AMG Review of Very Best of Rose Royce [Cleopatra]

Andrew Hamilton
All Music Guide

Less than a dozen tracks, but Rose Royce fans will stick this one in their shopping carts even if they already have a meatier CD by the Southern California funk/soul band. Their hit single "Car Wash" shows up three times: the original version, a skitterish "Process House Mix," and "Car Wash II." Four mellow favorites, including "Love Don't Live Here Anymore," will satisfy fans of their melters; the mid-tempo "Is It Love You're After," is a happy sound; and "Do Your Dance" and "If You Feel Like Dancin'" compels you to boogie.
