16 Fabulous Hits [Import]

A gathering together of Fabian's numerous singles for the Chancellor label, including a fair smattering of B sides, most of which would usually get overlooked in any career retrospective. There again, that is the advantage of this album, which was originally released in 1962; Chancellor were unsure how long a career Fabian might enjoy, so they wasted little time in getting as much material out to the market as was possible. There are plenty of hits in among the 16 tracks, of course, meaning this just about lives up to it's title. Hallmark.
