Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars This Is An Excellent Career Compilation.......2007-01-04

I grew up here in The Bay Area and saw Greg Kihn many times. He was always a first rate performer and wrote some great and catchy pop songs. He made you enjoy them with his passionate concert style. I actually never enjoy his hit singles (Jeopardy and others). The other songs on this disc, such as Madison Avenue Man, Love and Rock & Roll, Testify and a great cover of For You, are all very good examples of his talent and fun deliveries. He was great for his time (and still does a great morning show in The Bay Area to this day). A worthwhile and refreshing listen.

2 out of 5 stars Good compilation, but..........2006-07-04

I don't know why American "BEST OF" and "GREATEST HITS" CD compilations are always so 'fluffy'. Compare with any good Brit or German compilation, not only the song selection but the CD sound itself is ALWAYS BETTER!!! This 'KIHNsolidation' is no exception to the rule! Why not thinking about reissuing GREGROCKIHNROLLBAND and KIHNTINUED digitally remastered instead? Both are good pieces of the best American Rock'n'Roll!!!
Greg Kihn may not a be a rock Superstar, but he's certainly a serious and a good Rock music player!

3 out of 5 stars Forgotten Kihn.......2005-12-23

Greg Kihn is best known for his hit song "Jeopardy" which peaked at number two in 1983. While that is great song, there are other tracks on this expansive compilation that are worth a listen. "The Break Up Song" peaked at number 20 on the charts, but deserved much higher as it is Mr. Kihn's finest song and a great power pop record from the early 80's. "Madison Avenue", "Any Other Woman", "In The Naked Eye" and "Testify" are also worth a listen.

4 out of 5 stars Greg Kihn is Great!!.......2005-06-24

I listen to Greg Kihn on 98.5 KFOX radio weekday mornings. I wouldn't miss him.

It is great!!
