Greatest hits is fine if an artist has entirely mediocre albums but some fine songs.
Beatles and Byrds are good examples of this.
Robert Davis
It's okay, user. We know you're not like other girls. You're so special.

>Listening to exclusively one song by a band and refusing to hear any other song in fear of damaging the mental picture that this song has painted you of the people who wrote it
Jack Hill
I listen exclusively to this
Camden Torres
I did this found some stuff I would of never paid no mind too
Kevin Smith

literally every song the Beatles made is great, change my mind
William Rivera
Eagles greatest hits is one of the top selling albums of all time
Aiden Williams
is it just me or does most eagles songs sound the same
Luke King
I can't, Beatles fans tend to be hella dedicated, but when I listen to Revolver for example I only want to hear Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, I'm only sleeping and that tripped out sitar-psych track
The other tracks I find dull, same thing with Pepper or Abbey road or any other albums. A few undeniable bangers, and what to me sounds like a bunch of filler.
Should I never ever listen to Beatles if this is how I feel about their albums? Seems ridiculous. Of course a best-of is the way to go for me.
Juan Brooks
of course not all of them are masterpieces (especially not the early stuff, that was garbage) but to each their own ig
William Smith
They're a useful way of discovering a new artist, especially if the artist has loads of albums and you're not quite sure where to begni.

Speak of the devil, but why does this asslick love GH collections so much?
Zachary Brown
That doesnt mean shit, most lps have bullshit filler songs wich must be avoided after a couple plays. What are you, a fucking fanboy?
Andrew Wright
Most pop artists' albums are full of generic, uninteresting filler between the hit singles. Especially artists from the 50s-60s. Nothing wrong with greatest hits albums in those cases.
Chase Smith
>updated version of the album comes out with added songs that didn't make the final cut
Asher Evans
Every album will have at least one dud song on it. Though in some cases a song makes more sense if listened to as part of an album than it does by itself.
Matthew Richardson
>69 songs
Hell yeah bro
Charles Baker
>never heard of a singles band
>is not interested in Greatest Hits that were curated by the band themselves to uncover how they understood their own work
>not interested in Greatest Hits formed by a community of fans acting as popular judge and supporters of an artist's success.
I agree in avoiding the record stooge career spanning one-stop shop. And you should always dig below a greatest hits, but some bands best material is their greatest hits.
