<P> The next few years saw the group's catalogue expand with a number of side projects, reissues of older albums on CD, and several major retrospective releases . In July 2000, Rhino released Highway: 30 Years of America, a three - CD box set which included 64 remastered tracks spanning the group's career . Included were a handful of alternative mixes and demos such as an early take of a stripped - down "Ventura Highway". </P> <P> A year later, in August 2001, Rhino released a trimmed - down single disc compilation, The Complete Greatest Hits, which assembled all of the group's 17 charting Billboard singles . The disc also included two newly recorded songs, "World of Light" and "Paradise". Peaking at No. 152 on the Billboard album charts in October 2001, The Complete Greatest Hits was America's first charting album since Perspective in 1984 . </P> <P> On the solo front, in February 2000 Beckley released Go Man Go, an album of remixed tracks from Van Go Gan . The original Van Go Gan finally saw domestic release that July with bonus tracks . June saw the roll - out of another Beckley side project, Like A Brother, recorded with Robert Lamm and Carl Wilson under the name Beckley - Lamm - Wilson . Dan Peek resurfaced in 1999 with a new website and his first solo release in many years, Bodden Town . </P> <P> As part of a contemporary trend of recycling oldies recordings to create new hits, Janet Jackson's 2001 single "Someone to Call My Lover" sampled the "Ventura Highway" guitar riff and rose to No. 3 on the Billboard pop charts . </P>
