My kind of compilation. Top group doing some its best songs, one track previously unreleased and a few others having different mixes, edits or versions. Most cuts on the 1972 collection Living In The Past was non-LP, on this all regular ones are the same as on the albums. "Aqualung" has the start riff played twice and so re-made by other mixing and use of reverb it becomes a different version and "Locomotive Breath" comes with other balance and more prominent guitars. The previously unreleased "Rainbow Blues" was a leftover from the "War Child" sessions - performed live at a few occations in the seventies, but here was first time on vinyl. There's also exclusive edits of both Thick As A Brick and Passion Play. Today no stone is left unturned and about every existing recording and version from any group worthy of a name is being released on CD. I still prefer issues like this - analog audio on big vinyl. First US on green Chrysalis label had same number and cover design. Premiere UK with silhouette label and cover front having figure and fonts embossed, some with picture/lyric insert. (YÖHT*)
