Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Music That Makes You Smile.......2007-07-14

These are the original arrangements and recordings that caused folks like me to love the 5th Dimension. Their musical blends, harmonies, and arrangements are rare finds these days. This is an excellent compilation if you are a fan of the group.

5 out of 5 stars Not 'square' anymore.......2007-05-07

Growing up in the late '60s, it was decidedly 'square' to like The Fifth Dimension. Nevertheless, their precision harmonies and slick production really etched themselves into the 60's collective consciousness.

40 years later, it's okay to admit that they are part of the soundtrack of a great many lives, and this collection covers the high points without beating that consciousness to death.

A real trip down memory lane!

5 out of 5 stars Great Real R&B Music.......2007-03-04

This is one of the 1st real R&B music groups that can really sing.

4 out of 5 stars 5th Dimension Classics.......2007-01-29

Great CD with every song you could want,except for one of my favorites... Never My Love.. originally recorded by The Association. The 5th Dimension put their signature sound on it and i've never heard it performed better! Other than this CD omitting this wonderful song, it's a definite keeper!

5 out of 5 stars PLEADING THE FIFTH.......2006-01-07

THE VERY BEST OF THE FIFTH DIMENSION: Call them the black Mamas and the Papas if you want; unbelievably, the Fifth Dimension sounded even whiter than the Supremes. Marilyn McCoo's cool flair with a pop number and the group's knack for covering some of the best song craftsmen of their era (Laura Nyro, Jimmy Webb, etc.) resulted in an unbroken string of Top 40 gems from the late sixties through the early seventies. Although McCoo's husband, Billy Davis Jr. succeeded in piercing the gang's RNB bubblegum with a delicious blast of gospel grit on the second half of AQUARIUS/LET THE SUN SHINE IN (from the smash musical HAIR), for the most part, the 5D were as safe as Three Dog Night and the Grass Roots. The highlights---Up, Up and Away, Sweet Blindness, One Less Bell to Answer, Workin' On a Groovy Thing, Stoned Soul Picnic, Last Night I Didn't Get to Sleep at All---are many here, from five talented performers more than able to take vocal harmony to another dimension.

3 out of 5 stars Save Your Money...there's nothing new here.......2001-01-09

As one of many 5D "Best Ofs," this (Japanese?) release doesn't have anything that the others are missing. In other words, there isn't a single track on this CD that doesn't appear on another digital collection. And though it's an excellent sampler of the 5D's hit catalog, it's price is completely out of line with similar import collections, which is why this is only a '3 star' release in my opinion. Unless you are a 5D completist, and can't live without this disc's obi strip and somewhat 'original' packaging, spend your hard-earned money elsewhere. 5D's "Definitive Collection" (on the domestic Arista label) is a two disc release that is both cheaper and more comprehensive than this release.
