Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars SOME OF THE BEST SONG'S BY ONE OF THE BEST BAND'S.......2006-04-25

THERE ARE ALOT OF LYNYRD SKYNYRD GREATEST HIT'S OUT THERE.
ALMOST TO MANY TO COUNT THERE ARE BARGIN~BIN CD'S,SINGLE~DISC & 2~DISC SET'S.BUT IN MY OPINION THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST BECAUSE IT IS ALL STUDIO VERSION'S OF THE SONG'S. MOST OF THE GREATEST HIT'S CD'S I OWN BY LYNYRD SKYNYRD HAVE ALOT OF LIVE SONG'S ON THEM.
I AM NOT A FAN OF LIVE SONG'S ON A CD UNLESS IT IS ALL LIVE.
IF YOU LIKE ALL STUDIO VERSION'S LIKE I DO THIS IS THE GREATEST HIT'S FOR YOU.THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT THERE IS NO "FREE BIRD"!.
HOW COULD YOU LEAVE OUT ON OF THE MOST FAMOUS SONG'S OF ALL TIME.
THAT IS WHY I GAVE THIS 4 STAR'S INSTEAD OF 5.BUT OTHER THEN THAT THIS IS A PERFECT GREATEST HIT'S FOR A PERFECT BAND!.

3 out of 5 stars Recycled.......2001-07-02

Made in UK in 2001, Serial# 544-451-2, Playing Time 74:23

This is probably the 10th compilation of LS to come out in the last few years. Like most (but not all), this one offers nothing unusual.

Lifting tracks from their early albums (up to "Street Survivors"), this album has lost 2 stars, 1 for each of the following reasons:

1) for mis-representing its content (this is NOT Amazon.com's fault: they just list what's on the back panel of the CD): tracks 2,3 and 8, listed as "original versions" (i.e. the MUSCLE SHOALS sessions) are in fact the regular album versions; if you want the older versions, buy the "Skynyrd's First" CD on MCA.

2) for including some of their more "off-side" tracks, like "I'm A Country Boy", "Honky Tonk Night Time Man" and "Railroad Song".
