Better late than never

(5 out of 5 stars)
"So 10 years down the line EMI decides to put out "a best of" of the grandfathers of electro. Clocking in at a massive 78 minutes this is a dream for any die-hard Cabaret Voltaire fan. Encompassing just the 2 EMI releases "CODE" & "GROOVY LAIDBACK & NASTY" this "best of" is just that. 5 Stars for an album that contains material dating back to 1987, when CD singles were unheard of. However, the track listing on the cover does not correlate to the track listing on the disc itself, but true CABS fans should know the tracks already. My personal favourite is the thumping dance version of "Keep On (Clubbing)", its infectious beat filling the entire room. Now I can truly say that my Cabaret Voltaire CD collection is complete. I just wish they would reform."
