Summary: Don't let them slip by.
Comment: In the 1970's, the market place was swamped with south of the Mason-Dixon line musicians. If you need to expand your Southern Rock collection, Atlanta Rhythm Section MUST be in it!

Summary: Great Introduction to ARS
Comment: This is a great CD for people who would like a nice introduction to this very talented group. It has a nice choice of songs and the sound quality is excellent. What made ARS stand out so much in their was their lead singer, Ronnie Hammond. He has to be one of the underrated male vocalists ever. His voice is so beautiful, soulful and smooth. I just wish he hadn't retired from singing.

Summary: This porridge is just about right!
Comment: The Millennium Collection series is a lot like Goldilocks at the Three Bears house. Sometimes the porridge is too hot - how can you possibly distill the career of The Who, The Jackson Five or even Bing Crosby into 10 tracks? Sometimes the porridge is too cold - calling Eddie Kendricks or Rita Coolidge a "Master" is just too much of a stretch. This is one of those collections that is just about right. ALS were a very good mid-tempo, classic rock band of the mid-70's with solid songs, respectable vocals and very good arrangements. Sort of a Steely Dan-cum-Southern Rock combination. Their biggest hit was the soulful "So Into You" ("I am so into you I can't think of nothing else."), but they also made the top 40 with the onanistic implications of "Imaginary Lovers", "Doraville", the largely forgotten "Do It Or Die", and the wonderful uptempo "Not Gonna Let It Bother Me Tonight". Also include is their cover of the Classic IV 60's hit "Spooky" ('Life sure is crazy with a spooky little girl like you.'), the band from who's ashes ALS rose. A little filler, but a nice, although not critical collection for 70's Classic Rock fans.
