Don't you think albums should mean original albums? "Best of" and compilations are cherry picking.

Keep in mind - the Marley set was done conceptually as a new album...it wasn't strictly a best-of, since the idea was to do a series of ambient electronic dubs. Otherwise, I shy from best-of albums unless, as was the case with Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits Vol. II, the performer himself puts it together in a way so as to tell a certain kind of story through it...
