A best of compilation album should at least contain a majority of the best tracks, and this only just achieves this as several great tracks are missing and it contains some tracks that makes you wonder how they found their way to this. At least "Hot Love", "Ride a White Swan", and "Children of the Revolution" are found here. They are all single hit tracks (from Feb. 1971, Oct. 1970, and Sep. 1972 respectively) and they weren't included on any of the band's studio album releases.
