That out of the way, this was (in 1994, at least) the best way to get all their "new" era hits in one place. Even though the guys now probably have more hits collections than some bands have albums, this is the best place IMHO for a new fan of their 1987-1994 to start.
Starting with 87's PERMANENT VACATION, we have the hilarious, pop/metal classic tale of "Dude Looks Like A Lady"; the sweet but still rocking 80's power ballad "Angel"; and the somewhat old style bluesy hard rocker "Rag Doll."
1989's PUMP gets four songs. The funny office fantasy arena metal "Love in an Elevator"; the serious and edgy yet melodic "Janie's Got a Gun"; and the more stripped down power ballad "What it Takes"; and the somewhat Rolling Stones sounding rocker "The Other Side."
1993's GET A GRIP gets the biggest representation with five (!) songs. The cannibalism in-jokes of the underrated minor hard rock hit "Eat the Rich"; the mid tempo and more serious classic rocker "Living on the Edge"; and the three soundalike longer rock ballads "Cryin," "Amazing," and the emotional huge hit "Crazy" (with the Alicia Silverstone video).
There's also three songs that were recorded new for this collection. The hard rock swagger of the slightly 70's yet modern "Walk on Water," the more serious, also older sounding "Blind Man" and the poppy semi ballad "Deuces Are Wild."
There's several smaller hits and popular album tracks missing. PV's title track and "Hangman Jury"; PUMP's hard rockers "Young Lust" and "Monkey on My Back"; GRIP's "Line Up," as well as the Run DMC version of "Walk This Way." I'd recommend anyone a step up from a casual Aero' fan of this era to pick up all three of these albums represented here, but, as I said, this is a good starting place to see which songs you prefer.
All those albums have a slightly different sound. PV was the pop/hair metal sounding one - like Bon Jovi and Def Leppard meet classic rock. PUMP was the gritty hard rock one with some 80's thrown in. GRIP was the part retro, part modern mellower classic rock one.
