4 out of 5 stars Not volume 5 but a box set of volumes 1-3.......2003-03-17

I own Classic Alternatives Volumes 1-4 and was so delighted to see that they had a volume 5 out. I purchased the cd before the tracklist was posted and was very upset to see that it was NOT a NEW volume but a box set compilation of Volumes 1-3 with the same exact tracks. If you do not currently own any of the other volumes, buy this cd immediately. The songs are fantastic! However, if you aready own one or more of the volumes, you may be better off to just purchase the cd's individually. ...If you are interested in the Classic Alternatives CD's, you should also check out the Hardest Hits Collection. Also very cheap, and loaded with great rare remixes.
