Good compilation. 38 tracks covering his career. The known gems are fucking gold. I discovered quite a few on this I'd never heard before that are fucking great. He's a legend is good old Iggy. Punk rock pioneer. 06/24

Shit hot compilation. Career spanning going from his early gems to the modern covers he made his own. The greatness of him is that the early song structure is so simple yet so brilliant. You can hear the subtle widening sound in the later years without detracting from what made him so unique

I detested the trendy commercial synth pop of this when it all come out. Fast forward many many years and I've come to realize that they actually had a lot of fucking good tunes. A lot better than I remembered them to ever be. This is all I'll ever get from them though. Ahhhh, isn't age an interesting concept.

Not overly diverse enough although I do like the hints of World music ingrained into the electronica on some tracks. But regarding it being a greatest hits album I find it very hit or miss. The better tracks are fantastic but there's to many that are really not that great at all. Hence it does nothing to make me want to venture into exploring any of their albums. This will suffice.

Should of paid more attention when getting this. Didn't realize it was a compilation and I already had a 'Best of the Pogues'. Never mind. 05/24

Saw Beastie Boys headline at a festival. Loved the gig, but I was quite trolleyed at the time. Hence I got this. Always an interesting one when you explore an artist based on a show of there's you've seen. Sometimes it's the beginning of a great discovery. Other times not so much. This is alright but not enough to make me want to dive into their studio albums. This is all I'll need. White boys rapping doesn't quite do it for me.
