{@Rhino}'s 2002 release {^The Very Best of Ashford & Simpson} comes very close to being a complete greatest hits, but it stumbles on a major point -- it only contains two songs from the group's {@Capitol} recordings from the early '80s, including the hit

Think circular knitting is too hard? Not with Very Easy Circular Knits.

This mid-priced DVD is a bit misleading. Although it is never stated explicitly, the disc is comprised of three documentary programs about the show -- albeit with extensive clips -- rather than complete installments of The Honeymooners, with one complete
A vocal pop group along the lines of the Fleetwoods, the lesser-known Castells have their career highlights collected on Collectables' The Very Best of the Castells. Essentially a reissue of the K-Tel collection The Best of the Castells, this album includes most of the group's 1962 album So This Is Love, as well as several of their singles. "So This Is Love," "I Get Dreamy," "Echoes in the Night," and "On the Street of Tears" are among the high points of this collection, which offers the most complete look at the Castells available. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
50 years after the release of johnny o'keefe's 'the wild one', which heralded the birth of rock'n'roll in australia, here for the first time these classic songs are presented as a complete collection that have been mastered to sound like they belong together from the very start to the ends of these discs. This collection of songs is not just another compilation - it is a new album. It has been put together with an almost forensic process. Simply put, this is the best johnny o'keefe has ever sounded. Further details will follow as they come to hand.
Divided into "sunrise" and "sunset" sections, this excellent compilation (put together by Paul Fisher, an acknowledged expert on Far Eastern music) is more than a basic introduction to the music. And there's plenty of variety, from the timeless gloss of Ryuichi Sakamoto's "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence" to the sugary folk-pop of Okinawa's Nenes. The Ryukyu Underground bring a modern perspective, while David Darling's celebrated collaboration with the Wulu Bunun offers a different take on mixing East and West. China's FM3 show that plenty of interesting new sounds are brewing in the East, and "Hannyashingyo" shows a Buddhist guitarist searching his way around the world. Meanwhile, no record covering this part of the world would be complete without Shoukichi Kina -- and this makes sure he's included. This stands out wonderfully from the welter of world music compilations, offering a very complete picture of music that's still largely unknown to many Westerners. ~ Chris Nickson
The British version of The Very Best of UB40 1980-2000 offers a large collection of songs that are often associated with the group ("Red Red Wine") and many that later-period fans may not be familiar with. Although the album may not be complete, there is
Although several other hard rock acts have seen their hits repackaged more times than Kiss (namely the Who, Motörhead, Black Sabbath, etc.), the masked quartet certainly isn't far behind, as 2002 saw the group's latest in a long line of collections, The Very Best of Kiss. Despite recycling many of the same selections over and over on these sets (1978's Double Platinum, 1988's Smashes, Thrashes & Hits, 1997's Greatest Kiss, etc.), fans will flock to the stores to buy any piece of Kiss merchandise to complete their collections, hence the arrival of another of hits. While The Very Best of Kiss does contain a smattering of songs to make their debut on a hits collection (the live version of "Rock and Roll All Nite," "Got to Choose," "I Stole Your Love," "New York Groove," and a few non-makeup-era tracks), the majority of the track listing is comprised of songs already included on the aforementioned previous titles. Instead of finally doing it right and issuing a double-disc set that spans their career (à la the Who's 2002 anthology, The Ultimate Collection), there are too many hits and standout tracks that get skipped over by limiting it to a single disc. For newcomers to the band who want to get a brief overview of Kiss, The Very Best of Kiss is adequate, but certainly not the definitive collection. ~ Greg Prato, Rovi
The Very Best of After 7 gathers a dozen of the group's singles and album highlights, as well as hard-to-find and previously unreleased material. The collection kicks off with a new cover of Hall & Oates' soulful "Sara Smile" that's in keeping with the rest of After 7's smooth, lush style. Several of the group's best songs, including "Heat of the Moment," "Gonna Love You Right," and the hit single "Can't Stop," appear in remix form; it would've been nice to include the album versions of at least a couple of these tracks on the compilation as well. "Ready or Not," "Can He Love You Like This," and "'Till You Do Me Right" are some of the other standouts on the collection, emphasizing After 7's collaborations with Babyface and L.A. Reid. Though it's not as complete a retrospective as it could have been, The Very Best of After 7 does a good job of expressing and defining the group's classic yet fresh take on urban music. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi Performers: Babyface - Keyboards; Keith Andes - Vocoder, Keyboards; Michael Thompson - Guitar

What is a Backpack Bug Out Bag and Do You Need One?
The most efficient way for anyone to carry important stuff around is with the use of a backpack bug out bag. Unlike other types of travel bags, the backpack bug out bag leaves the user's hands and arms free, so it's easier to move around, climb or carry other things. This makes it the top bag of choice for adventurists and travelers, thanks to its strong, sturdy design that allows it to withstand heavy loads.
The backpack bug out bag The backpack bug out bag is a convertible backpack. It can be expanded and turned into a basic travel bag or it can be zipped up and made compact to turn it into a backpack. The main compartment of the bug out bag is expandable, allowing for a larger number of gears and supplies to be packed.
The backpack bug out bag is built for strength and is often made of fabric such as canvas. To avoid tearing, the bag often features reinforced stitching on common stress points. It is also designed with several inner and outer compartments to provide extra storage for small items and easy access to commonly used equipment.
The backpack bug out bag is a popular choice among military personnel, adventure travelers, sports enthusiasts and those whose jobs require long exposure to the outdoors.
Advantages of the backpack bug out bag Probably the best reason the backpack bug out bag is a bestseller is its expandability. Because the bag can be expanded, it offers more room for storage, making packing a breeze. The bug out bag is an excellent choice for backpackers, travelers and adventurists who like to bring along a lot of stuff and pack them in just one bag. It's also an excellent alternative for people who travel for extended periods of time but do not wish to pack more than one bag.
If you are an adventurist, hiker or camper, it is the perfect survival bag to use because it's roomy enough for a number of gears and equipment but handy enough to make traveling on foot easier.
The backpack bug out bag is also excellent for long distance travels, even if it means keeping the bag hanging from your back for long periods of time. The bug out bag has been carefully designed to ensure that the weight of the bag is distributed over the user's center. This makes walking, climbing and running relatively easier because the weight of the bag will not threaten the user's sense of balance, regardless of how heavy the load is.
In terms of comfort, the backpack bug out bag is designed with padded straps and body to provide a buffer zone between the user's back and any hard or sharp contents of the bag. This also makes transport of heavy or numerous items more efficient.
