Weakest entry in an otherwise brilliant series.....................2002-03-24

Compared to the other volumes in the "Chart Toppers: Romantic Hits Of..." series, this installment is rather weak. Sure, there's a few good love songs to be found on this CD, but only several light up an otherwise dull compilation. If the truth be known, I found most of these songs somewhat depressing - especially Jim Croce's, "Time In A Bottle" and Don McLean's, "Vincent". I can't imagine ever being able to 'get-in-the-mood' with those melancholy tracks! It's worthwhile buying this if you've collected the first two volumes and are planning to purchase the next one too. But I'm sure you could find a better romantic 70s CD if you looked.

A very worthy CD to add to your 70's collection!!.......2001-01-25

At first I was skeptical about this CD. You see, I've been collecting 70's music for many years now. When I first started collecting they didn't have many collections of various hits all on one CD so I purchased several "Greatest Hits" CD's even if I only liked one or two songs on the CD. I know it seems silly but I am a fanatic about owning certain songs that I love! Now that my collection has grown it is getting more and more difficult to pick out CD's, so many times the songs overlap into songs I already own and I have to decide whether it is worth it. Well, I bought this particular CD especially for the songs "Poetry Man", "All by Myself", and "Precious and Few." I'm glad I did. I really don't mind the fact that I already have several of the other songs on Greatest Hits CD's. In fact, it's nice to have them all together on one CD to create the perfect mellow mood!

If you are looking for a blast from the past...........2001-10-03

Slow Ride and Woman from Tokyo were definitely not the original length, and I was quite disappointed. If you actually remember these songs, you will find yourself anticipating the next few bars of music, jamming along, and suddenly, BAM, it's cut off and skipped to another section! Despite the nice selection on this CD, having those two songs chopped up took away from the whole experience. I will be more careful next time!
