The Best of INXS

The Best of INXS is a decent one-disc retrospective of INXS's career. While I do not think it contains everything one might want from the band, it's got the major songs, including my absolute favourite, the awesome "Don't Change." Other great hits include "What You Need," "The One Thing," and "Never Tear Us Apart." A pleasant surprise came in the form of the Dan the Automator remix of "Tight," the newest of tracks on this collection, and a cool one at that. While the best INXS collection I can see appears to be Shine Like It Does: The Anthology (1979-1997), The Best of INXS is a decent collection for casual fans or those looking for a less expensive purchase to get most of the biggest hits. (Also, "Salvation Jane" and "Tight" are not present on the other collection, if those are in any way a deal breaker.)
