Released in 2003, A&M's Strawberry Letter 23: The Best of the Brothers Johnson more or less renders 1996's Greatest Hits obsolete. Containing virtually the same material, plus a selection that includes five more songs -- not to mention 24-bit remastered sound -- it thusly tops all the other anthologies that have come out of the U.K. and the U.S. throughout the '80s and '90s. This has all the essentials any casual fan could possibly want, including "I'll Be Good to You," "Stomp," "The Real Thing," "Welcome to the Club," "You Keep Me Coming Back," "Get the Funk Out Ma Face," and "Light Up the Night." ~ Andy Kellman Musical Guests Dave Grusin Quincy Jones Billy Cobham Toto   Compilation Appearances Vol. 2-Old School Jackie Brown Body + Soul:sweet Seduction Funk Box Best Of Quincy Jones-Millenniu Musical Biography Philadelphia's Wdas Classic So Ultimate Collection Soul Clasics Vol.6 Collectors Edition: Pulp Fiction (Bonus Tracks) (Explicit Version) Old School Funk Jams Best Of Soul 80's 1 Soul Hits Of The 80s Magnum Opus 3 Dance Grooves Only You Old School Soul Party Kings Of Hip Hop Disco Gold Gold(2cd) CLASSIC SOUL BALLADS: SWEET THING Akeelah and The Bee R&b Soul Gold - 70's Soul Forever Soul Rnb-3cd Tin Essential Playlist:20 Non Stop Hits F We Are Family Old School 80S 0207 Dance Number 1's Gold:old Schools Jams 70's Soul Number 1's Pride Body Soul:funky Love Semi Pro 25 Best:disco Hits   Technical Info Release Date : 06/17/2003 Original Release Date : 2003 Catalog ID : 000038502 Label : A&M Records (USA) Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00606949371722   Professional Reviews Mojo (Publisher) (10/03, p.132) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...[A] stonking 20-track overview of the funky siblings' tenure at A&M in the late '70s..."    Product Image
