Extreme

Another Greatest Hits album - there's lots of good stuff on albums other than III above. I debated not getting this, but I thought it'd be a good idea when I wanted to hear Extreme other than the first 6 songs of III - which are brilliant. This disc is pretty damn solid.

My lone entry (well, when I started this page anyway) for the "E" page is this brilliant Extreme album from 1992. It's their third, hence the name. The first six tracks on this album are just absolutely brilliant, and are some of the best songs musically and lyrically I've ever heard. Beyond that, it's just "OK", but those songs are more than enough to carry the rest of the album. I used to have more Extreme albums, but I really only liked one or two songs from each, so I dumped 'em.

After giving this album a listen again in the Summer of 2006, I stand by my previous statements. Best Extreme album there is. Shame these guys broke up, although I rather did like the Van Halen album with Gary Cherone, too. :)
