Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Pretty weak best of collection.......2004-10-21

I usually try to stay away from the Universal "20th Century Masters" series of compilations, since they are usually pretty sad for best of mixes. I was a little leery about giving the BMG/RCA equivalent "The Platinum & Gold Collection" a try, but what the hell.

Their ad inside described the series as "a series of superstar compilations that feature the best-known songs from all-time favorite artists, along with rare photos, informative liner notes and digital remastering for the best sound possible. The #1 place to find the 'best of' is The Platinum & Gold Collection." I found this description to be false for the most part. The "rare" photos (4 of them) aren't really rare. It also doesn't feature all of The Guess Who's big hits. Most notably, "Laughing," "No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature," "Share the Land," "Rain Dance," and "Clap for the Wolfman" are all missing.

Some people will be happy with this compilation. If you're anything like me, you are going to wish you had spent a couple more dollars and purchased "Greatest Hits (1999)" or "Anthology (2003)".
