5 stars Disc 1 is the altimate sound expieriance
This CD would be the one I'd choose on a long car ride if I could take only one CD. Spirits rendition of Like a Rolling Stone is worth the cost of the CD.

3 stars A let-down from their glory days
To be sure, there are certainly some good songs on this set. But there's an awful lot of really weak filler too. The collection would have been much better as a single disc collection representing the best of their time at Mercury. Nothing here stands up to the work on Spirit's first four albums. For completists only.
