Astonishing!!!! October 23, 2003 A. R SCOTT (Houston, Texas) 16 out of 17 found this review helpful
This is a teriffic cd I remember when I was coming up and I was a little girl and we lived with my grandmother I remember hearing these songs on the radio these songs brings back memories to where as when I hear some of these songs I just want to cry; Because it reminds me of some good times that I had wwith my family a lot of them are all gone now but this is a good album and these songs really bring back memories these fellas really could sing they had the voice ,talent, and the lyrics and this is an astounding cd if you like classic old skool then buy this cd it will have you reminiscing down memory lane. My favorites are: sexy mama, not on the outside, love on a two-way street, and many others this is a very nice cd to listen to and really do like it . This cd makes me think of my grandparents when I used to alway be over my grandmother's house because we always played music!!!!
Simply One of the Best January 6, 2005 Joe L. Carter (Michigan, USA) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
FINALLY! All of the major hits of the Moments on one CD. Thank you, thank you, thank you! These guys are my 6th favorite all-time group (behind Blue Majic, The Delfonics, The Five Stairsteps, Esquires, and The Temprees). Everything they made "back in the day" on 45's seemed to be a "hit"! Til this day the only music I play in my SUV and at home it old school
R & B stuff like this. I have every single group you can think of, but I'd lost many of the Moments songs over the years, so it's good to be able to get them all again. "LUCKY ME, ALL I HAVE, GOTTA FIND A WAY, SUNDAY, LOVELY WAY SHE LOVES, AND "I DO" are some of my all-time favorite jams! Man, it's nice to have all these jams! It tickles me when the young folks ask me "who is that?" Then they are amazed that the old school groups sounded so good. In any event, the MOMENTS are truly MOMENTOUS!
Not On the Outside July 15, 2001 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I used to listen to that first song on a transistor radio and it sounded incredible even then. "Not On the Outside" was my first favorite as a teen and still touches me today. And the CD just goes on from there...wonderful Moments. You'll love this one!

This disk contains the best of the Moments including the incomparable "I Do" (with the famous "Ooh Bay-Bay, Oh-ho Bay-Bay) and "A Lovely Way She Loves (with that fantastic vocal ending)." All of the early tunes (except for "Not on the Outside") had Billy Brown on lead. No one sounds like him and he can really hit some serious high notes (he still has it, by the way). Unfortunately, the disk does not contain the under-appreciated "Somebody Loves You Baby.) Still, it is a great smooth soul album from a great smooth soul group. By the way, for all you serious Moments fans, check out [website]. Let them know that there are people out there who appreciate their work.
essential soul music November 27, 2003 aaron cushman (Sanford and Son Salvage Yard) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
The Moments are truly one of the greatest soul groups of all time and this compilation proves it. The sweet soul trio's hits are all here; "Love on a Two Way Street", "Sexy Mama", "Not on the Outside", "Look at Me(I'm In Love)", etc. Even some of the lesser known songs are noteworthy("Come Away With Me" is one such a beautiful song)and worth checking out. If you are a fan of the Stylistics, Delfonics, or a fan of the Philly soul sound, these boys from Jersey will not disappoint.
