GENE PITNEY was one of the most prolific and successful international artists of the 1960s, releasing some twenty-five albums and around thirty-five singles. However, over the decadesGene s back catalogue was subject to some fairly cavalier repackaging.
In the late 1990s, Sequel Records paired up Gene s original LPs as 2- on-1s, along with relevant bonus tracks and all mastered from first-generation tapes. Pitney himself was delighted with the results, but sadly Gene died in 2006 whilst touring the UK, by which time these 2-on-1s had long been deleted. However, thanks to RPM, these well-regarded compilations are once again available.
Gene’s debut album, The Many Sides Of Gene Pitney, was the first LP released on the Musicor label in February 1962. Containing his first four Asides and no less than nine songs written by Pitney himself, The Many Sides Of comprised from Gene's songwriting demos and early singles, was rushedreleased in the USto cash in on the success of 'A Town Without Pity , which itself peaked at #13, eventually selling a million copies worldwide.
Follow-up LP Only Love Can Break A Heart, released in November 1962 off the back of the same-named US Top 10 single, became his first chart album and spawned further US hit singles in the shape of Half Heaven, Half Heartache and True Love Never Runs Smooth. It remains one of the strongest albums of the era - far better than many artists Greatest Hits sets.
