You've got to be kidding when "Locked & loaded", "Mental Masturbation","Dixieland" and countless others are missing from a so-called "Best Of" compilation. Buy the albums on their own, or one of the better greatest hits previously available.

If your looking for a best of I suggest find Choice Cuts! Not only does it have better songs but includes two covers Were an American band/I am the walrus, but some of the tracks are live and you get more of a feel of how Jackyl was a contuance of the great dirty rock bands like Aerosmith, AC/DC, Van Halen and countless others that seeing live gave you the best objective of who and how the band really is! Another great album to get with choice cuts is Staying alive wich has covers of Aerosmith, AC/DC, and Lynard Skynard! The lumberjack is probably their worst song and is always the first song everyone plays, don't be narrow minded or just listen to your radio, listen to some of the other stuff (staying alive 5 stars)! Jackyl Rocks!

This band was never really given its due. This CD rocks from beginning to end. Its like a poor mans AC/DC.

Jackyl is one of those straight-up heavy rock bands. If you like AC/DC you will love these guys.

All the songs here are great Jackyl classics, but how this album can be called a "Best Of" is a joke. There's more good stuff missing off this "Best Of" than is on it. Give this CD a miss unless you've never heard of Jackyl before and want an introduction - trouble is ... this introduction will have you looking for the original albums and you'd be much better off going for them in the first place: might cost a few $'s more, but it's worth it.
