Besides "Everything's Alright" - a Top Ten raver in the UK - they never scored any other British hits of note, though a couple squeezed into the Top 30. Bob Conrad (drums), Keith Karlson (bass), Stu James (vocals, harmonica), and Adrian Wilkinson (guitar) had first gotten together in the early 60s as The Nomads - though based in Liverpool, they were a bit different from most of the other Merseyside bands in that their first love was American blues rather than R&B and rock & roll, preferring to cover the works of John Lee Hooker and Muddy Waters to those of Chuck Berry or Little Richard. There have been a couple of other good Mojos compilations that have gathered most of this Merseybeat group's work, focusing wholly on their mid-60s Decca output. Since their Decca recordings comprise almost everything they released, there's not room for much more on a Mojos anthology. But "Everything's Alright: The Complete Recordings" does manage to beat out previous Mojos collections by a nose, for it includes not only all 17 of the tracks they issued on Decca between 1963-1967, but also the one they did for the 1963 "This Is Merseybeat, Vol. 2" compilation when they were still calling themselves The Nomads, as well as their obscure 1968 single for Liberty. These additions aren't exactly crucial: The Nomads cut, "My Whole Life Through", is basic to the point of rudimentary Merseybeat, while the 1968 single shows them moving into somewhat more modern late-60s pop/rock with unmemorable results. Still, with these additions and good historical liner notes, it stands as the absolutely definitive compilation of the Mojos' work. The 1963-1966 Decca sides comprising the bulk of the disc will remain what they're most known for, however, including some decent if somewhat second-rank Merseybeat (highlighted by the hit 'Everything's Alright'), the game attempt at pop-folk on their 1964 single "Seven Daffodils", and some poppier 1965 singles that show them moving in something of a Righteous Brothers direction. ┌────────┐ ────┤ Group ├───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── └────────┘
