"I bought the IMPORT version because it has 12 tracks instead of the USA version - 10 tracks. The extra two tracks "Gravity" and "In the Thick of It" are both great. "Gravity" was one song that I thought should have been a hit from her "Get Here" album but only "Piano In The Dark" was a hit. And what a huge awesome hit it was, still the best song from her by far, in my opinion. My second favorite song is "Le Restaurant", a light jazzy love story in song. Brilliant."

A truly gifted and inspired singer/songwriter.

"Given the fact that she's undeniably one of the best singer/songwriters of our time, it's almost incredible that Brenda Russell is so underrated and overlooked by many. "If Only For One Night", "Get Here", "So Good, So Right", "Le Restaurant" and "Stop Running Away" are timeless musical masterpieces which will make you a fan of this incredibly talented lady. The only reason why I did NOT give this fine compilation a 5-star rating is because its producers failed to include even one song from her 1981 LP "Love Life" (incredibly)."

GOOD FOR STARTERS.....BUT NEED MORE!........

"The Greatest Hits CD does have the radio hit 'Piano In The Dark'

and songs she's written that were made hits by other artists, "Get Here"-Oleta Adams, "If Only For One Night",-Luther Vandross and

"Dinner With Gerswin"-Donna Summer. A true Brenda fan [yours truly]

would opt for the ULTIMATE COLLECTION. Brenda Rusell has put

out many studio albums that never disappoint.
