The Gits - The Best Of The Gits - Amazon.com Music
The first ever anthology. Sixteen re-mastered tracks. These long out of print songs offer the perfect overview of the legendary Seattle punk band whose rise was interrupted by the tragic murder of front woman Mia Zapata. An inspiration to all riot grrrls who followed, The Gits' music lives on in this CD. Street date coincides with the 15th memorial anniversary of Zapata's death and with "The Gits" release on DVD.

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
First off...I love The Gits. If Mia hadn't been killed...they would've likely been one of the biggest bands in the world. Yes...they were that good.
Next...the Amazon track listing on July 10th 2008 doesn't quite match the CD that I received. The tracks on my CD are:
1. A Change Is Gonna Come 2. Guilt Within Your Head 3. Seaweed 4. Cut My Skin It Makes Me Human 5. It All Dies Anyway 6. Spear and Magic Helmet 7. Absynthe (Live) 8. Another Shot of Whiskey (Live) 9. Insercurities (Live) 10. Here's to Your F**k (Live) 11. Whirlwind 12. Daily Bread 13. Eleven 14. Tempt Me 15. Social Love
Now that is a great set of songs...but I don't think that this CD qualifies as a "Best of". Sadly missing are 'Second Skin'...'Sign of the Crab' and 'While You're Twisting, I'm Still Breathing'...'Beauty of the Rose' and 'Slaughter of Bruce'...among others.
I gave this CD a 4 star rating...would've been a 5 star rating if it was an actual "Best of". Now this is a good sampler for people unfamiliar with The Gits. I strongly recommend the other Gits' CDs...especially "Frenching The Bully"...you won't be disappointed.
