The Definitive Collection

by Tony Orlando & Dawn, Tony Orlando

Overview

True to its title, the 18-track The Definitive Collection gathers all of the Tony Orlando & Dawn you could possibly want. Starting at the very beginning of the '70s and going strong for a good half-decade, the pop-meets-vaudeville trio managed three number one singles before the Top 40 rolled them out for good. All of the huge hits are here -- "Candida," "Knock Three Times," "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree," "Say, Has Anybody Seen My Sweet Gypsy Rose," "He Don't Love You Like I Love You" -- along with a handful of lesser tunes like "Steppin' Out (Gonna Boogie Tonight)." This is your one and only stop for Orlando's contribution to the annals. ~ Michael Gallucci
