With all these GH compilations coming out you'd think it was nearly Christmas or something.

Actually, you're probably right. I think I missed Jools Holland again when I counted!  |

I'm normally a huge fan of the concept of Greatest Hits albums, i very seldom find a whole album that's not at least 50% made up from songs you will never ever listen to in your lifetime again. There are only about 5 or 6 i would like to own in this Top 10 though.I still can't believe they didn't include Behind the mask on the Clapton cd!

I tend to buy a lot of Greatest Hits albums. There have been a lot of artists that I have abstained from buying anything from them as I have not quite been sure whether I would enjoy the whole album or not. Some of the time it has prompted me to go out and buy the back catalogue (e.g. Kirsty MacColl)
Out of the current Top 10 I own one. I already have a perfectly good HM/BS compilation, and can guarantee I will get more than one copy of the Spice Girls for Christmas.

Ha ha! Not me! You can blame the family, they'll be the one who will no doubt buy it. I shan't be getting it until it drops in price and if no-one gets it for me before! |
