Summary: They actually sing!
Comment: Yes I am a guy and I like the Osmonds! Growing up I've always enjoyed the Osmonds, though I didn't know much about them. When I was a kid my sister would make me dress up and we would pretend to be Donny and Marie. I didn't mind since it gave me a chance to jump on my parent's bed as we pretended that it was a stage and we were performing our own concert.
Over the years, however, I always thought of the Osmonds as a cover band. I knew Donny's "Puppy Love" had been recorded earlier by several other artists that had hits with it, as well as most of Donny and Marie's music. Then when I moved to utah and met several of the Osmonds (Mostly the second generation) did I realize that they were a true rock band! They wrote their own songs! Performed their own music! Released their own albums! And pretty much all of it were far superior to most cover tunes. And these two albums are it! "Crazy Horses" and "The Plan."
Surprisingly, Alan is the best song writer of all time! Just listen if you don't believe me.

Summary: Osmonds first TRUE Classic Albums
Comment: I never heard the complete CRAZY HORSES album in it's entire form until 1985! I found it at a flea market and immediately loved it. It's definitely different than previous albums and their first that's really OSMOND-LIKE to me. The title song has been one of my favorite songs since I was a toddler. Hold her tight is also a rocking goodtime song that the brothers wrote. They wrote all of these songs and are truly amazing talents and performers. This is a great party album.
The Plan was a religious personal album for the family and I'm sure it's the Osmonds personal favorite. It is a great, inspirational album. Although, there are many uptempo rocking songs. This is an example of early christian rock... I'm not a Mormon, but can relate to the songs. "let me in" should have been a big hit for them in America. It's a beautiful song. Goin home reminds me of a "Crazy horses" sound and was a minor hit in America in the summer of '73. "Movie man" is a great song with a message. It was a #1 in France. I highly recommend buying this set of classic Osmonds from the early seventies-it's the beginning of many classics to come.

Summary: Ahead of Their Time!!!
Comment:
In Crazy Horses and The Plan, The Osmonds began their departure from the bubblegum music they were known for and started to seriously rock!!!
They wrote their own songs.
Something that they had wanted to do for a long time but was held back by their handlers at their time.
Their lyrics were contemplative and sophisicated.
"The Plan" is what Alan Osmond called "The Concept Album".
It talked about revelations and last days, about wars, about God, about who are we, where are we here, and where are we heading.
It was an album of serious reflections.
"Crazy Horses" was well known for its pollution issue and on that note, the Osmonds were well ahead of their time.
That song has since been covered by many other bands and it demonstrates that The Osmonds, while many were still so unwilling to give them their due credit, so many were still so willing to imitate.
Buy this cd before it become unavailable like the original releases.

Summary: Finally!
Comment: Finally! The Brothers' fourth and fifth studio albums, respectively, The Crazy Horses/The Plan disc represents, by far, the most sophisticated music of the band to that point. I remember being caught off-guard the first time I listened to the Crazy Horses LP, listening a second and third time to be sure I'd heard right the first time. This was defintely NOT J-5 Lite or teenybopper bubblegum. Even now, listening to the entire album for the first time in over 30 years, the organic feel seems very honest and pure, from a band playing just because it feels good to play. Everybody recognizes "Crazy Horses", with its classic organ intro, driving rhythm, and signature guitar riff, and the chugging opening bars of "Hold Her Tight" (perhaps borrowed from Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song", although the melody's power pop sound and lyrics take the song in a different direction), but there are several other hidden gems here. Borderline country-rocker "Life is Hard Enough Without Goodbyes", with Merrill's rapsy lead vocal, haunting guitar intro and hook, and the longing of the harmony vocals, should've been released as a single (or at least covered by the Eagles). The tender ballad "And You Love Me" captures the euphoria of being in love while showing admirable restraint, and "Utah" is a partying garage-band homage to their home state. "That's My Girl" might almost be a love song from a father to a daughter. The only throwaway in the bunch is "Julie", which ends the LP on a weaker note than it deserves, but the point of "Big Finish" is well-taken. The days of "One Bad Apple" are long gone.
The Plan was reissued a few years back, but its inclusion with Crazy Horses on this cd makes sense, for it helps show this inexplicably underrated band at its creative zenith. A concept album, The Plan reflects the band's spiritual journey, although the lyrics on most of the songs are ambiguous enough to be interpreted in a secular way. "Let Me In" showcases Merrill's soaring lead tenor over a lush arrangement of background harmony, while "One Way Ticket to Anywhere" is driven forward by Jay's insistent drumming and gruff (and underused) lead vocal. "Darlin'" is arguably one of the greatest pop love songs ever recorded. Wayne's baritone lead and foreboding guitar perfectly suit the dark, apocolyptic "Last Days", which is immediately followed by the hopeful, breezy "Goin' Home".
The packaging and notes are a notch above previous Osmond reissues, which is appropriate considering this is a milestone year for the Osmonds as an entertainment icon. The sound quality is excellent (I believe these tracks were taken from the original masters, although that's not obvious from the notes).

2008 release featuring these two classic Osmonds albums on one disc, available for the first time on CD. The Osmonds may have existed in one form or another before and after their massive '70s success but this is the first time in over 30 years that their musical legacy can be experienced in full. Crazy Horses was released in 1972, followed by The Plan, released the following year. Original LP artwork is complimented by in-depth liner notes and pictures of many European single sleeves. 24 tracks. 7Ts.
