2 stars This is a strange album, or better said a strange compilation, the songs here are maybe the most popular of them, and i said strange because it stars with songs of Discipline era and finishes wiht the songs of the first album, normally is viceversa and it have been a better choice, but well thats not the point.

I think this is not a good compilation, im not a huge fan of compilations and "The Best" albums, but there are so many good compillations, i dont wand to be hard with this, but i think its horrible, if you want a greatest hits , then you can make one compilllation per era, not combine all King Crimsonīs eras and lineups to one album, and i really dont like that the first part was 80īs and last part almost the entire In the Court of the Crimson King, you better buy that album if you dont have it yet, and if you like 80īs era , maybe this compillation could be good for you, (Heartbeat is a horrible song), i just wanted to say that. After all: 2 stars... only for fans and collectors... i wont give it 1 star because of ITCOTKCīs songs are great and are here.

I have nothing more to say about it, so if you want, listen to it and then tell us your experience. Bad!
