An impressive package put out by the folks at Bear Family Records. Mickey and Sylvia will always be remembered for the tittle track "Love Is Strange" which marked their rise and fall. there are a few other tracks in this set such as "Dearest", "Bewildered" and "There Oughta Be A Law" which tried to capitalize on their big hit but with no luck. Mickey & Sylvia do a great job on their take of "This Is My Story" but then I am a sucker for a Doo Wop ballad with a saxophone. The hidden gem on this set for me is "Gypsy" which I was not familiar with until listening to it on this CD.
4 out of 10
