Crap...why can't they issue what people want. Collections with all the good songs in complete form as on original album & throw in some great live tracks. Come Back version here is missing almost 2 minutes and Give It To Me close to 3 minutes shorter. Should include Musta Got Lost album version as one of their best. Should have just made it 2 discs & be done with it. They have plenty of great stuff for 2 complete discs.

Good selection of their music. Would have rather had less live music however on their more popular songs.
Because it includes "Come Back" and "Angel in Blue" - Reviewed on 2007-09-23

Rhino's 2-disc set left off two songs I really enjoyed. Though they weren't the biggest hits of the group's EMI years, "Come Back" (#32, 1980) was a sharp rock/disco hybrid and "Angel in Blue" (#40, 1982) was a nice slow song about a lady "who never had dreams, so they never came true." I didn't say they're classics, just that I liked them.

The down side is that 2 of the band's 3 biggest chart hits on Atlantic (Must of Got Lost and Lookin' For a Love) are presented in live versions. This is a one-disc collection that's pretty full, however (74 mins.). There wasn't enough room to show off the band's live prowess and still include every studio hit. And the live versions of Lookin' For a Love and Must of Got Lost are really good. Recommendation: enjoy the live stuff here and spring for the other "Best of". (The one with the bowling pins.)

if you are buying a J Geils CD, there has to be a better one. I am a non sophisticated buyer (don't remember names of songs, etc.), but enjoy many of J Geils songs, this CD lacks substance.

This has all the songs I love on one disc...would recommend to anyone who doesn't want to purchase every album J Geils has out.
