4.0 out of 5 stars
The good news is..., February 14, 2001
When a band releases a "best of" compilation, most of the time it means a culmination of its long career together, unless they end up being around for 10 more years or so (i.e. Petra). When a band releases a "best of" compilation after only two albums, however, one has to wonder. It's a shame, really; Plumb is (or was) one of the best light-alternative Christian bands out there, and for them to call it quits or split up at this point would have to be insane. Now, if they received a different calling, I would understand, but otherwise I have to ask myself, "Why now? Why so soon?" Hopefully this isn't the case. There're a lot of great songs on this CD; most addicting being "God-shaped Hole" and the danceable "Crazy". A few songs appear on the CD more than once, though; the remix of "Who Am I" and the regular version aren't even five tracks apart. Just one of the drawbacks of releasing a "best of" so early. All-Star United did the same thing, putting out "Smash Hits" in 1999 after only two albums. I really hope Plumb isn't done yet; I think they have a lot more to contribute as a band with a sound as great as theirs. If you're thinking of getting this CD, you might as well spend a few extra bucks and get their two albums instead so you can get the full Plumb experience.

Blown Away...., December 28, 2000
By A Customer
The Best Of Plumb is a great CD. It is great for people just stumbling across Plumb because it's a compilation of her first 2 CD's. Tiffani Arbuckle is definatly a great song writer, singer, and performer. With Tiffani writing such music as Mandy Moore's "I Want to be With You" truly shows her talent in writing. I guarentee you that one day, Plumb will be big. And I can't wait to hear more of them.

Perfect for All, September 2, 2000
"Best of Plumb" is a great album for new Plumb fans. You get a taste of her two previously released albums. People who have just discovered Plumb should check out this album to get an idea on her music. She does a very nice job of choosing the best of both. If you like this CD, go and get her other two because there are some favorites of hers that she did not include on this album! Crazy, Late Great Planet Earth, Sobering, Who am I, Here with me, and Concrete are just some of the great up-beat/alternative songs that keep you moving. Phobic, Damaged, Pennyless, and stranded are her best soft and gentle songs that are just beautiful. This is a terrific CD. For veteran Plumb fans, it's a great CD to pop in and just let it play without fishing for your favorites ;) New and old fans will also love the remixes. They're great! They are mixed nicely with new tempos and instruments to give them a differet flavor. Great CD. Go Plumb!!!!!
