5.0 out of 5 stars Greatest Hits CD flies like an eagle...., September 29, 2003
By Betty June Moore (Douglas, Georgia USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Steve Miller Band - Greatest Hits 1974-1978 (Audio CD)
The Steve Miller Band Greatest Hits 1974-78 is a lively and catchy collection of blues-based rock songs from the mid- to late 1970's. The fastest upbeat music (Swingtown comes to mind) lends itself to some great dancing. This musical period took place after front man Miller's bluesy days of Haight-Ashbury, and it was when some of his most popular blues-rock music, such as "The Joker" and "Fly Like An Eagle," became popular hits.

Some of the tunes on this CD are catchy; you will start singing along and moving with the music of the blues-based pop rock. For me, this album brings back a time when a lot of great bands such as The Eagles, Bob Seger, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and more entered the music scene.

My favorites on this CD are Swingtown, The Joker, Fly Like An Eagle, Dance Dance Dance, and Wild Mountain Honey. Dance, Dance, Dance makes me think of a time when my granddad would take my grandmother to a country barn dance. Wild Mountain Honey is my favorite. When I listen to it, I can escape the daily routine of life in the big city and my mind floats away to the Smoky Mountains of my youth.

If you like good blues-based rock that brightens your mood and makes you want to dance, Steve Miller Band Greatest Hits 1974-78 is worth purchasing and adding to your audio library.

5.0 out of 5 stars College kid tested, and approved, January 11, 2000
By Steve Smith (Somersworth, Nh) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Steve Miller Band - Greatest Hits 1974-1978 (Audio CD)
After four and a half years at college, I realized that this very album is owned by just about 1 out of 3 students. Really. Just about every college student that I know really digs this album. And why shouldn't they? Every song on the album is fantastic. Songs like The Joker we can hear on classic rock stations, and also Fly like and Eagle and Jungle Love. But all the songs are wicked good. This album never gets old. The Steve Miller Band paved the way for present day bands like Dave Matthews Band and Phish. They are a cult icon, and this album proves musically why that is.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great Greatest Hits collection, June 12, 2000
This review is from: Steve Miller Band - Greatest Hits 1974-1978 (Audio CD)
During the five year period covered by this album (actually six, since "The Joker" was originally released in 1973) Steve Miller recorded as many great singles as any American rock artist. His career peak is captured perfectly by this album, which contains nearly every Steve Miller song you're likely to hear on classic rock radio. What is surprising is the diversity of sounds. You'll hear everything from guitar jams, keyboard solos, country stomps and even a little blues. This album lacks only 1982's "Abracadabra" and a couple of late 60's classics like "Living in the U.S.A." Overall, a fine collections for those who want the peaches from Steve Miller's tree.
