If you're going to buy just one, I'd choose Warp10+1 Influences (Warp), out
last year through Matador in the states. Available everywhere, widest
variety, best tracks, rawest sound, all the way from Mr. Fingers to 808
State (caveat: no UR). Get a CDNow coupon and it'd probably be $10 or less
for a 2-CD comp...
Here're the others I'd pick up next:
Psyche/BFC: Elements 1989-1990 (Planet E)
Red Planet: A Red Planet Compilation (Red Planet)
Kevin Saunderson: Faces & Phases (Planet E)
Model 500: Classics (R&S)
There are reviews/tracklistings/etc. for all of the above at
http://allmusic.com/.
Enjoy!
.John.
