Great Ska Music

I love Less Than Jake..they're my second favorite ska band (no one can top Sublime or Fishbone). This CD is speacial, because it contains rare LTJ tracks...if you like LTJ or are a ska lover, buy this CD. I can tell you now that this CD RULES.

My favortie songs on here are "Dopeman" and "Losing Streak". December 15, 2006

Really, Really, Really Cool Album

This CD is great for true Less Than Jake fans. It may not be the best for those who only like some of their songs, because it is mainly a compilation of covers, rare songs not put on other albums, or 7" versions of some popular songs. It's not a super polished record or anything like that is all I'm saying, but it's good. If you but it for no other reason just get it for the booklet, it has all these band member memories of the "blue and white," their old tour van, which broke down, hence the name, "Goodbye Blue and White." It's cool, you should probably get it if you want to be cool too. February 3, 2006

Good stuff.

I have to say this is one of LTJ's best. A note to the guy a couple of reiews below me: You say the tracklisting was wrong on yours. You're right and you're wrong. They had two pressings of this CD. They changed the tracklisting during the second pressing. September 1, 2005

Hello blue and white

For a collection of hard to find songs, this is a pretty good collection. Unlike B is for b-sides, where the band took album out takes, gave them some polished production, and passed them off as a sort of a whole new album, this is the sort of collection that mostly serves as an interesting view into some of the band's more raw material, as well as giving several great tracks without really flowing as a whole album. overall I'd recomend this cd to someone who has heard all of thier albums and wants something more.
On that note, there are a lot of great songs on here. especially the covers of we're not gonna take it, I think I love you, and teenager in love. The demos of evil has no boundaries, and anti-christ are very interesting because they show ltj playing thrash metal with horns(?). But probably the best song on here for me is the dopeman remix, which I actually think is better than the original losing streak version(it was my least favorite song of that album even thought it was a decent song). So on a closing note, if you want some of the band's rawest material from so-far-most creative period (Much like pezcore in a way), then this is a great buy for you

(p.s. and as far as the guy whose cd played out of order, I think you just got a messed up copy, because mine plays fine.) April 11, 2005

It's......In Between Good And Alright

So, I suppose there's no way I can tell you if I really love this cd or not. There's a good reason for it. When I pressed play on my cd player I was surprised. It played out of order because the songs were not like they were on the back of the cd case. I gave this 3 stars. Why, you may ask?? There are 2 reasons for THIS. {I wanna start with the 2'nd one first if that's okay with you}.
2. The songs are alright but you might have no idea which one it is on a portable cd player.
1. The bad thing about it is you need a computer to figure out which song is which.

I rest my case. It should be pretty understandable now why I believe it deserves JUST 3 stars. If my copy of this cd is the only one out there that I have had complications with the songs, then in that case, I have been wrongly screwed with in the packaging of the cd. Once you know what the song is, it's up to you whether you like it or not. Some songs are hard to figure out because the bandoesn'tmention the title, and some are easier. It is not the worst cd in my collection. Hands down 3 stars for me. A few songs are better than others and when I first played it, it was like song #16 was like the first song and song number #13 was a totally different song. It is messed up to me. Isn't that hard to figure out? It might not be exactly like that, but it's similar to my explanations. Purchase a copy of the cd and you have yet to see what I mean. 3 stars hand down for me. I really did not have a mind block with this review, huh?
