A two disc set that is basically another
"best of" package. I prefer the package that includes the original
greatest hits 1,2, and 3. Of course, that was a four disc set, so this
one is probably a bit cheaper. Like the aforementioned release, this
one has some curious additions, and some curious omissions, but the
whole package is quite nice and is par for the course for these kinds of
releases. I think he should have skipped his "classical" period on this record,
however. But that could be just me.
