Advantages: Decent metal tunes and there are 32 tracks which isn't bad for the price. Disadvantages: Quality of some of the live tracks/B-sides
It's an awful burden for bands when they have a hit that gets played just as much as "The Final Countdown" did as it often seems to override any of their other musical accomplishments. This release is an impressive collection of Europe's best tracks as well as live tracks, B-sides and demos and should go to some lengths to prove that they are not a one song band!
In fact on this double disc, 32 track offering it isn't until the second CD that their ... ...us forget about it?
