The only time I rarely by Greatest Hits is by Bands I just like a bit, like Heart or something!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Yeap, on a few occasions I've bought greatest hits to check out bands I like the sound of because I don't know which album to start with, and have no one around to tell me!. Then i'd pick my favourite song(s) and get the regular album which had them on it!. I tend to just buy regular albums now though, and hope for the best!.

With greatest hits you have to be careful because it *is* greatest HITS, i!.e the ones which became most popular and sold the most, and not necessarily the band's best songs!. That's why aerosmith's (my fav!. band) greatest hits albums are sh*t!. Full of songs like 'I don't want to miss a thing' and 'amazing', with nothing like nobody's fault or lord of the thighs!. That's why if I was getting one by them now, i'd go with the compilation 'Gems!.'Www@Enter-QA@Com

I have several 'greatest hits' albums!.!.!.!. but I usually have a few regular albums by whatever band it is, too!. I like them for the occasional song that isn't on one of my albums that I like but not enough to buy a whole album for ~ also like mixing up the playlist!. I could often make my own 'greatest hits' CDs, but I'm too lazy ;-DWww@Enter-QA@Com

Depends on the band!.!.!.!. for some a greatest hits enhances their repertoire, however with others it completely discounts everything they worked for!.!.!. basically the singles band vs!. the album band!.

So guys like Queen, Eagles, ABBA, Bee Gees, Styx, Elton John, etc!.!.!. it works - each of them have a greatest hits album that rivals the few great albums they put out!.

But other guys like Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith (like someone else mentioned), Pink Floyd, Rush!.!.!.!. a greatest hits package will never do the band justice!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I've got quite a few greatest hits albums but only buy them after I've got pretty much everything else I want from a band!. I find the greatest hits albums useful for putting in the car!.

also, at times, some new songs I love are only available on a greatest hits cd so I will buy it for that reason too!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I have, just because I wanted to put a bunch of tracks onto my computer in one shot!.!.!.!.I did that with Rod Stewart a couple months back!. I had none of his CD, so I picked up one of those "Millennium Collection Discs!. It was OK!.

I prefer having the individual albums!.!.!.OK, CD's now!.!.!.but in a pinch, I will latch onto a "greatest hit" CD, and hope the tracks are engineered well!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
