While "The Best of Lita Ford" focuses on the commercial stuff you heard on the radio and MTV, "Greatest Hits"(a deceiving title!)is mostly album tracks that not many people except fans heard. "Blueberry" is the toughest song from the too-slick 1987 CD "Lita"(complete with S&M lyrics)and the outtake "Hellraiser" is a wild and woolly cover song from The Sweet(and this is the only place you can find it). Booklet photos of Lita in a factory are perplexing, but she was indeed an original. If Lita hadn't come along, someone would have had to invent her. B-

overall,kinda disappointed her better hits not included such as--close my eyes forever--dressed to kill --gotta let go--lisa- and back to the cave --her 1992 best of or her 1988self -titled LITA album, will be the best collection to own--all i can say, i was hungry for more rock!

Lita Ford is one of rock's premier guitarists. This CD displays some of her best work from all of her RCA recordings. All of these tracks are great, but my favorite here is the never released track "Hellraiser", a remake of the Sweet classic. The guitar work is screaming and it sounds like everyone was having a blast recording this. If you don't own any Lita Ford CDs, try this one. I promise you you will want all of the other ones after hearing this!!
