The Rascals-"Time Peace: The Rascals' Greatest Hits" (1968)

First as The Young Rascals and then simply as Rascals, this band was during the period between 1966 and 1968 one of the favorites of young Americans, which would take them one after another to all their albums to No. 1 in the American ranking.
Formed in 1965 by their leader Felix Cavaliere as organist, Gene Cornish as guitarist, Eddie Brigati on drums and Ding Danelli on drums.
With their second single "Good Lovin´" (1966) they obtain very important figures in sales, far exceeding one million copies worldwide.
After this came a series of great singles such as "Come On Up" or "Too Many Fish in the Sea", until in 1967 they jumped to world number one with a song titled "Groovin", which delights the whole world.
After this great impact, they reduced their name and began a long six of hits based on half black music based on rhythm and blues, with enough personality to make them different due to their innovation.
Already in 68 they get several gold records again thanks to "Beautiful Morning" and "People Got to Be Free", by then the “boom” elevates them to world fame.
In all this development, its leader Cavaliere, its main composer, has a lot to do with it his musical ideas are going to be those that between 1969 and 1971 sustain the group, but which nevertheless gradually dismembers until only Cavaliere himself and Danelli.
Later both would give shape to their most ambitious project, a double album entitled "Peaceful World", which is nothing more than a long suite divided into several parts, with a deep musical richness, which once again confirms the privileged and solid musical culture of Cavaliere, one of the best musicians of the sixties who contributed unforgettable works of great compositional beauty.
