Customer Reviews:

Great Album.......2007-02-07

If you enjoy Three Dog Night, this is the album for you. I have played this CD way too much since I purchased it. The songs are still as fresh as they were 30 years ago and the sound quality is wonderful. Highly recommend if you are a fan.

Greatest Hits for the Greatest Price.......2002-10-01

I will take this from the GREATEST HITS perspective. We have the Millenium Collection, a few multi-disk anthologies, GOLDEN BISQUITS, and this import. This is by far the best deal for those who just want the hits, and not all the album tracks, (and there are quite a few good ones).

All of the singles are here, from the biggest (Joy To The World) to personal favorites like "Out In The Country". It would be redundant to go track by track, since like Creedence Clearwater in the same time frame, they were Single Machines who also put out great albums as well.

If you want just the best for a good price, this is it. If you want a completist collection, go for the multi disk anthology.

You can't go wrong with the music, for one of the best Vocal Bands of the era, with the tightest backup band since Booker T's MG's.

Comprehensive Collection.......2001-01-16

A very comprehensive collection of their late 60s/early 70s hits. When they were good, they were brilliant, as demonstrated in the exuberant Joy To The World, the moody, atmospheric Mama Told Me Not To Come (a description of a weird party), and the reggae rhythms of Black & White (first done by Greyhound), Show Must Go On (a Leo Sayer song) and Family Of Man. But their slower soft rock ballads like Old Fashioned Love Song, Never Been To Spain etc. never appealed to me although they were big hits. This band is hard to classify, they strode the rock/pop divide with great aplomb, perhaps like Paul Revere & The Raiders.

Good by modern standards, too.......2000-06-13

Some people review CDs like this from a historical perspective. That's fine, but I prefer to pretend it was just released, and examine its musical value. There's a lot of good stuff, 20 whole tracks, of which three are outstanding: Joy to the World, Old Fashioned Love Song, and Black and White. I remember Joy from my college days. "Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea" would amuse my chess-playing friends every time it came on the radio, as "fish" is a derogatory term for a weak chess player. We were all fish. And we can all enjoy the same music today, whatever the context.
