Duped - I should have read the other reviews before I bought this. The song, Build Me Up Buttercup was okay, but the others were terrible. Too late I realized this was a remake with one of the Foundations singers, not the originals. A big mistake.
very dissapointed - The cd was misrepresented. These are not the original recordings. In the ad it did not state otherwise.
The Foundations - Build Me Up Buttercup (Prime Cuts) - I ve seen several other reviews/mentions where patrons note that the tracks on this CD aren t the original recordings.Not sure what they re talking about because these cuts seem to be the original mixes than I,personally remember.Especially the first two,Baby Now That I ve Found You and Build Me Up Butter Cup.A couple of others that I thought were decent include Lonely And Sad,You Can t Fool Me and No One Loves Me Like You Do.That s five good R&B laced soul goods out of ten.Not too bad.Line-up:Clem Curtis-vocals,Alan Warner-guitar,Pat Burke-sax,Eric Allen-trombone,Peter Macbeth-bass and Tim Harris-drums.For any young uns out there who might wish to purchase a copy for an elder,this artist might appeal to fans of Stylistics,Al Green,Chi-Lites and possibly Wilson Pickett.
DON T BUY THE REMIX - When you think the deal is too good, it is. I bought this because it said it was the original artists. IT IS NOT THE ORIGINAL RECORDINGS. When I listened to it in the car I had to laugh. I later saw the small print on the back of the cd case that stated it was rerecorded in 1994. Wish I would have read the other reviews before making my purchase.
Historical Group - A collectors item and one of the greatest albums in history during a time in music that defined who we are.
