Moody, atmospheric, a masterpiece of modality. A perfect record, quite possibly the best piece of music ever made.

A sentimental favorite. Amazing jazz sound, the piano talks to you. A perfect marriage, as if Schulz Peanuts and Guaraldi's score were floating around out there waiting to meet.

Oh, mercy, mercy, me...the best soul album of all time. A timeless album of a time. This album is so real it hurts.

This is exactly what a greatest hits album is supposed to be. The most popular songs of a band from the time stated in the title. The fact that it is the "greatest" rock n roll band in the world is the gravy.

Loud, invigorating, tumultous, angry, sorrowful... and maybe a bit pretentious. Never has this band sounded better. Great words, great music, great rock n roll.

I love Bossa Nova, and this is it's defining moment. Smooth, easy, sexy....Beautiful tone from all the players, and Astrud's breathy voice...sigh

Coincidentally, I happened to be in London when I first heard this very British sounding band. After hearing, I immediately bought the cassette, and for two weeks it never left my "Walkman". Perfect! The album's sound seemed so retro, yet so fresh, when released. It's pop, psychedelic, dance, acid house, all at once. No matter how you classify it, it's great from beginning to end.
