Avg Customer Rating: 
Product Description: One question would be: What took him so long? After all, a contemporary like Van Morrison has sold boatloads of his single-disc best-of set to buyers wary of diving into that deep catalog without a primer to get them started. So three and a half decades into his solo career, Neil Young finally delivers his version of that most modest of albums--the pre-holiday "hits" overview. What's surprising, coming from such a proud maverick, is its conventionality. Granted, the original master mixes are a boon for fans, but otherwise, there's not much here for loyalists who quite likely already possess the original "Like a Hurricane" on a couple of albums, as well as a handful of live interpretations scanning the years. Since Young cracked the Top 10 only once (1972's "Heart of Gold"), this set is built around concert staples as "Cinnamon Girl," "Rockin' in the Free World," and "Hey, Hey, My My" rather than chart favorites. Despite Young's honorable standing as a still-vital graybeard, the disc is skewed heavily toward his early work, shortchanging some mighty productive recent years. Peripheral fans may find this set of interest, but faithful followers are better advised to investigate the DVD version, which, at least, includes videos, photos, lyrics, and Web links. --Steven Stolder

Customer Reviews
Neil Young legend
What can I say that I haven't already said in my other review of Neil Young DVD live show? He is a master singer and songwriter. I never get tired of any of his performances, which is why I buy his works whenever I can. There is something about Neil's music that brings out the best in feelings when listening to his music. You're just glad to be alive, especially when watching his live show DVD that I recently rated. By the way, I have already watched his live show more times than I can remember and love it every time. You are one of the best Neil and I thank you for sharing your talent with us all!

Sounds like they were just recorded! A super collection!
I was skeptical to buy this, because I'm an old fan, and I had most of the songs on older CD's. But from the very first cut "Down By The River", I could tell these songs jumped out with more presence than I ever heard them before. Actually, these most all are my Neil Young favorites and these are most of the songs you'd want to hear again and again anyway, so this is a very logical choice for the new or the old fan. All of them sound like they were just recorded this morning. Highly Recommended!

Old genius
Welcome to this production. It is great! What I really like about this stuff, is the best of 2 worlds. Good music and good musicians. Today a lot of music is computerized. It does not match the way that Young and others play the quitar. You can listen to every tiltle and enjoy. It is worth it to purchase this cd, plus you get his best works all in one!1

Excellent remastering of Neil Youngs music!!! I hear detail I have not heard before.

Best version of Cinnamon Girl on the Planet still!
Everyone is always trying to new and improve everything. I've heard a few musicians try to redo my favorite Neil Young song, Cinnamon Girl and nobody comes close to the original version. Again, there are moments in time that come together like magic with just the right chemistry and can never be repeated or improved upon. This entire album stands the test of time, simply a master piece.
