"'Misery Loves Company: More of the Best 1975-1983', released in 1997, is a testament to the world that the Michael Stanley Band is one of the greatest bands of our time. Coming 'right back' at us with a second dose of greatest hits that surpasses the first compilation, 'Right Back At Ya', Michael Stanley has hand-picked the very best of the best. Additionally, he comments personally on each of the 18 tracks(wow! count 'em!)which allows us to connect with the band. Songs like 'Baby If You Want To Dance' (my personal all-time favorite MSB tune), 'Fire in the Hole', 'When I'm Holding You Tight', and 'All I Ever Wanted' will knock your socks off while other hits like 'Spanish Nights', 'Last Night', and 'Take the Time' (damn those MTV execs anyway) will have you doing some soul searching. And that's just to name a few! If I were stranded on an island, this would be the CD I would hope to have with me - and a hell of alot of alkalines! But don't miss out on the other great works by MSB. And finally, in the words of Michael himself, - DON'T STOP THE MUSIC and CUT THE BULLS-word AND PLAY A LITTLE ROCK&ROLL!!!"

Great!

"This cd contains the songs that kinda "got away" from the first "best of" package. If you ever saw the band live, than alot of these songs would have been heard. Great retrospective of a great band."
