3.0 out of 5 stars Would be perfect if...., May 4, 2002
By chakasworld "chakasworld" (Atlanta, GA United States) - See all my reviews
They included the CLASSIC song 'Every Generation' from 1980. It is hard to imagine a Ronnie Laws compilation without this awesome track, but if you want to obtain it, get 'Smooth Grooves-Jazzy Soul' VOL.3, and create a better Laws compilation CD. The 'Every Generation' CD is out of print!! Besides that, this is a nice Ronnie Laws sampler that features hits from the 'Pressure Sensitive' era, and there are some hits like 'Always There', 'Friends & Strangers', and others that also feature his sisters Debra & Eloise on vocals. I'd also recommend Debra Laws' 'Very Special' (1981) CD because Ronnie is a featured player on all tracks (he even sings on the title cut!!). All in all, the best of Ronnie Laws is 'nice', but should've been more comprehensive. Get a used copy!
Peace, SD (of 'Chaka's World')

5.0 out of 5 stars A great collection indeed., March 17, 2001
By A Customer
Another personal choice for a Ronnie Laws greatest hits collection would be the 1984 compilation "Classic Masters" (Capitol Records ST-512375), however, it is with a heavy heart that I must tell you that Classic Masters is currently out of print. It's playlist was as follows:

1. City Girl* 2. Always There 3. Love Is Here 4. Every Generation 5. (You Are) Paradise* 6. Friends And Strangers 7. In The Groove 8. Stay Awake 9. Saturday Evening

* Previously unreleased

Perhaps Capitol will see fit to doing a re-release of this brilliantly arranged and performed American musical masterpiece.

5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely collection..., April 23, 2002
By A Customer
of timeless classics from Ronnie Laws!! The only way this CD could have been better would be to have added Every Generation to the list of tracks...otherwise, this is an essential for any jazz lover.
