The absolute very greatest essential best of???
, August 10, 2003Reviewer: RCG aka RCtheBearCub - See all RCG aka RCtheBearCub's reviews4 of 4 Yahoo! Users found this Legacy: The Absolute Best review helpful How many greatest hits albums can you make of a band who only had a handful of albums? As with all their hits collections...great starting point for anyone wanting to get into the doors...the essentials are here for those just getting into them...but most people there are served best by a single-disc collection. Otherwise you should just get the albums or better yet the remasters box set with all the albums in it. I can't knock one track on this album yet I really have to knock the idea that every 2 years another best of has to come out, just to make sure those people keep forking out cash to think they have the "newest' doors album that sounds only slightly if at all better than the last remasters. Death to the record companies but long live The Doors! ... -

Pro Reviews: Legacy: The Absolute Best
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews Truth be told, most casual Doors fans only need a well-assembled single-disc collection, containing all the hits and radio staples. Since that doesn't exist -- Rhino's 2001 collection The Very Best of the Doors missed too many key songs to suit the bill -- they'll have to settle for the comprehensive 2003 Rhino compilation Legacy: The Absolute Best, a double-disc set that replaces the previous double-disc Doors comp, the 1985 set The Best of the Doors. That collection contained 19 tracks, the number of songs that are on the first disc of this exhaustive 34-track overview. Every one of the tunes from The Best of the Doors is on Legacy, but not in the same order, since the songs on this compilation are put in roughly chronological order. Legacy also tries to give equal weight to each of the Doors albums, pulling anywhere from four to eight tracks from all the studio albums, adding "Gloria" from Alive, She Cried and a previously unissued "Celebration of the Lizard" to the end of the record. This winds up giving a thorough overview of the band's peak, whether it's on the familiar hits or on strong album cuts like "My Eyes Have Seen You" or "The Changeling." There are a couple of omissions -- most notably "Love Street" and "Summer's Almost Gone" from Waiting for the Sun and also "Ship of Fools" and "Land Ho" from Morrison Hotel -- but overall, this draws as complete a picture as possible. It still may be a little bit much for those who just want the hits (they're all here, plus a whole lot more), but there's little question that Legacy is the best Doors compilation yet assembled. - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide |
