Album Description
Vinyl LP repressing of this classic collection from the Rock guitarist. Features the absolute biggest hits from his mid to late '70s period including 'Rock 'N Me', 'The Joker', 'Jungle Love' and many more. Capitol. 2008.

Greatest-hits collections often deprive the listener of the chance to experience an artist's true scope of talent. Not so with Steve Miller--his strength has always been more in crafting an occasional blast of FM-radio heaven rather than a dozen solid album tracks. Greatest Hits 1974-78 chronicles the best singles from Miller's most successful years, after he veered from Haight-Ashbury bluesy trippiness to more accessible blues-based pop-rock. There are the slippery grooves of "The Joker" and "Fly Like an Eagle," and there's the air-guitar-beckoning riff rock of "Take the Money and Run," "Jungle Love," "Rock n'Me," and "Jet Airliner." Don't expect groundbreaking art, expect references to the "pompatus of love" and instant gratification. Requisite listening at the classic-rock keg party. --Neal Weiss

5 out of 5 stars Good oldies   November 23, 2008
Just a great compilation. Beware if you let Itunes manage after ripping to your PC, Itunes in all its wisdom buries this as a compilation.......


5 out of 5 stars Steve Miller - an all-time great   September 15, 2008
Steve Miller has to be on anybody's top-ten lists for the eighties. And his songs last. They still sound original and fresh.


5 out of 5 stars Great Steve Miller Compilation   June 16, 2008
All of the songs on here are great. Just put the cd in and hit play.


3 out of 5 stars a good start, but that's about it   June 12, 2008
Just because Steve Miller's greatest hits album captures the bands most popular/commercial moments, DOES NOT mean it's the only Steve Miller Band album you should own. In fact, this is one band where the hits aren't nearly as good as the lesser known songs, or especially the live tracks (try to track down an early live Steve Miller recording, and you'll never come back to this album again).




5 out of 5 stars Great Classic Rock   April 29, 2008
I think the Steve Miller Band had some awesome songs on this CD and I am so glad Amazon.com had it available for such a great price. Thanks for the great oldie music availability.
