Rhino's Greatest Hits is a definitive collection, chronicling B.J. Thomas' peak of popularity in the late '60s and early '70s. All of his big hits are here -- "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," "Hooked on a Feeling," "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head," "I Just Can't Help Believing," "No Love at All," "Rock & Roll Lullaby," "(Hey Won't You Play) Another Somebody Done Somebody Wrong Song" -- along with a generous selection of lesser-known singles and album tracks. The end result may not change anybody's mind about Thomas -- he was simply a good mainstream pop singer, which pleases some listeners but not others -- but there's no denying that this is the ultimate Thomas collection. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
