*by E***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 19, 2013*

this  is  a  great  2  cd  set  by  family,  as  any  die  hard  family  or  roger  chapman  fan  knows  by  now  an  amazing  box  set  came  out  last  year  that  has  everything  on  it  with  the  exception  of  bbc  stuff  but  it  costs  a  bit  over  200  bucks  so  if  you  are  not  die  hard  enough  for  that  or  the  price,  this  is  the  best  next  compilation  to  grab,  a  very  well  priced  2  cd  set  that  covers  familys  best  work  from  1968  through  1973,  of  coarse  you  may  find  folks  that  say  this  is  not  on  this  disc  or  that  is  not  on  it  BUT  you  cant  fit  everything  on  just  2  cds  can  you????  anyway  im  very  happy  with  this  and  the  remastering  is  awesome  !!!!  this  also  comes  with  a  nice  informative  booklet  about  the  band  so  if  you  do  not  want  to  grab  the  big  box  set  (  amazon  uk  has  it)  then  i  would  grab  this  next  as  it  is  a  very  very  well  done  budget  compilation,  this  comes  in  a  nice  booklet  style  and  is  not  a  cheap  budget  issue  this  is  one  of  the  better  2  cd  compilations  to  come  out  by  this  long  lost  amazing  rock  band,  i  try  a  lot  when  i  get  asked  WHO  DOES  FAMILY  SOUND  LIKE????  but  i  can  never  say  or  think  of  another  band  that  sounded  like  family  or  anything  like  them  in  the  last  50  years,  any  fan  WILL  LOVE  THIS  CD!!!!  ENJOY.  THE  MUSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How Do You Describe Musical Insanity?
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 15, 2017*

Well, you either love them or hate them.  There isn't much in between.  A band that sounds like no other.....ever!  Friends of mine will leave the room if I put them on.  It is great for emptying the place when you want piece of mind.  That being said, I've always loved this band.  They can be concise and write beautiful ditties like "Children" or "My Friend The Sun"..... but most of the time they sound like they are going completely off the rails with no return in sight.  Try listening to "Good News Bad News" or "Strange Band" and see if it doesn't send you to the mental ward.  If you survive it you may even enjoy the strange mysterious ride.  Roger Chapman can sound like he's exorcising demons that only he can see.  His voice is hard to describe.  It's pointless to even try.  I think it's beautiful but I'm slightly mad so you'd best sample it before taking the plunge.  "History" is a 2 disc set of re-mastered tracks from their amazing career.  It's really hard to believe they lasted as long as they did because they were so weird and different.  I consider their first album "Music In A Dolls House" a psychedelic masterpiece.  But it's not indicative of their entire output.  They got a bit more soft and squishy in their later albums "Bandstand" and "It's Only A Movie" but they were still fantastic with a more subtle approach (if you could ever use the word "subtle" regarding Family)!  If you are afraid after reading this you might just want to try "Fearless" which has a bit of both their madness and softness.  It's a classic that I never get tired of.  But you might want to stay away from "Anyway" which could bring the men in the white coats to your door.  All of their albums are worth their weight in gold to me.  I only wish the current music scene could be this exciting.  Try them out if you dare!!!  This "Family" might become your new relative that you will never want to part with.

    Just a word to the wise!
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 26, 2014*

I agree with everything that has gone before that Family were a wonderful, groundbreaking, but woefully under appreciated, group whose music, especially their early work, still excites and should be recognised. We have all awaited a comprehensive collection of their work which includes material from their first 2 albums ( Music in a Doll's House and Family Entertainment). On the face of it this double CD would appear to fit the bill but please note that the tracks from these 2 albums actually come from the compilation "Old Songs, New Songs". This explains why the Weaver's Answer comes first before the Doll's House tracks and then the other two Entertainment track so that the chronology is distorted. Although the band preferred the new mixes many of us grew up listening to the original albums and I might have preferred to hear these represented and to keep the original order. Anyway, i would still have bought this album but I might have viewed it in a slightly different light. It is probably more of an emotional comment than anything else. Ultimately having everything Family ever released is the real solution.
