To the new stack. Sure thought this would have come out higher. Love six of the eighteen
tracks, but the album just misses the love mark. Covers the period 1975-1995 and material from
8 studio albums plus a few I had not even heard before, as they were released for this album.
One of those marketing things they used to do to suck people into buying songs they already
have. This is Bruces first compilation. You would think there would have been one before 20+
years in the game. Nothing here from his first two albums, so they pick up with the album that
broke him big, Born To Run. Most represented is Born In The USA with four tracks. Not
surprising that this album topped the chart both here and in the UK. I dont care much for the
Greatest Hits title of this album. The inclusion of new tracks plus some of the others not
being hits, makes that title wrong. You never know if the artist is involved in making these
business decisions, so we can't blame Bruce for that. The fact that allmusic only gives an
artist of this stature 3 of 5 stars for a compilation, says a lot about this album.
