Brill Building tunesmith Paul Evans' impressive body of work receives deluxe treatment on the excellent Happy-Go-Lucky Me: The Paul Evans Songbook. A good anthology plays like a time line, and U.K. label Castle Music has done a fine job collecting the hits, demos, and previously unissued tracks from his 50-year career. His only Top 20 hits as a performer, "Seven Little Girls," "Midnight Special," and the irresistible "Happy-Go-Lucky Me," reside among songs penned for other artists, like Bobby Vinton's "Roses Are Red (My Love)" and the Ray Coniff Singers' wonderfully goofy "Happiness Is," all performed by Evans. Also featured is a 1998 autobiographical track called "I Was a Part of the 50's" and an interview by writer/producer Stuart Colman. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
