Where's the rest?
What there is of this album is very good--but there is only a half album there--where is the rest? You do get a second CD that is sorta a greatest hits type thing--that sorta makes up for the short album--but I like to hear the new stuff too. Give us more. Al

A Fabulous Compliation CD for MB20
Being a faithful MB20 fan I have all of their CDs, but I did purchase Exile on Mainstream because of the 6 new songs plus the bonus DVD. Those things alone help make this one of my favorite compilation CDs that I own.

Of course in addition to those things the selection of their hits is fairly comprehensive. While if I were to make my own I'd of course add some "B-sides", I realize that GH CDs are for fans who may *only* like the singles. Either way, I was impressed they included songs like Back to Good and Bright Lights, in addition to all of their hit singles that I LOVE.

MB20 are genius. The lyrics, the voice, the instruments...I like that they do more than the average band; they shoot for more than status quo and they shake things up with each new CD by giving them their own voice and feel. If you like MB20 this is a CD to definitely add to your collection. And if you're a radio fan, I think this CD is certainly something you'll enjoy as well.

love it
i recently purchased this cd and i loved it immediately...they just make great music and they are my favorite band now...

My favorite band now!!!
After hearing from my mom that we had tickets to the show I immediately had to go out and buy this C.D., I thought we could learn the new songs and know them before the concert which was about a month before (March 17-St. Patty's Day). I listened to the new songs but soon just skipped them over and listened to #7-17. Although the new ones are a good attempt, nothing beat the original hits. After the concert, I hesitantly listened to the other 6 and found them to not be so bad. But I just reccomend you buy "Yourself or Someone Like You", and "Mad Season." But considering this has "most" of the best hits it is a really good buy. But if you do buy this C.D. it will make you want to go out and buy the originals.

Great Songs, Questionable Quality
I may have been spoiled by previous vinyl albums, however, this album just sounds like someone took a CD and burned it to a vinyl without putting too much effort into it. I wouldn't call it a botched vinyl job. But if you're someone who's seeking a better listen from the vinly (like if you purchased Linkin Park - Minutes to Midnight) you'll be somewhat disappointed with this vinyl as the CD genuinely has a higher quality than the vinyl.

If you're someone who isn't a total audiophile and just wants the vinyl to do whatever it is you want a vinyl for then go for it! The four star rating shows that I would have bought it anyway even if I knew this ahead of time.

Not great quality, but not botched. Great songs!
