There's won't be other trax added...it just wouldn't make sense. It's The Best of...and those are all the main singles. Whoever typed up one of those tracklistings just made some mistakes. Why would they accidentally leave so many trax off it and how would they fit 21 JJ+FP trax on 1 CD?!?

It can be done AJ, if you read the Legacy Recordings description in the other topic, it said it will bring us unreleased trax. Dont count it out man.

Yeah it says that all of these compilations that they release have exclusive material so there's definately hope that we might get something, I think one of Busta Rhymes' albums had 20 tracks on the CD, Dr. Dre's "Chronic 2001" had 21 tracks, there are rare occurances like that, hopefully this one of them, the more, the better...

That's just how i thought it would be...all the main hits. I'm hoping they have the remixes of "Ring My Bell" and "The Things U Do" since that's what they used 4 the videos.

that's the same tracklisting tower records had up too a while ago, but the legacy site still says theres open spots. i will be very disapointed if there isnt one b-side or unreleased remix on this compilation. if there isnt anything new, i probably wont buy this album for a long time.

I'm not sure if I will buy this new best of cd, because I don't need another compilation with the
main hits on it. I got the Greatest Hits from 1998 3 times (European, USA and Japan releases),
Before the willennium and Platinum & Gold Edition, I think this is enough.
If they really copy the best hits in the same version as they are on the greatest hits, then it
would be a waste of money, no matter how good the cover is.
But that's my personal opinion. If you wanna buy it, please do it. I will only buy it, if there are
any new b-sides on it, because I personally don't care about remixes and I don't need the album
version of Summertime again and again.

That cover really is nothing special. If it was a "Code Red" era pic, then id be more excited I guess. The font is way to plain as well. However I will be getting this simply for "Brand New Funk" and "Jazzys Groove" remastered.

i dont get what the big deal is with remastered n ****. its just a gimmick to me, it sounds the same as the old stuff, it's just that the volume is perked up a bit.

it brings all the old sounds to the forefront.. in the remastered tracks on platinum and gold I heard things I never heard on the original recordings.. I'm all that sounds a lot better remastered in my opinion :wiggle:

maybe i'll have to listen to them side to side. if you have to listen to them side to side just to notice the difference is it even worth it tho?
