5 out of 5 stars Raw, simple and great !!!!.......2004-10-05

The Smithereens are one of the all time great three chord rock and roll bands whos music never goes out of style. This collection includes most of the tunes that you would want on a best of album. The material still sounds very timely as great rock and roll like this never goes out of style. If I were lost on a desert island, give me my T-Rex, Stones, Bazooka Jones and top it off with this record....simply great!

5 out of 5 stars Smithereens-Simply a GREAT BAND!!!!.......2004-03-18

I started listening to the Smithereens back in '89 when "Green Thoughts" came out. I don't even have to buy this particular "Best Of..." CD, and I already know it's great. The songs on it are staples for the band, and it's a shame they didn't get much radio play back in the 80's and 90's. "Only A Memory" is my all-time favorite song from the group...I first heard it watching the song's video on MTV, and I haven't stopped loving the song since. If you're looking for a Smithereens album that personifies how good this band is, GET THIS CD!!!!! It's worth the investment.
