Then & Now & Wow Review

by Andrew Hamilton

K-Tel Records has done music lovers a favor by issuing a dozen of the Jets' best recordings on this budget-priced compilation which also has a few later, less-familiar tracks. The Wolfgramm siblings explode on infectious numbers like "Curiosity," "Rocket 2 U," and sweet mid-tempo tracks with great hooks like "Cross My Broken Heart" and "That's Why God Made the Moon." They are no slouches, as slow jams "You Got It All" and "Make It Real" show. The rawer "Ooh Baby" presents yet another side of the remarkable family group from the isle of Tonga.
