With there being a greatest hits' compilation already called "the Spirit of Radio: Greatest Hits 1974-1987", a two disc "Chronicles", "Gold", and three disc "Retrospective" c.d's sets, and revised, and put together my versions of three, and four disks of them, I'll revise, and change the first greatest hits including replacing Red Barchetta for Bastille Day, and put together a second greatest hits' compilation, and name it "Roll the Bones: Greatest Hits 1989-2012". They would be:

 

Working Man

Fly By Night

Bastille Day

2112

I. Overture

II. the Temples of Syrinx

Closer to the Heart

the Trees

the Spirit of Radio

Freewill

Limelight

Greatest Hits albums don't do much for me. I prefer to buy the studio albums then make my own compilations.

That's what the OP is kinda' asking you to do here. :)

[Planet X-1]

Not into CD compilations really, I like how albums used to flow: 4-5 songs, flip the tape or record and another 3-4 songs....somewhat of musically journey and nice little ear break.

 

Nice comprehensive song list, btw, but by Track12 “Closer To The Heart” - 2:51....I'd be looking at my watch....
