Yes and ELP have both been comp'd to death. I love both bands but I never look beyond the original albums and maybe one box set from each.

Moody Blues. Especially if you count imports.

To be honest, the major labels have gotten so budget compilation friendly that one could easily create a HUGE list of artists that have a >1:1 compilation-to-original ratio. It's not just the old warhorses anymore.

Paul Simon seems to alternate between releases of new material and then a new compilation.

I'm guessing John was referring to a compilation of their work since they became better known (pretty much from their major label debut, In Absentia, and after). There's a killer comp waiting to be put together there, although every one of those albums is essential to me. And In Absentia in surround sound is thing to behold.

Hendrix must have a compilation-to-album ratio of 30-to-1 by now.
