This is a compilation of greatest hits from over the last decade, which makes it a nice, if at times incoherent, sampler from one of today's coolest bands. Galactic offers something for everyone: a spice of soul, a touch of rock, and a pinch of acid jazz--only its mixed bourbon street style. So though it may not be for the Jazz-only crowd, it appeals to 'eclectic' funk-rockers. If you enjoy The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, then Galactic is quite a treat.

If you follow the Louisiana FUNK music scene then you know about Galactic. They are currently without vocals and playing live for the most part, (2007). On this disc check out Century City first, it has one of the funkiest grooves in all of music. It is amazing what three chords, ( the funk bridge in this case ), can do in the hands of masterful musicians. Drummer is a solo artist, don't remember his name but can't forget his licks. Take your time. You will want to turn it up. Music for music lovers. They entertain...

I stumbled across Galactic on an online radio station, it's my new favorite! Their mix of music is great, I am in the process of collecting every album.

This cd's cool and all but its nothing but three songs I havn't heard. I reccomend getting it but I would definately get Late For The Future first. "Do Rag" on this cd is a bad ... song. The whole things good but I was hoping for some more new stuff.

This truely is an awesome c.d. Galactic is amazing live and this c.d. backs up my statement. If ur a fan, then u really need this album in ur collection. Welcome to New Orleans.

err.....maybe you heard it before since this is a greatest hits compilation....
