On analyzing reviews of the already existing members of this series I hope will be continued ("The Best Of Kool And The Gang (1969 - 1976)" and "Celebration: The Best Of Kool & The Gang (1979 - 1987)") I have noticed only two real complaints - on the first they should have used the original "Summer Madness" and "Hangin' Out" was absent from the second compilation (I don't know which version the reviewer was referring to).
I have imagined this album as a way to solve these problems and also solve the problem of having something to cover the years '77 and '78 when they unfortunately weren�t actually the bands best years at all. I also hope some more from the albums that did not have a great deal of tracks on the first two (two or less).
I also hope that the band will use the opportunity two add more back to back tracks (the only certain example is "Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)/Blowin' With Wind (parts 1 and 2) from "Kool Jazz ['97].
By the way the principle for the time frame is that this one is nine years because it's predecessors were seven and eight years respectfully.
