5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Aug-31-2007; Great CD; I don't care for the first four songs. Most of the rest of the songs are great though.

3/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jul-27-1998; A good introduction for new listeners; However, old fans will be disappointed by the continuing lack of new material. Note that the liner notes contain many typographical errors. XTC are indeed geniuses, but this double CD set may leave listeners thinking "Prove it."; read full review | report as inappropriate

2/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jul-31-2005; Not what you might expect; Some music fans seems to want to praise this band as an "undiscovered treasure" or "underrated, shoulda been stars" group. Frankly, there isn't anything all that impressive on these two discs.And look, I LOVE British music. But I wanted...; read full review | report as inappropriate
