this has to be the 100,000 best of the little river band.

they need to re-issue the individual CD's at a decent price, ever try to find a used little river band CD that is not a best of or greatest hits?

LRB are ideal for compiling -- many big singles, but not many famous album tracks -- and this release might be the best of the best-ofs.

No, I haven't. And I don't think anyone else has either.

I've still got the "Special Offer!" coupon in the two CD set "Reminiscing" for a "Rarities" CD to by my knowledge was never released. Here's what it said...

"Save this coupon for an exciting future release...As a purchaser of this Little River Band anniversary package, you are entitled to buy a third CD containing LRB rarities. This collection sporting a 'consumer friendly' price, which include rare outtakes, unreleased B-sides, and some stunning live material with surprise guests. Simply send a postcard with your name and address, and details will be sent to you as soon as the new package is ready. This CD will not be available in stores. All cards should be addressed to..."

I sent the card, but never heard a thing. I have no problem with this collection, but to Renny's (God Help Me! :facepalm:

) point, I'd love to see the reissues that add some of the things that should have been included in the rarities that they mentioned.

Everything that everybody wants should be available.

I just get tired of compilations being criticised "because there are already too many" or as if a new comp is preventing the reissue of the original albums. Neither notion is true.

Also, I like the song "Reminiscing" and shouldn't be made fun of for that. (Which happened to me in school once.

)
