The best songs they ever recorded... September 21, 2009
Joy Andis (Seattle, WA, and London area, UK)
Were all compiled and put on this album. An earlier 'Greatest Hits' has been out longer, but it was very lacking in the material, which this album has.

America was one of those bands who had a very long run with a sound that was, not unique by any means...just catchy. That catchiness would eventually be made into their own style, and change and grow with them. As the scope of Pop music changed, America made it through those changes well enough...managing to have several hits in several years that many people remember.

And just when the fickle record buying public was certain that America was finished with their string of hits, they managed a comeback with "You Can Do Magic", written and profuced by Russ Ballard. Several more albums followed, and a few more hits for this soft rock/folk duo.
It seems that when you get to the end of this lengthy cd, you feel that there might have been more, well there was,it was just that like most bands of their sound and time...they began playing to smaller and smaller audiences, and they began releasing their newer material on independent labels.

For anyone who either grew up with America, or has a fond recollection of what they were doing when these songs were on the radio, this is the album for you:)

Another America sample July 18, 2009
William M. Hamby (California United States)
Jimmy Jam and his production team also sampled another America song. They used portions of Ventura Highway by America on Janet Jackson's hit "Someone to call my baby". Geat song too!!!

Amazon Has Proved to be a Great Way to Order Many Things February 14, 2009

It has proven to be a safe and fast way for me to acquire many things, especially CD's since few people carry them at all anymore. I have yet to be disappointed.
