The Platters were one of the world\'s most successful vocal groups during the 1950s, with 35 hit records, including four US #1s. The lead singer on all of these was the mercurial Tony Williams, a man with a perfect voice. The two compilations in this \"mini-series\" anthologise Tony\'s solo recordings between 1955-62, chronologically; Volume 1 deals with 1955-61, and Volume 2, with 1961-62. Volume 1 comprises his solo Mercury releases, notably his LP \"A Girl Is A Girl Is A Girl\" (1959); a couple of Platters singles on which he was given featured billing; and his early Reprise sides.
