1 stars This compilation is not worth collecting for two reasons: 1. It does not give a full picture of Pink Floyd music starting from its inception with psychedelic style (Syd Barrett era) until later album "Division Bell". 2. I don't think bands like Pink Floyd, Yes, Genesis, ELP are suitable with compilation CD. So it's not worth at all spending your dollar on this compilation. I'd rather recommend you purchase each individual album of the band starting with "The Dark Side of The Moon", "Wish You Were Here" and "Animals". If it fits your taste, you might explore with other albums.

Don't get me wrong, all songs featured here are great ones. The problem is if you enjoy this compilation you don't get a grip on the nuance of Pink Floyd music in its full form album like "The Dark Side of The Moon" where all songs are connected seamlessly. This compilation was released I think for commercial purpose to get people like dance music where by some tracks are actually upbeat. If that is the purpose, definitely one song "Shine on You Crazy Diamond" wouldn't fit into the said purpose. So it confuses me on the purpose why this compilation was ever made. Keep on proggin' ..!

Peace on earth and mercy mild - GW
