RC: See the other Parlet albums for personnel, track-related information and reviews. This is an excellent collection of songs that manages to squeeze all but seven of Parlet's songs onto one CD. The liner notes are very good with some nice photos, and some individual song detail is given, including chart positions. The songs they exclude for the most part are their weakest. They wisely only take three songs from Parlet's pure disco album, Invasion Of The Booty Snatchers, although if "Ridin' High" had been replaced by any of the other cuts from Play Me Or Trade Me, I wouldn't have complained. Four tracks each are taken from the other two albums. No new, live or unreleased tracks are here, but I'd still recommend it to collectors for the good sound and liner notes.
