As the title says, Mr. Just missing 'Getting High' from the setlist. Brown is THE GREATEST. Period.


Excellant Collection of Legendary Frontman's Solo Works
A treat for both his faithful followers & the uninitiated, this disc contains some of the finest pop music made in the last 10 years & is highly recommmended. The Greatest by Ian Brown is a collection of the former Stone Roses singer's singles & collaborations dating from 1997 to 2005. Though some of the tracks are in their inferior single versions or slightly remixed, the material shines & the new tracks Reign & All Ablaze are incredible additions to Mr. Brown's catalog. From the triumphant return of debut single My Star to the dance floor filling Love Like A Fountain to the so funky it hurts Dolphins Were Monkeys & beyond this disc is a great retrospective with a few glaring admissions along the way. The unstoppable Getting High from Golden Greats is sorely missed as is the lovely Shadow Of A Saint from Music Of The Spheres. His fun & funky update cover of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean would have been a nice addition as well as Bubbles & Whispers, two of the better tracks from the very good, aforementioned Music Of The Spheres. His terrific collaborations with UNKLE are both included as is the awesome Keep What Ya Got with Noel Gallager of Oasis. For anyone interested in exploring Ian Brown's back catalog, his 4 high quality solo albums prior to this are all worth purchasing (especially the mighty Golden Greats) as he has many good album tracks worth hearing. The catalog of his former band The Stone Roses should be required listening to anyone interested in Rock & Pop music. Expectations for his next solo album are high, happy listening.


BEST CHOICE!
Well, I was NOT dissapointed when I got this CD: Really cool tracks, nice selections and very good collaborations (Keep what ya' got - Noel Gallagher, F. I was never a Die Hard fan of The Stone Roses neither of the Monkey King, but I was always tempted to buy a CD of him as I really love his master piece "I want to be adored" with his former band and solo songs such as "Love like a fountain". E. A. R. - UNKLE and some others great tracks inside!). I could only say that this CD worth every dollar I spent and definitely I can recommend it to any fan or casual listener. .


Amazing...

I will add my two cents
Makes me want to get some of the regular cds to add to this fine collection. Very impressive. If you like Stone Roses - get this one too.
