AMG Review of Greatest Hits, Vol. 1-3

Thom Jurek
All Music Guide

All three volumes of Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits come packaged here in a slipcase box. Nothing new is added, nothing taken away. Alas, though, like the CDs themselves, this is a (specially priced) four-disc box set, since Dylan's Greatest Hits, Vol. 2 was originally issued as a double LP and followed suit on compact disc. For those who have incomplete sets or are missing Vol. 3 -- or for the very adventurous newcomer -- this might be a way to go. Otherwise, the issue of this thing is downright puzzling, except that it might look cool on the shelf.
