Amazon.co.uk Review
It's easy to dismiss the music of this cute, vegan, bare-pated relative of Herman Melville, especially if you don't actually listen to the music and focus instead on his ultra-PC interview style or the manner in which he sold dozens of songs to commercials and film soundtracks back in Y2K. But to do so is to knee-jerkedly miss out on some very fine and innovative music by one of the most influential musicians of the last decade. With the exception of two tracks (one of them the title tune), Go is a best-of from the years that Moby's been on the V2 label, from 1999's breakthrough hit Play onward. But Play--with its uncanny reworking of field recordings with playful beats and ambient textures--remains the artist's finest moment. A full disc of remixes and a smattering of unreleased songs (including a rad new number with Debbie Harry on guest vocals) make this an essential purchase for rabid fans. And, as a judicious selection of Play-era material is included alongside the finest songs from Moby's subsequent albums, 18 and Hotel, this is also the perfect entry point for the more casual fan. --Mike McGonigal

CD Description
This fifteen track 'Best Of' compilation includes hits 'Porcelain', 'Go' and 'Natural Blues' as well as brand new single 'New York, New York', featuring vocals from Blondie's Debbie Harry. The album is an overall view of Moby's classics, with some new mixes that will please those already very familiar with his work.

Customer Reviews

The Best Of... Part 1 perhaps?
I'll admit, this is generally a good album filled with Moby classics, and a few that are new to me. But alot of songs have been left out that would have clearly be good enough to be on this album. However, this can't be changed, so on the upside of of it all, their are some fine tracks, obvious choices include the likes of Porcelain and Why does my heart feel so bad, not to mention a perfect ending with the incredibly uplifting 'Feeling so real' (and I mean incredibly!).
While this is sure enough a good album, i'd still invest in the original Moby albums to get best. But as I always say with classics or 'best of' albums, is their any need to buy it if you own the original albums? Obviously not. But in this case, its a double edged knife, because even the new listeners of Moby just won't hear the best songs on this album.
If you find this cheap, its worth a buy, but the original albums are much better value, as well as quality content.

Not the best of
The thing about Moby is that, with regard to his last three albums, he produces some truly amazing songs (many of which I would say are genius) but also a lot of album fillers. So I can't listen to one of his albums from start to finish.

A compilation was therefore only a matter of time. I indeed produced my own of 12 tracks a couple of years ago and I'm still listening to it today.

I can't understand why some of the great tracks are not on this compilation, eg Signs of Love, Dream About Me and Extreme Ways.

That said, the other good tracks are there. But then it all comes down to personal opinion. I would recommned getting the last three albums and making my own compilation.

Not the greatest!
Got this album and thought it would be good, but left dissapointed!

All the songs that you would except are there, except Extreme Ways, which I can not believe is missing!

Seems to be made up mostly from "play", with 1 song picked from "18" and "Hotel" and the odd pre-Play song.

Some good songs, but for a "best of" is rather short and not the best selection that could have been picked.
