"I found this record in my garage and I have to say...The End is AMAZING versus it's digital half. This is a really good 'Best of' album, and includes two b-sides. 'Who Scared You' is one of them and one of my favorites by the Doors."  Reply

"This is a brilliant record - an AOTY contender for me, and I say this with some confidence as a long-term fan of the band - this is their best release (IMO) in a career going back to the mid-1990s. A shot in the arm to the corpse of post-rock!"  Reply
