2.0 out of 5 stars A couple of hits..., August 7, 2001

This demonstrates just how redundant some compilation album titles are. All Carole's major hits are absent and there are lots of relatively insignificant album tracks. Don't waste your money - get the much better compilations 'Songs of long ago' or better still 'Natural woman'.

3.0 out of 5 stars some of her hits but not super, July 22, 2001

If you don't own any of her records, I would not recommend this one.Some of her hits are here,but What about "Brother, Brother" and "So far away"? It's better for you to buy "Her Greatest Hits" or the two cd compilation "A Natural Woman" which includes her masterpiece "Tapestry". Anyway, "Super Hits" is not a bad album to start.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very poor album to be called Super Hits...., November 24, 2008

While Carole King has one of the best loved singing voices in the history of modern American music entertainment, this CD is not a good one. It should not have been titled "Super Hits", because there are some problems with this CD.

1. "It's Too Late" is not on here. This was one of Carole's signature hits from '71, and it's a big mistake for that song to not be on this disc.

2. "I Feel the Earth Move" is a live version instead of the original that we're so fond of. But this live version is not bad, even though the only instrument is the piano.

3. "That's How Things Go Down" was not a hit. This song was released as the B-side to "Corazon" in '73.

4. "Carry Your Load" was also not a hit.

For those of you who want a thorough Carole King hits title, get her Greatest Hits, or another compilation that has the true hits, and no substitutes. This "Super Hits" is a poor compilation, and a botched up one at that. Might be okay enough as a starting sampler, but not highly recommended.
