4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good collection, January 25, 2004

By	Anthony Rupert "shut up, Shut Up, SHUT UP!!!" (Milwaukee, WI) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Most times when an artist releases a "greatest hits" compilation, people beef over which songs should have or shouldn't have been on there. I've seen reviews where people give a collection one star just because THAT song wasn't on there. But this 17-song collection is a pretty accurate representation of Keith Sweat's career.

I noticed that a lot of the songs are from his first album Make It Last Forever. Sure, that was his best album, but maybe he should've included a good number of songs from ALL of the albums. Oh well, there are other hits you remember, like "Nobody", "Twisted", "I'll Give All My Love To You", and even LSG's "My Body". And most hits collections contain a hard-to-find song, and here there's "(There You Go) Tellin' Me No Again" (from the New Jack City soundtrack).

I'm not exactly sure why the Snoop Dogg-assisted "Come And Get With Me" is on here, but regardless, this is still a good album to buy if all your Keith Sweat cassettes are worn out or lost.

4.0 out of 5 stars Too many hits missing..., January 21, 2004

By A Customer

I have been looking forward to a Keith Sweat collection for years, and finally it is released, but it's missing too many bona-fide big hits. Where on earth are "Keep It Comin'" (a top twenty pop hit), "How Do You Like It?" with the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes of TLC, "Just A Touch," "Come With Me" (with Ron Isley), "Am I Dreaming" (with XScape), "When I Give My Love" and "I'm Not Ready," (another top twenty hit)????? They could have easily substituted some non-hits included here, such as "How Deep Is Your Love" and the extended version of "Make It Last Forever," for the real hits. And, as a final note, his classic, genre-defining "I Want Her" is included in an edited form. This should have been a two CD set.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great album! All of Keith's hits!, June 16, 2004

By	Preston L. Moreaux (North Carolina) - See all my reviews

I think it was timely that they put this Keith Sweat album out. He can make some very solid songs and is a very good singer. He just got better and better at his craft and he sure can be begging and whining on these songs. I still love "I Want Her", "Something Just Ain't Right", "Merry Go Round", "Make You Sweat", "Nobody", "Right and A Wrong Way", and I was surprised they put his song with LSG, "My Body" on there! They covered his career widely on this album with the song selection. Keith Sweat is one of the best R&B singers and this collection proves it.
