Other albums come and go, but I still listen to this one all the time.

Young kids just don't get good old rock.

Great hits collection. If you like pop rock, you can't go wrong here. The later songs are a bit cheesy, but te classics are awesome!

From: mats	Date: July 18, 2002 at 20:57
hey numb nuts oops, I meant rock on. I unfourtnally had to grow up with jokers on the radio all the time. And they are still being played, they just plain suck.

mats is a prick.that's it

You really can't go wrong with this disc. The 2 new songs are great and the selection of hits is superb. They should have put "Music Man" on here instead of "One Lonely Night", but that's only a minor complaint.

I think this cd is mint. You have to buy this cd. Im 15 and all i listen to is old rock and REO Speedwagon is one of my favorite bands. ROCK ON!

This album may be called "The Hits," but it doesn't contain REO's best songs.... like Golden Country, Say You Love Me or Say Good Night, Shakin' It Loose, Like You Do, Only the Strong Survive, Do You Know Where Your Woman Is Tonight, Lucky For You, Lightning, etc. That may have something to do with the fact that GARY RICHRATH wrote all those great REO tunes, and since he had already left the band when this compilation was put together, Cronin got editorial control. It's really too bad for REO.

From: Kristian	Date: September 17, 2004 at 13:23
Great Album The title is perfect, because this album truly contains all the hits. Im glad they didn't put any of the early stuff on this, cause it sucks. The opening track and Here with Me are awesome songs.

If it has Ridin' the storm out, buy it.

From: thiago	Date: December 4, 2005 at 20:10
"I Don't Want to Lose You" and "That Ain't Love" are perfect songs!!! Pure AOR!!! These two songs never released before on REO Speedwagon album. Hugs Thiago (from Brazil) sr.macintosh@bol.com.br

Cierto Thiago "I Don't Want to Lose You" es un gran tema AOR y nunca realizada en algun album de REO pero "That Ain't Love" si estuvo en su disco del 87 un gran tema por cierto. Un buen recopilatorio mas aún si no tienes mucho material de ellos. "Take It on the Run" será por siempre mi tema favorito de los REO. 8.5/10

From: rick kerch vzla	Date: January 8, 2015 at 20:45
A good collection of some of the best REO songs but also there are some missing ones like for example "Keep The Fire Burning"...87/100

From: bmoviecritic	Date: August 5, 2019 at 3:03
Very nice collection, sounds great, hard to capture the spirit of the band on one disc though. The two new songs would've helped Life As We KNow It out if they had finished them on time.
