AMG Review of Rare: Collected B-Sides

All Music Guide

Rare: Collected B-Sides isn't just for the die-hard Moby fan. Compiling a number of B-sides and non-LP singles on a single disc, Rare features a few run-of-the mill remixes, but usually these alternate versions offer a significantly new spin on the songs. More importantly, tracks like the notorious "Thousand" -- which zips by at the impossibly fast speed of a thousand beats per minute -- are included, making it a necessary listen for any dedicated fan of Moby.
