Enjoyable music to just get carried away in
Vocals don't really fit the music - a bit too chilled and not gravelly enough

Funky & Modern.
A Few Weak Tracks.

Good if you like chaos, some good music
Largely a bit of a mess

None

Great sound quality, clear, some new songs, good arrangements, less airy fairy - at last!
Only ten live songs on the album and Led Zeppelin's cover of Rock and Roll isn't one of them..
Philadelphia Freeway 2 - Freeway
Lots of big tunes
A couple of average tracks
Sheik Yerbouti - Frank Zappa
Humorous lyrics, awesome music
Maybe slightly mainstream for Zapperists!

Very good vocals, music, lyrics.
A couple of weaker links
Greatest Hits - Neil Young
Great selection of tracks
Not necessarily 'best' but 'most played' hits
