CANNED HEAT

This compilation covers the period 1967 to 1972 and contains the best tracks from their most famous period. Here you can find all their big hits. On the road again, my favorite track, was a UK top ten hit and a USA top 20 hit in 1968. Going up the country became a top 20 hit on both sides of the Atlantic. Let's work together was Canned Heat's biggest UK hit, reaching the top three although it was only a top 30 hit in America. Bryan Ferry later covered it as Let's stick together and also had a huge British hit with it. Country singer Dwight Yoakam also recorded a great cover of the song, proving that a great song can be adapted to any style of music and still sound great. If you remember and enjoy On the road again, Going up the country and Let's work together, then you will surely enjoy the rest of the music here, as those songs are typical of Canned Heat's style. Apart from a great cover of That's all right Mama (a song made famous by Elvis Presley), the other songs are somewhat obscure. Among them are a minor UK hit (Sugar bee), a minor USA hit (Time was) and an unlikely collaboration with the Chipmunks on the Chipmunk song.
