4.0 out of 5 stars Decent but Incomplete Collection, June 27, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The O'Jays - Greatest Hits [Philadelphia Intl.] (Audio CD)

The really big pop hits are here, with one curious exception: "I Love Music" is absent. Although the song can be found easily on other CDs, especially 70s collections, it is a mysterious omission on an otherwise affordable and satisfactory CD. All original versions, no liner notes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Came for Money, left with the Weekend!, May 8, 2005

Bought this for The Apprentice theme song, "For the Love of Money" (which ROCKS) and ended up LOVING the song, "Livin' For the Weekend"! It's NOT the testesterone-fueled hit song by Loverboy, but a slow jam that builds and then blusters then slowing fades like a great weekend journey should!

Other standouts are "Love Train" amd "Give the People What They Want," pions to global peace, love and harmony with wicked hooks and grooves reminiscent of the band War.

This collection is PERFECT for those who want to hear the "Money, Money, Money" theme in full, and then stay for a perfect box of aural chocolates--not too many, all of them tasty!
