Not so with Steve Miller--his strength has always been more in crafting an occasional blast of FM-radio heaven rather than a dozen solid album tracks. Greatest Hits 1974-78 chronicles the best singles from Miller's most successful years, after he veered from Haight-Ashbury bluesy trippiness to more accessible blues-based pop-rock. There are the slippery grooves of "The Joker" and "Fly Like an Eagle," and there's the air-guitar-beckoning riff rock of "Take the Money and Run," "Jungle Love," "Rock n'Me," and "Jet Airliner." Don't expect groundbreaking art, expect references to the "pompatus of love" and instant gratification. Requisite listening at the classic-rock keg party. --Neal Weiss Review: Love it - Great record Review: Still a Satisfying Collection - Even though this complilation contains music mainly from two albums, "Fly Like an Eagle" and "Book of Dreams", this still is a worth while album. The album has single versions of "Swingtown", "Jet Airliner", "Jungle Love", "The Joker" and "Fly Like an Eagle". The edited versions may bother some, but if you want to remember the way they were presented on most radio pop music stations, then this is for you. With "Swingtown", it is just the intro that is shortened by 20 seconds. Likewise, the intro to "Jungle Love" is shortened, but not by very much. The major difference is with "Jet Airliner", not only does it have the short intro, but the lyrics are changed a bit. You see, back in the 70's there was a low tolerance for profanity on most pop stations. The single version has the lyrics, "cause I don't want to get caught in any of that funky 'kicks' going down in the city". It was rather tacky, but it satisfied the requirements to not get the song potentially banned from radio airplay. The great thing about this collection that the album cuts used to fill up the album are great songs that may have been played on album rock stations or appeared on "B" sides of the hit singles. This album was a popular title to purchase on cassette tape or 8 track back in 1978 and pop it into your car stereo and impress your friends as you were cranking "Serenade" or "The Stake" as you were driving by. If you want to re-live the nostalgia, go ahead and get this album. Also get the "Anthology" or "The Best of 1968 - 1973" to get the early recordings. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000002U98 | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,902 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #45 in Arena Rock (CDs & Vinyl) #47 in Blues Rock (CDs & Vinyl) #89 in Album-Oriented Rock (AOR) (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (3,584) | | Date First Available | December 7, 2006 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 2017320 | | Label | Capitol | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Capitol | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 1990 | | Product Dimensions | 5.7 x 4.94 x 0.4 inches; 2.88 ounces | ## Images ![Greatest Hits 1974-78 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61NI2mIbFxL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it *by B***I on December 17, 2025* Great record ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still a Satisfying Collection *by D***G on October 10, 2020* Even though this complilation contains music mainly from two albums, "Fly Like an Eagle" and "Book of Dreams", this still is a worth while album.
