A COLLECTION OF GREAT DANCE SONGS is an incohesive compilation that appears to have been tossed together almost absent mindedly in order to pacify CBS records. Contractually, the band may have needed to fill the gap between THE WALL and THE FINAL CUT (released 4 years apart). The track listing almost seems to be a sort of compromise between casual fans ("Another Brick In The Wall", "Wish You Were Here" and "Shine On You Crazy Diamond") and a few bones for the hardcores ("Sheep" and a re-recording of "Money"). Floyd were forced to re-record "Money" after EMI refused to license the song for use in this compilations. The 1981 rendition of "Money" is fairly faithful to the original and serves only as an enticement to collectors. As a whole, the album contains truncated versions of these Floyd classics which just made me feel maddeningly unsatisfied once I'd reached the end of this relatively brief and cobbled together album.

Ok, seriously. I like every single one of the songs on this album a lot but I hate the title of this album. Have you ever tried dancing to Shine on you Crazy Diamond? It's not fun! I'll stick to Pink Floyd's offical releases.
