I've waited a long time for a "hits" collection from Cypress Hill, and now that it's out, I see that it's just as disappointing as the House Of Pain "Best Of" was. The reasons are many. There's ONLY 10 hits, only 12 tracks, only 50 or so minutes, and many missing tracks. It has three cuts from the debut, two from "Black Sunday", and then only one pick from each other album, if that? So I ask, where is "Pigs", "Born To Get Busy", "I Wanna Get High", "Hits From The Bong", "Illusions", "Can't Get The Best Of Me", and others? C'mon! On a positive note, what's here is all good, and this would be a decent start for a new fan, which is the point. Oh, and the full title is "Greatest Hits From The Bong", which we always knew it would be called.

3.0 out of 5 stars good but not what I expected, December 31, 2005

Cypress Hill has always given their fans all that and then some; maybe that is why I am left wondering where disc 2 is in this package. This "greatest hits" compilation has only 9 songs from a group that has been putting out top-shelf albums for about 15 years. How can that possibly add up? Don't get me wrong, there isn't a bad song on this cd, but there is so much missing. What would've really worked well for the fans would have been a 2-disc package with the first having songs from cypress hill, black sunday, and temples of boom. The second could pick from IV, skull and bones, stoned raiders, and till death do us part. Also throw some live joints on there ("aint going out like that", "can't get the best of me") from the Fillmore show, and that would be more on the level with showing what the Hill is all about.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Greatest Hits That Needs Improvement....., December 14, 2005

I have been waiting, patiently, for a new album from the Latin Thugs. When this album hit stores, I was kinda disappointed in it. Only 10 songs from all of their material, which base all the way back to 1989. It was disappointing that songs like "Pigs", "Lowrider", "Boom Biddy Bye Bye" and others songs that were classics, did not grace the album. However, the two brand new songs only make up for a small effort. But, for the die-hard Cypress Hill fan, like myself, it shows that they can still make great "hits from the bong". If you really love their music, this is for you. But, if you are looking for every single hit that they have had over the course of their career, then, this is definitely not for you.
