Her Greatest Hits is a double-disc collection that contains highlights from Evelyn Glennie's recordings for BMG Classics. Not only are her original compositions and interpretations of contemporary classical numbers featured, but so are her versions of pop songs, as well as 'Osygen' and 'My Spine,' her two collaborations with Bjork . The result is an excellent summation of Glennie's career and startling technique. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
