Foo Fighters' 'Greatest Hits' and Other Best-Ofs You Might Enjoy

Wednesday November 4, 2009
Foo Fighters' Greatest Hits, which was released this week, spans the band's 15-year career by focusing on their many hits. Best-of collections are an interesting thing -- they're a great introduction to a band you may not know much about, but ideally they'll also get you interested enough to explore that group's studio albums in order to get a better understanding of all their sonic dimensions.

With that in mind, I've put together a list of the Top 10 Greatest-Hits Collections and included notes on what these compilations do and don't include. With the holidays just around the corner, these albums might make for fun stocking-stuffers for that young rock fan in your life.
