4.0 out of 5 stars Music is great, packaging less so, March 13, 2007

This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

I picked up the LOMA anthology and had to find more Linda Jones - this is a great program of tunes but the packaging is cheap, up to and including the songs being listed on the outer and inner cover out of order - not just a few slip-ups, it's like the thing is on shuffle-play. Maybe it's just my copy (and no - it's not my player), but once I got past this I was able to just concentrate on an incedible but - sadly - lost talent.

3.0 out of 5 stars She Deserves Better (They Could Have Done Better), June 26, 2007

This review is from: Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

Despite the (alleged) prestige of including a David Nathan essay, "The Greatest Hits" is a disappointing compilation of the late R&B/Soul singer's work.

First, the track listing (both on the back cover and booklet) is incorrect; there are 21 tracks, but they are completely different order than what the track listing reads. As seen below, it turns out that the tracks are arranged on the disc in alphabetical order.

The recording dates are not provided in the booklet (nor is any other information - producer, album, chart positions - other than songwriter credits), other than the partial information provided within the text of the essay. And if that is not enuff, despite being "remastered", the sound quality is less than stellar.
