Come On, Get Happy! The Very All-time of The Partridge Family is a greatest hits compilation album from The Partridge Family released on May 3, 2005, in conjunction with the kickoff season DVD collection. It contained some previously unreleased songs. During the course of the television series there were a number of recordings that were used on the program only never released on album or record in stereo.[one] Some were alternate mixes of released songs. These are known to fans as the "Lost Songs", iv of which announced on this collection (tracks 4, 9, 10 and 12). They are noted as "new release" in the runway list below. Two of the songs appeared in the airplane pilot episode of the show, tracks ix and 12, listed below every bit having Ron Hicklin doing the vocals. Originally, the just cast fellow member who was supposed to sing was Shirley Jones. Later on the producers heard David Cassidy's demos of the songs, however, they decided to let him sing subsequently the first couple of episodes.[ii]

AllMusic [1]

Tim Sendra of AllMusic concludes his review with, "Whether the unreleased iv songs belong on a" Very Best Of" collection is up for fence: On one hand information technology might have been better to add more than songs that people remembered. but on the other it is overnice to have the rarities unearthed. Either fashion, this is the best Partridge Family collection available."[1]
