![]() A nicely packed double-disc collection is properly titled to confront two different music styles and indeed, Disc one presents more familiar heavy side of the band, while the second one focuses on the funk/soul and fusion elements that they played with on their later albums. Entire classic period 1970-74 - the first 5 albums - are represented, including several singles-only tracks which makes this set valuable for collectors too. It is nice to follow the progression and a change of style from early heavy rock riffs of the first two albums through more soul-influenced later works that sometimes brings you close to the fold of Norman Whitfield's "psychedelic soul" production. Thumbs up for compilation albums like this one! PERSONAL RATING: 3,5/5 P.A. RATING: 4/5
