It's a perfect 50/50 split between Jamison and Bickler. 7 tunes from each era.

It's just far from "The Very Best Of."

Ultimates continues to live up to its name and be the reigning champ.

I agree this is not the best of collection . Much like the Eddie Money Playlist it lacks a lot of tunes .

Survivor had a different sound with Dave Bickler & Jimi Jamison .

I was hoping for a bonus track or unleased Jimi Jamison vocal performance.
Vital Signs and more great tunes besides the hits on here.
When Seconds Count had the best sound of all their cds but it seems it gets neglected.

Anyway , the cover is cool and most casual fans probably don't have some of the obscure non hits that Bickler performed.

I agree , unless the disc contains a couple tunes nobody has heard it isn't all that special.

Agree to that, the cover is terrific will be buying to support the band 1st, liner notes second (with Jeremy H involved and Frankie having done new interviews they will be good) but that cover is kickass.
