My only complaint about this cd is that it does not list what cd a particular song on it came from i.e. it has no "taken from the .... cd" info...Perhaps this is because the songs are "technically new" as Kai Hansen re-did the vocals and made a few other musical changes. However, it would be nice to know anyway as it is the song that matters, where a great vocalist and added touches can make a great song much better, but great vocalist and added touches really can not do much to improve a bad song. Given what was said above, knowing what cds these songs came from could encourage purchacing such cds that the songs originally came from. The enclosed booklet, which prints the lyrics and photos, these songs were chosen by a poll of Gamma Ray fans. As I have the Somewhere Out In Space cd... the re-doing of older songs; superior re-mastering of more recent songs; plus the addition of a bonus cut (not a superior song in my opinion); Gamma Ray, as other reviews have shown, have created a cd will appeal to those who have never bought a Gamma Ray cd before, appeal to those who have all GR cds and appeal to people like myself who have one or two GR cds. This may be the way other "greatest hits" cds are packaged in the future. Have to give it 10/10 for ingenuity
