DON'T WASTE YOUR $ ON THIS SUB-PAR AUDIO, VERY OLD CD

This CD was released nearly 20 years ago, and is being sold for ridiculous prices to the uninformed. There are several options to obtain the same content, and in much better audio, for far less money.



First, there's the 2008 "Fill Your Head: The Studio Albums 1969-1974" set, which provides the complete primary, five album repertoire (Get Ready, Ecology, One World, Willie Remembers & Ma, plus singles and rare tracks) in matched audio. However, the set has some limitations, so please make sure you read my review before laying out nearly sixty dollars for it. It does, however, have better sound than this CD.



Optionally, you can assemble a great Rare Earth compilation, for less money, by purchasing The Millennium Collection, The Very Best Of & Ma, all of which have superior audio to both this disc and the "Fill Your Head" set. You just have to decide if those three discs will suffice to meet your Rare Earth needs.



Again, read my "Fill Your Head" review for this option.



So, before unnecessarily laying out big bucks for this ancient disc, check out the my suggested options. You'll be happy you did, and your wallet will thank you."
