I just discovered this one today, though it came out in June. I've added it to my top 10 of 2014 list!

Disc 1 is an interesting "best of" (interesting as it doesn't include their biggest USA hit, "Get To You", though there is a live version on disc 2).

More important to fans is disc 2, which includes 15 b-sides, 2013 live recordings & alt versions; 6 of which I didn't already have & I'm a hard core DRN collector (I had to buy a bunch of import cd singles & a best of to get the tracks from disc 2 I do have)

For once, we also get decent CD hard rock mastering: it's a DR 12 (possibly best sound ever for these recordings & I'm PICKY about song quality!)

If you're a DRN fan, this is a must buy; not sure if I'd recommend it to a newcomer to DRN (probably should start with the Mercury self titled major label debut; link immediately below),

But to all: It's really good!! (there is NO bad DRN!)

While they were originally from Portland, Ore; DRN was huge in Europe, but never made it here in the USA. Think Prince's hard rock side, or Jesse Johnson's 2 & 3rd albums.

I might have to check this out. I really wanted to see them when they were in Seattle a month or two back, but couldn't make it.

I didn't even know about the show or i would have gone. I do THINK the current Network is DR + whoever he's playing with at the time as a backing band. Last I heard, he's now living in Europe & mostly playing solo acoustic.

I saw them 2x in the 80's: Once in a bar on their way down saleswise (but still a GREAT show), & once at Bumbershoot.

It was at one of the dives in Seattle. It was either Studio 7 or El Corazon.
