If you’re familiar with David Lee Roth but don’t own any as of yet,
then your next question is likely to be, “Is this a good place to
start?” Sure, why not? Dave’s latest “hits” compilation, simply called
Greatest Hits (his last one was called The Best), does the trick in
most regards. It even includes Dave’s entire first solo EP Crazy From
the Heat albeit not in the original running order. (1. “Easy Street” 2.
“Just A Gigolo” 3. “California Girls” 4. “Coconut Groove” in case you
feel like re-arranging the tracks as originally released.) “Easy
Street” is an Edgar Winter Group original, and Dave has Edgar guest on
his version too.
Some of the best songs are distilled from Eat ‘Em and Smile, but that’s a 5/5 star album that needs to be owned on its own regardless. From Skyscraper is “Just Like Paradise” and “Hot Dog and a Shake”, but not the single “Stand Up” interestingly enough. Present are the three singles from A Little Ain’t Enough: the bluesy “Tell the Truth,” the title track and the swanky “Sensible Shoes”. Three tracks are included from Your Filthy Little Mouth, only one of which is a head-scratcher (the reggae infused “No Big ‘Ting”) but by-and-large this an acceptable slice of Warner Brothers era David Lee Roth.
