3 stars If you want a one disc introduction to this worthwhile Dutch group, this is not bad. It includes their hits (in Holland) She was naked and Radio - songs that have stood the test of time and still sound remarkably fresh after more than 30 years. You also get a taste of their longer works with Dona Nobis Pacem and A girl like you. Of course, as with most compilations, investing in the orginal albums will ultimately be more rewarding. However for a fringe group like Supersister, who at least in my opinion did not reach the level of their compatriates Earth and Fire, Focus or Kayak, a single disc is a good option.

4 stars Of course this isn't a prog masterpiece, it's only a way to get easily into Supersister. It contains their greatest hits, She was Naked and Supersister, and also some other tracks from their 3 studio albums (Present from Nancy, To the Highest Bidder, Pudding & Gisteren). There are also some B-Sides that appear on Superstarshine vol. 2.

Although it's only a compilation, I think it's a quite good way to start with the music. It shows the many influences of the band in a chronologic order (except from the last song, it was a b-side from "She Was Naked") and I recommend it to anybody who likes progressive rock but has never heard of Supersister before.

4 stars Good compilation to meet Supersister.

To make this cd interesting for fans, they should have left off "Dona Nobis Pachem" and included "Judy Goes On Holiday" and the single version of "A Girl Named You"
