This is one of those collections that is just about right. ARS were a very good mid-tempo, classic rock band of the mid-70's with solid songs, respectable vocals and very good arrangements. Sort of a Steely Dan-cum-Southern Rock combination. Their biggest hit was the soulful "So Into You" ("I am so into you I can't think of nothing else."), but they also made the top 40 with the onanistic implications of "Imaginary Lovers", "Doraville", the largely forgotten "Do It Or Die", and the wonderful uptempo "Not Gonna Let It Bother Me Tonight". Also include is their cover of the Classic IV 60's hit "Spooky" ('Life sure is crazy with a spooky little girl like you.'), the band from who's ashes ARS rose. A little filler, but a nice, although not critical collection for 70's Classic Rock fans. ~Pat Kelly
