  • All Music Guide

    As part of Collectables' Great Group Series, the Crests are featured on this budgetpriced compilation. Among the ten tracks are the original versions of their two charttopping hits, "Sixteen Candles" (1958) and "Earth Angel" (1959), along with lesserheard items such as "The Angels Listened In," "In the Still of the Night," and "I Thank the Moon." Even though this compilation is missing "Step by Step" and "Trouble in Paradise," it's an enjoyable and effective overview.
