The Ultimate Coasters

by The Coasters

Overview

A well-done single-disc anthology, The Ultimate Coasters was long the best collection available on one package. It doesn't provide the overview available on the Rhino two-disc set, but it's certainly a great one to get for someone who only wants the hits and doesn't want to pay too much for them. ~ Ron Wynn
