CD Reviews

Great Music, Record Company Ripping Of Artist

J. Johns | Portland, OR | 02/22/2006

(1 out of 5 stars)

"Like the last reviewer, I agree this album has great music and is worthy of listening. But what isn't obvious is what is behind the release of this music. A few years ago the record label abruptly cancelled Cracker's recording contract. Now that same record company that turned it's back on this great band is trying to cash in on Cracker's loyal following. In great Cracker fashion, the band released it's own Greatest Hits album the same day. It's called Cracker Greatest Hits Redux and the proceeds of this album don't go in the pockets of the greedy recording company. If you like Cracker and want a compilation, buy Garage d'Or or Greatest Hits Redux."

Corporate ploy

"Don't get me wrong... the music on this CD is certainly great stuff. However, it's Cracker's old label trying to cash in on old songs, and nothing more. Personally, I'd just buy all the albums to get these songs, because there are great songs otherwise- but if you are looking for a greatest hits album, go with Cracker - Greatest Hits Redux, also available from Amazon.com, and it comes with a better variety, live variations of their songs, and the great "Ain't Gonna Suck Itself" which is directed at the very corporate scum that put this album here out."

5 star music, 0 star corporate greed

"I third that emotion. Also, it's a strange collection, neither focusing explicitly on "hits" and singles, nor on the concert staples, just a mish mash. All great excellent songs, but no need for this cd."
