The Vogues - Greatest Hits (1988)

A doo wop vocal group from the Pittsburgh area, the Vogues started well in the mid-’60s with “You’re the One,” an infectious bit of folk-rock with enough of a British Invasion feel to earn it heavy play on AM radio. “Five O’Clock World” was an even better single, a two-minute blast of timeless release, chronicling the feel of getting off work with the whole night still ahead, that one instant when everything is a possibility and the future has not yet arrived with its schedule of deadlines and pressures. Few pop songs have ever caught that moment with more élan or conviction. Continue reading “The Vogues – Greatest Hits (1988)”
