Having read the previous reviews, I can understand why they may not like the CD, but I've never been a huge Blur fan. I liked all their hits but never really bothered buying any albums, cause at the time, I'd only listen to the songs I knew. This Double CD has all the well known hits, but precious little music heard only on albums and not in the charts. Having said that, there are no real weak tracks in my opinion. Perhaps it should have been entitled 'blur: the best sellers' instead of 'best of' as I get the impression their albums contain many hidden treasures. For me though, this CD satisfies all my Blur needs, with all the well known hits present. So, while all true Blur fans may slate this as the 'hits' and not the 'best of', to newcomers this will appeal, and as I fit in the latter category, I think this CD is great. The live CD is great and the new song 'Music is my Radar' is top. Blur at their best? Perhaps not. Must-have CD if you don't have all the old ones? Definately.

Good Mixture 6 May 2001
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
Blurs "best of" was always going to be good. A wide selection of tunes ranging from the Britpop of "Country House" to the sublime yet bizarre art-rock of "Music Is My Radar" offers a reasonable history of Blurs music. All of which is excellent (unless you listen to "There's No Other Way" too often). Annoyingly, "Popscene" and "Sunday Sunday" aren't included, but you can't blame the band for this as the fans were polled on what to include - so you can hardly say Blur are "ashamed of their early work".

Tracks you'd forgotten were so good: "On Your Own", "For Tomorrow", "She's So High"

An ace CD, charting the change in the bands career. A must for fans and casual observers alike.

The only best of blur album which could possibly show how great they really are, would be a collection of all their songs ever written. With the exeption of a few tracks on 'Leisure' and some of their later b-sides, all other blur tracks have been good at the very least. However this album is not for the fanatical Blurites out there, yes 'Sing','Sunday Sunday' and 'Trimm trab' are missed off but for people who only know the Hits this is their album, because not only does it provide them with some of the most sublime popsongs of the 90s, it also shows them just a few glimpses of the more leftfeild, and in the end rewarding aspects of blur. Maybe after Hearing 'This is a Low' and 'For Tommorow' people will investigate into all six albums and find out the great tracks which have been missed off. The only problem I can see is the fact that popscene has been missed out, to me this seems Churlish because this would have given the fans a reason to buy it, and ended the most frustrating aspect of bieng a blur fan. Hopefully Next year they will bring out a B- side collection for us to. And by the way 'Music is my Radar' rules.

Like the recent 'Midlife' this album is great for beginners. Although as it is a re-release I would have thought they'd have added 'Out of Time'. Read more

A true greatest hits/best of album
Back in the 90's it was Blur or Oasis and I followed Oasis, so I never really listened to Blur. So I don't know why I bought this in the 1st place! But I glad I did. Read more

Good, but you're better off with Midlife
This is a pretty decent compilation of Blur songs, but with the recent release of "Midlife: A Beginner's Guide to Blur" you can get some of the songs missing from this compilation. Read more

Fast delivery, but cd case was damaged
Fast delivery, but the cd case was damaged. This could occur during shipment, but then the package should be more solid. Cd and cover were in perfect condition.

Blur were one of the leading Britpop bands back in the 90's. This album does a good job showcasing the band's best songs. Read more
