      Amazon:

      There is one reason why you should purchase "The Ultimate Rascals", over the Rhino collections, "Best Of", or "Anthology". The Warner collection is the only one that has the full album length version of "Lonely Too Long". It is hard to believe that Rhino would place a short edit version of the song and eliminate a whole verse? The "Ultimate", collection is just the perfect sampler for the casual fans, who would like a nice 20 song overview of this great band at a great price. All the chart-toppers are here as well as several great album cuts.


      Amazon:

      The Rascals made a career of proving that rock didn't have to be loud, discordant or intrusive, and that soft, gentle harmonies could and did make musical magic.

      The Ultimate Rascals includes all of their best-loved offerings, like Lonely Too Long and the enchanting How Can I Be Sure?

      But, if you must have up-tempo, driving beats, the Rascals can deliver those too, with cuts like Good Lovin' and People Got to be Free.

      Beyond these rather obvious hits, there are a number of solid secondary offerings, including an excellent cover of Mustang Sally. The Ultimate Rascals showcases all of the groups many facets, providing a totally satisfying musical experience. A wonderful way to spend a Beautiful Morning or any time you just feel like Groovin'!
