Its rather free form structure means that you never know what to expect from any particular title. The approaches range from detailed studio notes to memoir to more abstract critique. In my own experience; Ive found that my relationship to the music itself bears little relation to my enjoyment of a particular title.The Greatest Hits is a way around this problem. Volume 1 contains selections from each of the first 20 books in the series. (For a full list; consult the publishers website.) While the first 20 titles do skew a tad towards the classic rock canon; there are appearances by The Smiths; James Brown; Prince; ABBA; Radiohead.I enjoyed having samples of each of these titles. In some cases; I plan on reading the entire volume; while in others I know that a particular authors approach simply isnt for me. As with a buffet; the parts you prefer may be different from mine; but theres sure to be something here to fill your belly.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Like all the other books; solid if you love a good angle on an album you like.By Stacy GreenbergI bought Vol. 1 and 2. I usually have the album playing in the background as Im reading. If youre that music nerd like me; then youll love any 33 1/3 release. This is a nice sampler.7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Glorious triviaBy David M. MaddenAs the disclaimer at the beginning of this book advises; the 33 1/3 series is not for everyone. People who canonize their favorite albums; feeling that their commitment to and investigation of said discs (i.e. the search for the actual recording speed of The Cures The Top and the reason that Robert Smith didnt catch this before mastering) gives them some sort of ownership; eat these books for three squares and a snack. Others will find the dedication of an entire tome to one record a tad heavy-handed; pedantic and verbose. With that in mind; this collection includes a chapter from each of the first twenty volumes of 33 1/3; just enough to get you started. The editors genius behind such a gesture is two-fold. He knows that those who arent already addicted and own each book will shortly do so after reading a few slices; you might only own those covering Meat is Murder and Unknown Pleasures; but the geek in you will even care about Abba Gold and The Piper at the Gates of Dawn before youre through. Second; those with even a modicum of interest in the music-making process (those who only glance at magazines for their source of music info) will be able to sustain their interest with these Readers Digest portions. At the very least; the hot pink cover - and the featured cartoonish hot chick - will provide a nice contrast to your theory library and impress the girl you manage to bring back to your lair...
