The billing of this 2009 two-fer suggests that Greatest and Latest contains Bill Wyman's first (i.e., "Greatest") and last (i.e., "Latest") albums, when it just pairs two albums -- Just for a Thrill and Rhythm Kings Live -- originally released on Fuel 2000 in 2005. There are no bonus tracks, and therefore not much to entice the hardcore fans who already own these two enjoyable latter-day sessions, but anybody in the market to get these two albums will find this an easy, affordable way to get them both. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
