The Best of ’94–’99
The Best of '94–'99 is a double album from the British rock band Bush, released in 2005 on Trauma Records. It gathers the band's hits on the first disc, while the second captures their set at Woodstock '99, so you get the studio versions alongside a live document of the era they were playing through.
The title points to the stretch covering Sixteen Stone, Razorblade Suitcase and The Science of Things, the records that made their name in alternative rock and grunge. Songs from the later Golden State, including the singles "The People That We Love" and "Inflatable", are left off because the licensing rights weren't available. It's a handy way into the band's early catalogue, with the Woodstock disc as a welcome extra for anyone who likes to hear these songs played live.
