I would highly recommend buying this album, and buying it directly from Fat Wreck, because for a couple extra bucks you can get a bad@ss picture book chronicling the band's history with the album. I just got it a few days ago and this record hasn't left my CD player yet. It just sheds light on Good Riddance's early stuff/ rare stuff, some of which I had already, but its full of some gems. Stuff from 7"'s, compilations and whatever else is found on here with commentary from Russ in the liner notes. Don't sleep on it, they disbanded in '07 but for me, and a lot of folks, Good Riddance lives on. Standouts include "Stand," "Lame Duck Arsenal," "Off the Wagon," "Always," "Remember When," "Not So Bad," and a wicked sounding early version of "Last Believer," just to name a few. As someone who has seen them half a dozen times and has their whole catalog scattered about in different media forms here and there, this record is a fantastic supplement to the studio and live stuff and shouldn't be looked over. I love it.
