4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent SINGLE DISC Best Of, July 13, 2006

This review is from: Private Investigations: Best of (Audio CD)

I recently picked this up and have enjoyed listening to it. However, I thought I was getting the 2-Disc Set, it has the same title. My own stupidity, I guess. The single disc cover is a grayish/brownish cover while the double disc cover is a blueish color. Other than that, they're identical, with Knopfler's red strat being prominently displayed.

All that being said, I wish I'd paid closer attention to my purchase and got the 2-Disc set.

I miss having "Telegraph Road", "So Far Away", "Calling Elvis", "Darling Pretty", "Long Road", "Sailing To Philadelphia", and "Trawlerman's Song" on my CD.

This is STILL the best SINGLE DISC Best Of out there by Dire Straits, but spend the extra dollars to get the 2 CD collection instead.
