A playful, girl group goddess in the '60s, Lulu came to prominence with the international hit \"To Sir with Love\" in 1967 (she had regional success with a version of the frat anthem \"Shout\" in 1964). Similar to contemporaries like Brenda Lee and Dusty Springfield, Lulu's raspy and rowdy singles began to peter out at the end of the decade, but she returned in the '70s with the hit \"Oh Me Oh My (I'm a Fool for You Baby),\" along with a string of marginally successful albums and collaborations before reinventing herself in the 1990s as a dance-pop diva. The Greatest Hits takes all of Lulu's phases into consideration, so fans who only followed the singer through her '60s heydays would be better off with To Sir with Love! The Complete Mickie Most Recordings, but listeners looking for a more comprehensive picture would do well to tune in to this fine collection of material from one of the U.K.'s most enduring and endearing talents. ~ James Christopher Monger\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: CD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2\/24\/2004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lulu","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44563269681385,"sku":"TGXOHH-BIJW-00","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/Lulu-GREATEST-HITS_kimDp.jpg?v=1758886270"},{"product_id":"james-bond-the-man-with-the-golden-gun-limited-picture-disc-vinyl-import","title":"James Bond: The Man With The Golden Gun (Limited Picture Disc Vinyl) [Import]","description":"\u003cdiv id=\"aec-product-description\" class=\"col-md-12 col-sm-12 col-12\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"aec-desc-review collapse\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA limited edition release of 1974's title song for The Man With The Golden Gun will be issued to celebrate 2024 Record Store Day.
