3.0 out of 5 stars Okay collection for the beginner, April 15, 2000

This CD is okay, but my main problem with it is that it leaves out a lot of the excellent material Eddie recorded during his years at Motown. The cuts "Keep On Truckin'" and "Boogie Down" are included here in their unedited versions, but the some of the other songs that were originally longer ("Girl You Need A Change Of Mind", "Intimate Friends", "He's A Friend", "Can I") are cut down and are really not as enjoyable as the long versions. If you're just getting into Eddie's work, then this is a good starting point, but I personally recommend getting the ULTIMATE COLLECTION, which has all those songs in their entirety. If you still find yourself wanting more of the Eddie Kendricks sound, you can also check out VINTAGE '78, or search for his other LPs on vinyl, since most of Eddie's solo works are now out of print.

3.0 out of 5 stars A must for serious fans of Eddie Kendricks, December 18, 1998

A compilation of several of the best performances of one of the smoothest falsetto voices of our generation. My only regret is that more of Eddie's solo performances are not available.

THIS ALBUM AND PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING BY EDDIE MAKES ME MELT... IM JUST UPSET THAT HIS SONG "BABY", WHICH I THINK WAS RECORDED IN THE 80S, CAN NO LONGER BE FOUND. WHEN 45 RECORDS WERE STILL SOLD, "INTIMATE FRIENDS" WAS ON ONE SIDE AND "BABY" WAS ON THE OTHER..
