Raspberries are a power pop/rock and roll band from Cleveland, Ohio, United States. They had a brief run of success in the 1970s with Beatleesque songs, recalling the heyday of the 1960's "British Invasion". Heavily influenced by the British Invasion era - especially The Beatles, The Who, The Hollies, and The Small Faces - and its mod sensibility, they helped pioneer the power pop style. Their best known songs include "Go All The Way", "Let's Pretend", "I Wanna Be With You", and "Overnight Sensation (Hit Record)". Producer Jimmy Ienner was responsible for all the Raspberries' albums in the 1970s, which often attempted to replicate Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound" production techniques. 1996 release on R.P.M. featuring the third & fourth album by Eric Carmen's early '70s power pop group together on one CD,1973's 'Side 3' and 1974's 'Starting Over'.
