5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic collection for Bisco fans!, April 18, 2006

As with many other jam bands, you either "get" the Disco Biscuits or you don't. If you're not a fan, you can criticize them for their shaky vocals and often for their lack of precision. But if you ARE a fan, then rejoice: here is a collection that somehow outshines the TranceFusionRadio series, giving us quintessential, exciting versions of some of the Biscuits' best songs. The versions of "Voices Insane" and "Basis for a Day" - songs most Biscuits fans have heard many renditions of - offer fresh surprises and relentless intensity. And "Caterpillar'" is included in all its funky glory. The first disk includes some shorter cuts, and the second includes some of the long, drawn-out, ambitious jams the band is known for, making this collection a perfect intro for the Biscuits novice. Highly recommended!

This is a great cd to buy if your new to the biscuits. Do not listen to the reviewer who said this was "boring", he obviously doesn't "get" the disco biscuits. This release has some great versions of some of their best songs in STUNNING audio clarity. The song selections are pretty good for attracting new fans, some versions on here are incredible. Disc 1 has some great highlights with a very solid Voices Insane, Kitchen Mitts, Wet, Spy and the classic rager Caterpillar. Disc two is only four tracks but don't let that fool you. The disc starts off with a pretty standard Story of the World, a classic 30-minute RAGING basis, and one of my favorite Little Shimmy's; sooo smooth and patient. After that is a standard Pat and Dex. Disc two is definately better in my opinion, Little Shimmy is just fantastic. just do yourself a favor and go buy this. HIGHLY recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth buying JUST for the Basis, April 6, 2011

If you're unfamiliar, or a casual listener of this band then Disc 1 offers a solid range of the band's technical prowess, genre-breaking movements, and unrivaled trance rock experimentation.

When you're ready, Disc 2 will blow your socks off. Disc 2, track 2 "The Basis For A Day" is some the most innovative, exciting and jaw-dropping music ever recorded in a live environment in the history of rock n' roll in my opinion. It is nearly 30 minutes of other-worldly creation.
