The Ultimate Symphony X Collection

[Mr. Shred-ididle]

i just installed RealOne player yesterday and i'm just mucking around with alot of the featurs.

One of the features is that you can create a "playlist" and make it into a cd so i decided to make a syx collection.

This made me think, if they made a double-cd "best of" cd (similar to prelude to the mellenium) what would you put?

Rules;
1) The maximum cd legnth is about 75 minutes
2) I don't care if people start bitching about "oh! another one of M.r-shred's threads":Spin:

mine would be
CD 1: Exact time : 75 mins 34 secs.
1. Evolution
2. Fallen
3. Church of the Machine
4. Awakenings
5. King of Terrors
6. Accolade
7. Accolade 2
8. Egypt
9. Death of Balance
10. Rediscovery

CD 2: Exact time: 73 mins 02 secs
1. Inferno
2. Wicked
3. Sea of Lies
4. Communion & the Oracle
5. Eyes of Medusa
6. Through the Looking Glass
7. Orion - the hunter
9. The Odessey

You could also think of this thread as "If SyX ever did a double cd live, what would the best setlist be?"

Looks like a cool set to me (although a few personal favourites are missing).
Speaking of a 'best off': Is Prelude to the Millenium worth buying, when you posess almost all of the sym x cd's ? other than the obvious musical content, I mean?. Is there any cool pics or other artwork worthwhile the shifting of Dollars/Euro's/Yen?

 

[theodyssey]

Prelude to the millenium is worth it for collection completeness only really... but i could be wrong. I have it by the way, but it doesn't often leave my shelf. OK, my best of:

Disc 1: (approximately 70 min)
1) The Odyssey
2) DWOT
3) The Odyssey

Disc 2 (approximately 73 min)
1) DWOT
2) DWOT
3) Rediscovery pt. 2
4) DWOT

Great!!!!!! Add "Thrugh The looking glass" and skip (no matter how much it hurts) one of the "DWoT" and that list will pretty much speak my opinion too!

 

[theodyssey]

oh man!!! i forgot through the looking glass!!! DAMNIT!!! ok, take off one of the dwot and put on through the looking glass.
