A cover design to make you vomit (could it have been more drab? I doubt it), but the content is a nice selection of tracks - but probably better to buy the original, complete albums.

This set has been described as 'Definitive' - it is NOT; it is a selection only. No selection that leaves out My Enemies Have Sweet Voices and most of Orange, is not, by any stretch of the imagination, definitive - check those listings and weep!
