The Association's Most Popular Hits, plus a few more...
I bought this "album" when it was first released in 1968 (at age 13), and recently purchased it again on cd. This compilation contains their best-known hits, plus a few other tracks that the casual Association fan may not have heard before. If you are the type of person who is only interested in hearing familiar songs, without exploring any deeper cuts, this probably is the cd for you. None of the songs are disappointing, and they give a good over-view of what The Association was capable of doing. However, it is a very "safe" collection of music, nothing being included but the absolutely most commercially successful songs. That being said, it is still worth the few dollars charged for it, in order to own some of the greatest music ever released by one band. If you want to dig deeper into The Association's music after hearing this cd without buying all of their old releases separately, I would then purchase Just The Right Sound-The Association Anthology. Whatever Association...

A classic, but needs an update
Contains all their big hits, but none of their later material. It was a straight re-issue of the 1968 LP, which was pretty much the norm in the early days of CD's. But this excellent set is long over due for an update, including remastering. Add another 5 or 6 songs from their later albums and it would be an easy 5 star CD. As is it is very good. "Everything That Touches You" is one of the best love songs to come out of the 60's. "Windy" and "Cherish" are classics. Nobody sounded like the Association.
