The series that sells itself short...

"The same company that brought us the series "Better Get This Now" seems to understand it's own concept based on the titles of it's compilations---FRUSTRATINGLY hard-to-find on CD club hits that were huge hits that everyone still seeks. So WHY then, do they not give us the FULL LENGTH versions of these rare tracks, and instead, edit them and segue each one into the next (and not even particularly well?). you can not select a single track without having remnants of another track at either the ending or beginning of it.



If you're completely desperate to have SOME form of these songs at all, then this is a good way to do it, but if you were hoping to find all your old vinyl remastered in its entirety in digital sound...you'll be totally let down.



This is, however, the disc to get, since it has BOTH single volumes together for a reasonable price.
