Editorial Reviews

One of the first hits compilations assembled of Jimi Hendrix's catalog, Smash Hits remains one of the best, since it keeps its focus narrow and never tries to extend its reach. Basically, this album contains the songs everybody knows from Hendrix, drawing heavily from Are You Experienced?, plus adding the non-LP "Red House," "51st Anniversary," and "Highway Chile." Those non-LP selections may still make this worth seeking out, even if they've appeared on subsequent hits collections, but the main strength of Smash Hits is that it contains the best-known big-name songs in one place. Maybe not enough to make the collection essential, but still enough to make it a representative, accurate sampler. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

January 18, 2005: Jimi Hendrix is incredible and so is this cd. Has all good songs on it. Could have put more on though.

October 28, 2003: I'm only fifteen, but I'm getting into older music. Its so much better than the newer artists and Hendrix is one of the best. This compilation of hits is awesome and its inexpensive. Get it.
