"The best from the best"

As well as being the greatest live album ever, the first half hour represents the finest music ever recorded.

I have listened to and own a lot of Dick's Picks and this is the best of all the volumes I've heard.

Disc !: The best "China Cat Sunflower" in my collection, hands down. Then, an incredible jam out of "Truckin'" that keeps going for about 20 minutes and then morphs into a sweet "Wharf Rat" and "Sugar Magnolia." Classic stuff. 5/5

Disc 2: Some of the best Dead songs performed damn-near flawlessly. "Eyes of the World" and "Scarlet Begonias" are a bit short, but they still have a distinct punch to them. "Seastones" may sound grating to some people, but I actually enjoy it and think it's a good transition between the end of one show and the beginning of another. "To Lay Me Down" makes one of its rare appearences and it's just plain LOVELY. The other songs are all good and well-played, but I wouldn't say this is a perfect disc. The fun of 6/28/74 is just about to get started. 4.5/5

Disc 3: And now, the moment you've all been waiting for: a 27-minute track simply titled "Jam." And "Jam" it does! Lots of themes are touched on... "Space," "Mind Left Body," "Dark Star," ect. What really makes this jam worthwhile is the fact that the band is so fluid and moves between the themes with great ease. Then we get perhaps the greatest "U.S. Blues" in Dead history, which isn't really much of a surpirse given what came before. A glorious "Sunshine Daydream" and fairly hard-to-find "Ship of Fools" close the set. 5/5

Conclusion: I think this pick can be summed up in one word: "epic." If you like the Dead at all, this should be in your collection. It's a very good summary of the crazy stuff that could happen in 1974. Sure, '77 and '68 might have been more consistantly excellent... but when they were on in '74, they were on much more intensely than in any other era.

This has got to be the best collection of music from the '80's!  Kate Ceberano has been an 'Icon' in Australia for two decades and gets better with each passing year!  'Nine Lime Avenue' features songs that take you on a wonderful trip to a time that no one wants to forget. Kate has a truly beautiful voice....strong, yet as gentle as a kittens meow and always fresh!  Every song on this album belongs here without a doubt, and for me three really stand out as the best. 'The First Time Ever I saw Your face', 'Go Your Own Way' and 'Brass In Pocket'.  If you're a fan of Kate you know what I mean and if not, this is the best chance to get to know her!  You will truly love this album and will with out a doubt be looking for her early work....I GUARNATEE IT!

No doubt; if you could only purchase a single collection by G.L., this is the one.  It has the best remaster and selections available.

This CD is a treasure. If you are not familiar with all of the older recordings, you will still love this collection. If you ARE familiar with most of its content, then you will absolutely flip!! This is the first CD (legitimate, that is) that has very carefully and wisely chosen selections of the very best there is to be had of Judy's television material. If you have the older boxed set of the selections from TJGS, this is the crowning "completer piece". This entire CD contains  the very heart and soul of TJGS and is perhaps the closest thing to actually "being there" that we can attain. It has a sound (SUPERBLY REMASTERED!) and a feel to it that I have yet to experience with the other recordings. What else can I say?!!
It is a Garland collection unlike any other and you WILL BE PLEASED!! If a dollar value could be placed on the content, I would say that it is worth the price of the entire CD (and then some!) to hear her sing "Here's to Us" one more time!
  Thank you Scott and to all the folks at Hip-O records for devoting the time and effort it took to bring this to life!!
This is what "becomes a legend most"!!

The best album of all times!! Everybody should have it and listen to it again and again. All the musicians involved are among the best in the world.

Definitely the best band of the history. This compilation presents the best singles of them, but if you want all their best just buy all their albums... jajajajajaja.

The best EWF album, a must have for any collection

Absolutely the BEST!!!  I have several Neil Young albums, and kept hearing tracks from this on Pandora;  so, I ordered it.  It is my new favorite.  Songs that appear on other albums, like "Cowgirl in the Sand" are masterfully done, live, on acoustic guitar or piano.  If you are a fan, you won't be disappointed.

I would say the best compilation for The Police. The quality of the cd is spectacular.

The filler, Lieut. Kije, is the best I've ever heard. The main selection, R&J excerpts, is Leinsdorf's own arrangement of the music and the performance also ranks with any I've heard. I have been smitten by the music since I saw the Russian Ballet film in 1955, and since then have heard and owned every notable performance, including Leinsdorf's LA recording for Sheffield. Even if you have that one, where the sound is better than anything else you will ever hear, you have got to get this one too for three reasons: more of the music, a different but still outstanding interpretation in places, and an unbeatable Kije.
Leinsdorf has been unjustly neglected by RCA reissues. He did some really find things at the helm of the BSO (Prokofiev was one of his specialties) and should be reissued in the latest technology.
The sound of these 1967-68 recordings has been done proud by Testament, but their decision not to put the original recording dates on the outside of the disc case is dishonest and hurt's their reputation. A very small niggle considering the gold contained therein.
Get this one while it is available and before the price for used copies skyrockets once it is withdrawn from the catalog.

Johnny Tillotson's soothing harmonies swooned audiences through much of the '60's, and the tracks on this compilation aptly demonstrate why. Of all this artist's releases, including the "Best Of ...," this one is easy the best and most comprehensive. A pleasant surprise are some unexpected standards, but the main draws are the chart-busters like "Send Me the Pillow ...," "Talking Back Tremling Lips," (which no other artist has been able to score like Tillotson's energetic and soulful rendition), the classic and timeless "Heartaches by the Number," & another near two dozen cuts. Not only is Tillotson's compilation a refreshing nostalgic blast, it's proof of the timelessness of songs performed by a true artist. Buy the disc! Promise, you won't regret it.

The best thing about Cormega's last album, "The Realness", was that it was filled with gems from start to finish, with no filler material. The same can be said for The True Meaning. As a whole, the production on this album is not as good as The Realness, but Cormega's lyrics on this album are definitely superior to those on his last album. IMO, the album's best cut is Verbal Graffiti(this track gets more rotation than any other cut on the album), but other favorites include The Come Up, The Legacy, Live Ya Life, Endangered Species, Therapy and Take These Jewelz. Cormega is one of the most consistent but underrated emcees in the industry. On this album, it is evident that Cormega has grown as an artist. Let's keep hoping that he can continue dropping dope albums year after year. For those who are new to Cormega or want to hear some un-cut hip-hop, The True Meaning as well as The Realness would be great additions to your collection.
