5.0 out of 5 stars Great 70's-80's funk/soul!, August 3, 2004
The Brothers Johnson are one of the most important funk/soul groups of the 70's. They could do hard funk, jazzy funk and funk that leaned towards disco. One thing I've always thought - that the lead singer sounds kind of like Jermaine Jackson, which is certainly not a bad thing - I love Jermaine! In fact, for the longest time, I thought "Strawberry Letter 23", was sung by Jermaine Jackson! Just my opinion, of course. Anyway, if you love 70's funk and soul, you should have this disc!

5.0 out of 5 stars Deep cuts & the Hits, too!!!!!!, May 27, 2007
What a pleasant surprise, there is so much more to the Brothers Johnson than Strawberry Letter 23, Stomp,etc. The deep LP cuts we played in addition to the hits are here. Titles may not be familar, but the songs are!!!! Bravo & well done, collection. Also remastered to the fullest volume & includes a wonderful booklet with The Brothers history.
Please Q produce one more CD!!!!!!!
