I stole this from the NEWSGROUP..... any truth to this?
"talked to a band member backstage recently and the hip plan to release a 4 disc "Best Of" in the next couple years, one disc will be a live
album, one disc eill be unreleased tracks, and the remaining two discs
will be singles...im looking forward to the live stuff and the
unreleased stuff but i coould go without the "best of" part with all of
their "hits"........."

I hope so...it sounds really cool, if done right.
Also, did anyone else start humming 50-Mission Cap after reading thecompletist's first sentence? :wink:

Wow, I can't wait for that.
I hope they don't take time off until that is released.
I need 2 Kingston Tickets, please help.

I read that too, but I'm kinda lukewarm about it. I suppose the live and unreleased stuff would be cool, but I don't really want a GH CD since I already have everything they've done, as I'm sure most of you do too.

well if they do it, lets just hope it comes in two parts sold separately.

I agree, I have many unreleased songs burnt to CD... but "Soundboard" copies are what I want. I am sure there maybe one or two we don't know about either. A greatest Hits is great for a party too when you have a chunk of people who aren't as Hardcore as us...

This seems unlikely to me. To my understanding, sales of Hip albums are on the decline, and a package such as this would be too disjointed to appeal to a large enough audience.
You've got the hard core fans who would love to get there hands on the two cd's of rare stuff but may be unwilling to pay $60 or $70 for a package that includes two cd's of material they already own. Conversely you'll end up with casual fans who might be very willing to buy a one or two cd set of 'hits' material, but aren't going to want to shell out for a bunch of 'rejected' material.
I could see these items being released seperately, but not all together.

Not at all! That is one thing I love about the hip, there is not one song i could LEAVE out. I mean there are songs that don't STAY in the live performances, but not having one might turn some fans into SHARKS. I think I would just take that idea, and PUT IT OFF.
