My Dark Hour, no radio play, great song... He later stole the main riff for fly like an Eagle. The song is just he & Paul McCartney. Paul on Drums,bass,vocals. True stereo, as a kid I would play with the balance to here one side & the other. I play LIvin' in the USA as loud as I can, dig the harmonica & organ. Great song.

Steve Miller has about six or seven albums before he rode the gravy train with 'The Joker' in 1973. This is a two record anthology released in '72 that has now made it to one CD. I don't know if any of the songs have been deleted. What's here is an excellent compilation with 'Space Cowboy' and 'Living in the USA' and fourteen other songs. The sound here is excellent, and with the sound compilations Capitol has given us on Grand Funk Railroad and Helen Reddy, and quite unexpected. Their isn't any thing to complain about this CD, but since many Miller fans don't realize it was released in 1972 they aren't going to find 'the Joker' or ' Fly Like An Eagle' here. This should't be confused with '1968-73' which does have 'The Joker,' I am not sure how that one sounds or if it contains some different songs other than 'The Joker.'Read full review
I had this album on vinyl years ago. It was really good to hear it again. Very nice recording and some very rare Steve Miller material and some songs you won't hear anywhere else. If you like Miller you'll like this CD. Bill Burtchville, Michigan

First of all you can't blame Steve Miller for pursuing commercial success in the 70s and 80s. He knew what the people liked. Sad it is that "Anthology" is stereotyped as a 60s album. It is getting on to 50 years since he wrote these songs, but if anything, it enlightens the new listener on his true musical genius. It is impossible to see what music is timeless and what is not, but this one is loaded with great songs at a bargain price.
