This LP is a true gem for any music collector and will transport you back to the golden age of rock. The album actually has two names: "History", to keep with the group's tradition of issuing albums with names beginning with the letter 'H', and "America's Greatest Hits", to indicate that it is a compilation of the group's hits. The first seven tracks of the album, having been recorded prior to producerGeorge Martin's involvement with the group, were remixed by Martin for this release. For example, Martin added a layer of fiddles to "Don't Cross The River." Additionally, on this album's version of "A Horse With No Name," a voice can briefly be heard about two minutes into the track. And for this album's version of "I Need You", some additional bass was brought up further, while the pitch was slowed down a quarter-tone. Also,"Sandman" is about a minute shorter than the original release.
