EXTENDED VERSIONS - THE ENCORE COLLECTION

Another live tracks compilation, in this case with tracks from the first volume of their "Keys to Ascension" album. The only recorded live track from that first volume not included in this compilation is "The Revealing Science of God". It has good songs, but like other compilations of songs taken from live albums, I can`t see a very good reason to buy it, more if you have the two volumes of "Keys of Ascension" which have all the songs which were played in those three concerts they played in March 1996 in San Luis Obispo, California. This compilation is more like a "bargain compilation" released by a record label which also has released similar packages under the "Extended Versions" title from different bands, Prog and not Prog Rock bands. Good more for the casual listener or the record collector.
