DEEP: Approx 40% unreleased and, of the other 60%, most (if not all) is in superior quality to what is currently available on CD. Disks are over 70 minutes each. All in all, a much better collection than GBS Volume 1. I thought that collection more or less sucked. This one is different and well worth owning.

CDG: No one will be disappointed with this.

rmd: The tracks here seem equally good or superior in sound quality to other CD releases. The totally new material on GBS2 (disc 1) stands well enough on its own and is all knock-your-socks-off quality. (Bob Stacy)

NOTE: Fan-circulated clone of the original release, to which the excerpted comments were originally directed.
