Notes


Greatest Hits 1974-1978 collects the majority of Steve Miller's biggest hits — "The Joker," "Take the Money and Run," "Rock'n Me," "Fly Like an Eagle," "Jet Airliner," "Jungle Love," "Swingtown" — and seven album tracks that received a fair amount of airplay on album rock radio. The collection only covers a total of three albums — The Joker, Fly Like an Eagle, Book of Dreams — with the latter two providing the bulk of the material. Because of this, "Living in the USA," one of Miller's biggest hits of the late '60s/early '70s, isn't included but it isn't missed, since all of his other hits of the '70s are included. The thoroughness of Greatest Hits 1974-1978 makes it an excellent introduction to Miller and for many casual fans, it also means that they can contain their Steve Miller collection to one disc.
