5.0 out of 5 stars A nice collection, October 4, 2002

This review is from: 3 Pak: Greatest Hits of the 70's (Audio CD)

It's pretty much a matter of taste. You either like the tracks or you don't, and you can read 'em before you buy. There's no complaint about the quality of this recording--it's the first "best of-" collection I ever bought that I did not return because of lousy recording. There was no need to adjust volume or tone setting for different tracks as I have found to be the case on some other collections. The music was clear, and "punchy" not flat as vinyl recordings sometimes sounded when the recording engineers used to compress the dynamic range so they could fit more music on a disc--a trend that seems for no reason to have been carried over into the digital recording media by some companies.

This one was very well done, as I expected--it's from Sony.

I also got "70's Pop Hits [BOX SET]" (Sony), a three CD set, also very well done, with maybe a half-dozen duplications of tracks on "Greatest Hits of the 70's [BOX SET]." The "Pop Hits" set did have one track that was in mono, which wasn't so much a disappointment as it was just plain odd, considering how good the rest of it sounded.

I give them both five stars for the price and quality of recording.

If you are concerned about sound quality, do not waste your money on this one. I have purchased other Sony 3CD sets, and was impressed by the quality of their mastering. Not so here. This one sounds like it was taken from the fifth or sixth generation tapes. Poor highs and distorted bass. Yuck! :(

Not your typical 70s set of Rock N Roll ...

Includes 'Come & Get Your Love' and some other goodies.
