4 and a 1/2 stars really, as you get only 20 tracks, but they are among the finest remastered tracks available, depite being re done in 1985. The reason is the sound engineer was Steve Hoffman, google him, he makes BH seem to be in your living room. He was a pioneer of finding, then using the original first order master tapes. Two tracks are in stereo, apparently the other 2 stereo tracks, ( BH only did 4 ), were lost at the time, fortunately they have now been found. I will make no comment about his early death or the influence of his music as others have said it so many times, but if sonic quality is important this is a must buy I also recommend, Gold (2CD) 50 tracks on 2 CD's
