Synopsis

Album Description

Standard two-disc pressing. This 39-track pressing features all of their A-Sides and best of their B-Sides as selected by the band. 'A Rough Outline' is a collection of singles and B-sides from one of Britpop's finest bands, The Bluetones. Combining the baggy beats of The Stone Roses with the clued-up jangle pop of The Smiths, the band enjoyed great success in the mid-to-late 90's with a string of memorable singles, all of which are included here along with the best of their B-sides. Includes the singles 'Slight Return' and 'Marblehead Johnson'. 39 tracks in all. Universal. 2006.

CD Reviews

Two good reasons... plus 58 others

nicjaytee | London | 05/07/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Hidden in this vast compilation of Bluetones tracks is an undiscovered and hard to find "gem"... "Nae Hair On't"... a beautifully gentle, incredibly atmospheric acoustic/electric guitar workout that will, if you haven't heard it (as you probably haven't) take your breath away. Five stars on its own plus, for the price, you get no less than 60 tracks including all the hits and their equally atmospheric interpretation of a superb "lost" 60s classic, the Left Banke's "Pretty Ballerina". Two good reasons - plus 58 others - to take the plunge."
