    • All Music Guide Review

    The Best of the Atlantic Years isn't a slim volume of hits from Memphis Underground, Push Push, and other top LPs of Herbie Mann's 25-year period at Atlantic. It's actually a 14-disc box set including all of Collectables' two-fer collections (a total of 20 original LPs), most of those being low-profile albums Atlantic had no wish to reissue properly (Memphis Underground and Push Push are two of the releases not present). Ranging from Mann's early-'60s obsession with the bossa nova all the way to his late-'70s flirtations with disco, The Best of the Atlantic Years is a sprawling collection of subpar jazz-pop and crossover. A bare few of the albums have historical interest: 1965's Recorded in Rio de Janeiro features João Gilberto and Antonio Carlos Jobim, while 1969's Live at the Whisky A-Go-Go sports Mann's crack group of the time (Roy Ayers on vibes, Sonny Sharrock on guitar, Miroslav Vitous on bass) sounding woefully under-utilized grinding out period riffs and light soul-jazz. Whatever your interest in Herbie Mann, it's far better to grab these CDs one at a time than end up saddled with the Love Boat pastiche of 1977's Fire Island. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
