CD Reviews

Fair overview of Bros music
DIMITRI B BOGACHEV | Atlanta, GA | 10/03/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is a good buy for those who do not have original Bros albums from the late 80s. Their debut album Push (which scored many hits on the charts in 87-88 and is considered their most successful work) is presented almost in its entirety except Shocked and Love To Hate You, and there are songs from the other two albums. You really do not need more unless you're a die-hard fan and want to search for out-of-print original recordings. The insert looks cheap, with T Shirts and ringtones advertised, but music is what matters. Strangely enough, no visual credit is given to Craig Logan who split from the trio (yes, Push was recorded by a trio, though you only see photos of Goss brothers) after the first record. In any case, this CD is a good addition to any 80's music fan out there - nothing sensational, just plain quality Brit pop, if that is your cup of tea."

"In 1988, while the UK was swept away by Bananarama, Kylie Minogue, and Rick Astley, a trio-turned-duo named Bros crashed into the scene with their shamelessly fluffy yet irresistibly blue-eyed dance pop. Thanks to their strikingly chisled looks and Michael Jacksonesque vocals, Bros were newly-crowned teen heartthrobs that dominated the charts all over the world. Except, of course, America. But "Best of Bros," the first-ever hits collection, compiles all their UK singles from their first three albums. While these guys will never win any awards for their silly lyrics, their songs, though derivative, had solid melodies and were catchy as hell. "When Will I Be Famous," their Number One "I Owe You Nothing," and "Too Much" are all here in their remastered glory and will instantly transport you back to your teenage years. (And, as another reviewer mentioned, "Best Of" contains all but two songs from their 1988 "Push" debut) The booklet doesn't have detailed liner notes, and while it does have pictures of the Goss Twins, departed member Craig Logan is nowhere to be seen. None of the Bros albums are in print in the United States, but if you want to relive the innocence of 1988 again, then you can indulge in this guilty pleasure of a disc."
