Re: your favorite "best of" disks
I understand the goal of this thread, but it's still hard for me to pick out Best Of discs that I like more than others. It really boils down to bands whose greatest hits or singles I like that I don't own the albums of. Or just bands I like that happened to have put out Best Of albums.

I suppose I would say

Underworld '1992 - 2002'
Smashing Pumpkins 'Rotten Apples'
Soundgarden 'A-Sides'
Pixies (Whatever the cd is called)
Violent Femmes 'Add It Up 1983-1993' (Used to love this, and it's still great, but now I prefer their self-titled first release)
Jimi Hendrix 'Ultimate Experience'

I guess my final answer is The Vaselines 'The Way of the Vaselines' but that's not really fair because it's their entire recorded output.
