After eight recordings and 18 years on the road, it's high time the vocal group Anúna released a 'Best Of' compilation. At 21 tracks, however, the CD is far too long, and the fact that most of these run to less than three minutes (in two cases less than two minutes) gives it a bitty, fragmented feel.
