Title Note

Personnel: Kenny Vance (vocals).

Concise 1986 vinyl collection of key hits. ~ Jeff Tamarkin

Greatest Hits is a budget-priced, ten-track selection of some of Jay & the Americans' hits, and while there are plenty of essential items missing, it still functions as a good, affordable sampler, featuring such hits as "She Cried," "Come a Little Bit Closer," "Think of the Good Times," "Crying," "This Magic Moment," and "Walkin' in the Rain." The 2003 Collectables reissue has the same track list as the 1992 CEMA Special Markets release but sports different packaging.~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

As far as it goes, this 26-minute CD is pretty good, as a sort of bite-sized account of the group's chart hits -- about the same length and ten songs that an oldies station might program in a "special" on the group's history. The mastering is better than decent, which is a surprise, as this release pre-dates the general upgrade that began in the mid-'90s -- the group's tracks always translated well to CD, in any era of the format, and only "She Cried" doesn't quite measure up to the quality of the rest. There are no notes at all, not a surprise considering the seven dollar list price, but if this material isn't reasonably self-explanatory, then there's no '60s rock music that is. ~ Bruce Eder
