Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
The Best of Groove Armada charts the success of one of the UK's most popular dance acts. Featuring the biggest hits from their last three albums, this anthology of their time on the Jive label is packed with downbeat and upbeat anthems, and an array of music as heard in film, television and radio.

The subdued intro and trombone melody of "Superstylin" opens the collection softly with the now legendary bassline kicking in for a perfect euphoric moment. Other upbeat anthems include the piano house of "If Everybody Looked the Same", the Fatboy Slim mix of Gramma Funk's "I See You Baby" (both of which have been used to sell cars) and the more recent disco hit, "Easy". However, although Tom Findlay and Andy Kato pack dance floors every weekend, it's their downbeat soul that receives most attention, partly due to the "chillout" explosion of 2000 that made "At the River" a classic of the genre. With their last album Lovebox, GA showed a more versatile, band-influenced side with songs like the Status Quo sampling "Purple Haze", the rocky "Madder" and fun-loving ska of "But I feel Good".

The Best of Groove Armada is a great selection of songs showing the diversity and musical progression of the band, a perfect introduction for the un-initiated and a good collection for those already converted.--Georgina Collins

CD Description
One of the UK's most successful dance music outfits issue their "greatest hits" compilation. This brings together all of their biggest tunes, many of which have been used on TV commercials - including 'I See You Baby' from the now-infamousRenault Megane ad.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic album..., 24 Mar 2007
Having bought this album after hearing it playing in the hairdressers (!), I was not dissappointed. There are so many songs I recognised that I didn't even realise were Groove Armada's and there's a real mix of chill out songs along with dance/pop, so whatever mood you're in this album will give you a lift! I don't think this album will ever sound out-dated, it's great!

4.0 out of 5 stars Quality selection of groove armada tracks, 30 Mar 2006
By P. D. Mcnally "paul28113" (rugby, england) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Though some of these tracks have been played to death of the years, they still bring a smile to my face, so i guess you could say they should stand the test of time. All in all a worthy addition to anybodies collection. Only compliant i have i why was Suntoucher excluded? it would have been perfect just after superstylin in the track selection. That kind of spoils it for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars For anyone who thinks they don't know Groove Armada..., 26 Oct 2004
A quick listen to this album will prove them wrong! Part of the musical fabric of our nation! Everyone who's been alive in the UK in the last few years will know at least 2 of the tunes in here. Perhaps, contrary to what others have said, it's not ideal for the die-hard fans who already have all their albums (like me!), but perfect for someone who wants to get into GA for the first-time.

From a band whose music has progressed so much, excelling at whatever style they choose to put their hands to, from laid-back chill-out to dance-floor house, there's something in here for everyone to love.
