this is it people. two discs of nothing but their hits and singles. you know when you buy a greatest hits and you really like it but if only they had included just that one song?! well, this has every song you could ever want on it. add the dvd w/ 10 of their videos. this is great too b/c instead of just putting a bunch from one era, it is spaced out. one from each album w/ one exception. (there are 0 from underneath... and 2 from kick.) this is just the ultimate audio and visual testament to inxs. however, if just a single-disc overview is more your thing, then go w/ the definitive inxs, it's much better than the u.s. 'best of.' finally, i disagree w/ the other reviewer. forty bucks sounds like a lot, but it isn't. just keep in mind, you are getting two full length discs and a dvd. that's only 13.50 per disc. and that's for an import. plus free shipping. ok, this is a bargain! trust me, you won't be disappointed.

This is a real great offering of INXS music, it has the same tracks as the previous double disc release but now with their best MTV's. It is also in a double digipak sleeve which resembles a DVD packaging. The 10 From The Years MTV tracks on disc 3 has a really extensive liner notes from the band, making you realize how they felt during those efforts.

All in all, 4 stars however due to the slightly high price. For critics and fans alike.

Cheers Michael!

As a previous review mentioned, there are very few hits or favourites missing from this collection.

Recording quality is good, considering the songs, from different albums, have probably been normalised (same volume level).

Despite the band having a signature sound, there is enough difference between the songs to keep interest throughout this "hits album". Live in a stadium, they would have been a knock-out.
