CD Reviews

Low-brow of the supposed "greatest hits"
Jon Rydin | Chicago, IL United States | 07/23/2001
(2 out of 5 stars)

"From the Arista "what were they thinking?" files, here comes a collection that was only released to make an extra buck or two. The lone track that is hard to find on CD is "Bouncing" (from the "In the Name of Love" album). All the rest are on other "Greatest Hits" packages... or throwaways that most fans own anyway.If you're looking for the BEST compilation of Twins hits... try the far more superior "Love, Lies, and Other Strange Things".This CD, unfortunately, will not even please the most hardcore of Thompson Twins fans."
Interesting, but....

"One of the numerous Thompson Twins compilations floating around out there, this one is one of the only ones that plays like somebody's Thompson Twins mix tape. It's unusual to see "Day After Day" included on a greatest hits comp, especially because it really IS one of their best songs, and wasn't a single. "Emperor's Clothes" was an album track too, although the fact that it's not one of their greatest hits arouses suspicion. Ditto for "Bouncing", a track off their 1982 album "Set" (released in the US as "In The Name Of Love"). They even delve into "Close to the Bone" territory and dig up "Perfect Day", even though "Get That Love" was the single. The inclusion of some halfhearted liner notes doesn't help to make the case for this collection, and the packaging seals its doom...a xerox-machine combination of the Thompson Twins and a brick wall. Eccch."
