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'" was the first record I ever bought.  Always liked the jazzy-if-slight B-side.

Brinsley Schwarz - OAS - $11.41 + $3.99
http://www.amazon.com/Original-Album-Brinsley-Schwarz/dp/B00NIUECBW

I remember seeing their albums in the stores in the early '70s, but I never heard anything of theirs.  What can you tell me about this group, besides the fact that Nick Lowe was in it?

Brinsley (and I think one or two others in the band) were also in Graham Parker's Rumour.

One of the primary (maybe THE primary) exponents of what was known as "Pub Rock", a basic, rootsy, stripped back, but tuneful and utterly enjoyable approach to rock.  If you like Dave Edmunds and early Nick Lowe, you'll like this.  I enjoy it immensely.

I bought a couple of their LPs back in the early 70's. I guess I've changed a lot since then, because I would have little to no interest these days.

Nice set if you are a completist for her work from that era (I am, but irrationally so), but otherwise you are better served by a good best of, as she was not really an album artist then.  Gets even more maddening because her US and British albums varied in content, so there is no clean way to get it all without a good bit of overlap.  I do strongly recommend this 30 cut beauty, available for $4.99 and shipping on Amazon Marketplace.
