Well, consider the reasonable aspect of space! To have a comprehensive "Best of" of every era of Fleetwood Mac, you would need at least 4 discs. This band is very unique in that it has had several different and distinct lives (and fan bases). The recent Best of was to encapsulate the band as it existed from 1975 onward, laying ground for the new Say You Will release.

Perhaps, for accuracy sake, they should have specified with dates -- in the title-- exactly what era of the band this "Best of" represented.

Notably, in the UK version ---where the blues era band was very popular -- they did include a few Peter Green tunes. Still, that seems very incongruous to me. If anything, they should also release a Best of from that era. Hell, how about one from the Bob Welch era?
