I bought this the day it was released and found (and still find) it to be a fascinating look at the creative process and drive behind BFF. If you bought the first two albums and dig them, you won't be disappointed, but don't buy this first. The key to enjoying this collection is to take it for what it is: naked baby photos. It's not SUPPOSED to sound as good as their studio albums. It's kind of like a scrapbook of demos and live performances in the vein of the Beatle's anthology project. My only regret is that "Champagne Supernova" and "Mitchell Lane" were not included, as I only have them on cassette. Bottom line: This album is extremely good for the type of album it is. If you have it and don't like it, read the liner notes and stop dissing it just cause it doesn't have that bloated, overrated throwaway "Brick."
