GREATEST HITS contains 2 previously unreleased tracks. A bonus disc entitled JUDAS O RILEY containing B-sides and rarities will be included in this package for a limited time only upon initial release.

Throughout the '90s, The Smashing Pumpkins used a mixture of prog-rock, dream-pop, psychedelia and heavy metal to drag the emerging alt-rock movement kicking and screaming into the mainstream. GREATEST HITS puts these fine finest moments on display along with a pair of previously unreleased cuts. Billy Corgan's brilliant leadership mixed angst-ridden lyrics with the kind of interplay with fellow guitarist James Iha that found the duo using different shadings of distortion the way artists use paint. Opening with the controlled chaos of "Siva," the chronological path makes pit-stops at the awesome power of "Cherub Rock," sweet optimism of "Today," lush beauty of "Tonight, Tonight" and electronica shadings of "Ava Adore." Along the way, Corgan's sentimental side found him embracing Fleetwood Mac's bittersweet "Landslide" and coming up with his own brilliant pop moments like "1979" and "Bullet With Butterfly Wings."

The Limited Edition version features a second disc entitled JUDAS O, a collection of B-sides and outtakes that serves as a companion to the 1994 B-sides collection PISCES ISCARIOT. Key cuts on this bonus CD include the rumbling ruminations of "Set The Ray To Jerry" and shimmering heaviness of the previously unreleased "Slow Dawn."

5 stars AWESOME!!!
I bought this because I really liked 1979 and Tonight Tonight. So I listened to the whole album after I got it and was shocked!!! I loved a lot of the songs on there!! Some of the rockin' songs like Bullet with Butterfly Wings, Everlasting Glaze, Siva, and Zero are awesome to listen to. And then there's the beautifully written songs Rhinosercous, Cherub Rock, Drown, 1979 and Stand Inside Your Love. I think those songs stand out more because they just make me feel happy and think about life and the good times. Great CD! I'm a pumpkins fan now!

5 stars Rotten Apples!!!
Not THE greatest band of the '90s, NIRVANA deserves that distinction, but the 'PUMPKINS are definately ONE OF the greatest bands of the '90s. GREATEST HITS: ROTTEN APPLES, is vital to MY tape collection, and I imagine, to the music collections of many other people. I especially enjoyed their cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide." I didn't purchase this tape from CD Universe. I've had it for several years, actually, but it's just a great album and I wanted to toss in my two cents worth of opinion.

5 stars One of the best bands ever
This compilation of songs puts me in a mood I cannot describe. I wish I could put into words how great this band is. There are rumors flying around that they are going to get back together but w/o D'Arcy and possibly Melissa Auf Der Maur would play bass. I just would like to see them live again

5 stars amazing, but too many great songs left out
in my opinion the greatest hits album for the smashing pumpkins should have about the same no. of songs as mellon collie. Where is soma, muzzle, hummer, i am one, where boys fear to tread, i of the mourning, the sacred and profane, etc.? nonetheless amazing

When a genre-defining group like Metallica, whose past albums have rocked the charts with virtually no airplay, enlists the aid of a hit-making producer like Bob Rock, the result is bound to be monumental.

Nirvana Nevermind CD  (1991)

Greatest Hits music CDs
CD $10.39  4.3 stars Top 500 Audio Samples Definitive Album
A few years after the matter, even the album cover appears vaguely symbolic: an innocent babe, braving the hazards, lunging for the seductive prize at the end of a hook. Few would've given good odds that the youngster would actually be able to snatch the green, swim back to shore, and laugh triumphantly in the fisherman's face; and history has made fools of those who thought it couldn't be done. NEVERMIND not only gave Nirvana the prize the band had reached out for, it included some epic consequences in the bargain--raising the Seattle grunge trio to the status of Godhead, and forever changing the face of the pop music market. As ground-breaking albums go, NEVERMIND seemed expressly designed for a post-modern existence. The punk energy and aesthetic ("Territorial Pissings," "Drain You") were its lifeblood; melody, harmony and structure ("Something In The Way," "Come As You Are") were its selling points; the roaring guitars and sub-conscious ...

CD $15.79  4.6 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Although the Red Hot Chili Peppers have received the hits treatment before (most notably on 1992's WHAT HITS?), this compilation serves to highlight the band's peak years with guitarist John Frusciante, both before his sudden departure in 1992 and after his lauded return for 1999's CALIFORNICATION. (The group's intriguing-yet-mismatched union with Jane's Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro yields only one track, "My Friends.") The Chili Peppers are best known for their energetic punk-funk anthems but their mainstream breakthrough, the gently building ballad "Under the Bridge" opens GREATEST HITS. It's followed in short order, however by the boisterous, slaphappy "Give It Away." ...

Underneath The Stars
Kate Rusby Underneath The Stars CD  (2004)

Greatest Hits album
CD $14.15  4.5 stars Audio Samples
Few folk singers bring traditional song alive in the way Kate Rusby does. Her casual, intimate manner -- and the fact that she often adds her own tunes to the old words -- has a marvelous contemporary edge. There's not an ounce of affectation in her, which comes across more and more in each successive album. She's equally good on humorous pieces like "Goodman," sad songs like "Cruel," and those in between like "Let Me Be," where the chorus of "la la las" transforms it into a lovely pop song. Her performances are relaxed and unhurried, bringing out the melodic essence of each piece, and the arrangements for an acoustic band (all of whom are sensitive and sympathetic to the material) nothing less than spectacular in their simplicity. And when she takes on the sly con story of "The Blind Harper," recorded in a definitive version by the great Nic Jones, she really shows how skillful she is. The whistle part transforms everything, and the rhythmic sense is unerring. But while Rusby is best known as an interpreter of traditional songs, she's becoming a better and better writer, too. The second half of the disc comprises (all but one of) her originals -- a daring move, putting them together, rather than interspersing them. However, it works -- she's reached the level where the joints between her songs and the traditional tunes are seamless. "Young James" could easily be a couple of centuries old, and the same is true of "Polly." The stories she tells are timeless, and she finds the heart of truth and emotion that lie at the center of them. Excellent as all of this is, the centerpiece remains the title cut, which is firmly fixed at the end of the disc, a song of leaving that's gently ...

CD $14.69  5 stars
At the same time the Sex Pistols were pursuing "Anarchy in the U.K.," half a world away in Australia, Aussie punks the Saints were staging their own revolution. Their anxious, adrenalized R&B sound takes the reverb rock & roll riffs of '60s American surf, lay it in a rumbling, rolling bass undertow, and bring it to a boil with thundering drums that keep the pace crackling. Imagine the blitzkrieg bop pop sense of the Ramones if they'd beaten on the ...
