Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars WAR release.......2005-12-06

Let me start by saying this music is great. The Samples are one of the best and most original bands out there. This cd has a lot of good music. Why the 1 star? The musicians who make up the Samples do not get any of the royalties from any of these songs or for this album. The WAR (What Are Records) label owns the rights on the Samples work from 1989 to 1994 (this should explain Heathcliff's complaint about a lack of songs after 1994).

The current incarnation of the band has put out better compilations of their work in Landing on the Sidewalk, Sparta, and Anthology. Go out and buy some of the original more recent Samples including Here and Somewhere Else, and Return to Earth.

3 out of 5 stars Just a "Sampling"........2005-10-10

Sometimes I wonder if there will ever be a perfect collection released for any artist. This does a decent job, but do any casual fans really care about the DVD? And why is this only up to 1994, where's everything since? Also, even from the years presented, where are well known songs like "Everytime", "Who Am I?", and numerous others? Just like the bloated 3-disc collection "Anthology In Motion", this could be better. God knows The Samples deserve a simple 18 track career-spanning "best of", and so do we. Still though, great songs, and their best release since "The Last Drag" album.
