Besides a few tunes on compilations, I don't have any Fifth Dimension music, so this is a no-brainer, as they say, for me.
Or you can get the Ultimate collection with 21 tracks for about $4 shipped from GoHastings: http://www.gohastings.com/product/POPMUSIC/The-Ultimate-5th-Dimension/sku/289298825 Mastered by Bob Irwin and Kip Smith (probably same mastering as the 1997 2CD best of). Unless you're a completist looking for those rare mixes, this is a more substantial collection with decent sound.
What stands out for me is the shorter version of Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine In (The Flesh Failures). I don't think I have any other cd that has this version, which is about one minute longer than the version that's been used on every other cd I have. Interestingly the track list indicates that Never My Love is the single edit and yet it's actually a bit longer than the version I have ripped from their 2-cd comp mastered by Bob Irwin which, I think, is the same version that's been on other cds. I'm not sure how the single edit differs from the other version. All the other tracks have the same run times as on the 2-cd comp, though there are two tracks on Playlist that are missing there.
The Animals LP is clear vinyl and sound quite good. Just got mine yesterday. Great deal @ $14 shipped
My copy from amazon came in today, will give it spin later in the week, in the mean time, aoxomoxoa thinks it sounds quite good, that's good enough for me.

Thanks for that. My local store is out of this at the moment, so I was waiting anyway. I might as well save a few dollars and spend 'em at my local.
