America, The Complete Greatest Hits
America, AmericaReviewed by Gary W. Dorrell, 2009-11-30
I just heard them live after all these years. I just had to grab an album. Classic stuff.
The best songs they ever recorded...Reviewed by Joy Andis, 2009-09-21
Were all compiled and put on this album. An earlier 'Greatest Hits'
has been out longer, but it was very lacking in the material, which
this album has.
America was one of those bands who had a very long run with a sound
that was, not unique by any means...just catchy. That catchiness
would eventually be made into their own style, and change and grow
with them. As the scope of Pop music changed, America made it
through those changes well enough...managing to have several hits
in several years that many people remember.
And just when the fickle record buying public was certain that
America was finished with their string of hits, they managed a
comeback with "You Can Do Magic", written and profuced by Russ
Ballard. Several more albums followed, and a few more hits for this
soft rock/folk duo.
It seems that when you get to the end of this lengthy cd, you feel
that there might have been more, well there was,it was just that
like most bands of their sound and time...they began playing to
smaller and smaller audiences, and they began releasing their newer
material on independent labels.
For anyone who either grew up with America, or has a fond
recollection of what they were doing when these songs were on the
radio, this is the album for you:)
Another America sampleReviewed by William M. Hamby, 2009-07-18
Jimmy Jam and his production team also sampled another America song. They used portions of Ventura Highway by America on Janet Jackson's hit "Someone to call my baby". Geat song too!!!
