Title: waste of money
Product review: This CD is a waste of money for any but the most casual fans. A best of compilation would need to be a double disc set and would have to include such songs as "The Road" from RUNNING ON EMPTY, "Before the Deluge" from LATE FOR THE SKY, and two or three additional tracks from FOR EVERYMAN. Really, his first five albums merit owning in their entirety, even for non-fanatics. A single best-of CD that covers his later career (from HOLD OUT onward) would be welcome, as the albums are much more spotty, but this CD fails to document even his more recent stuff adequately. The choices are so strange in some cases that this CD can't even be considered representative.That being said, compeletist may have to buy this CD anyway for the title track and "The Rebel Jesus," which appears on a Chieftains album, I think in a different form. "Somebody's Baby" is only available on the "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" soundtrack and was a Top 40 hit in 1981 or so.
