WASP's First Blood Last Cuts serves as a good single disc best of. If you want a good intro to the band, want to have their big "hits" collected, or get the hard-to-find single "Animal" without paying a lot, this is the CD to get. The CD, like the band, starts out very strong and kind of fades as it gets older. But I like WASP's catchy 80s metal songs, Chris Holmes underrated and excellent guitar playing, and Blackie's potent vocals and captivating sense of style for this genre. If you're into 80s metal and don't have any WASP, this CD is boarderline "must have." I'd say half of it is must have, but for the few bucks it costs to buy used, very worth it. My favorite tracks include: Animal (the first WASP song I ever heard... and on FM radio(!), and still their best), I Wanna be Somebody (my favorite Holmes guitar solo and 2nd favorite all time WASP song), Blind In Texas (very funny and very rocking- classic Blackie), Wild Child (heaviest WASP rocker), I Don't Need No Doctor. I also like their cover of The Who's "The Real Me."
this item came in a timely manner and was a nice edition to my other wasp cd's i already had.
