CD Reviews

A very worthwhile collection

David Ljunggren | Ottawa, Ontario Canada | 02/18/2000

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I'm not usually too fond of compilations but this is an exception. Plenty of good tunes, a couple of oversweet shockers, but well worth the effort"

Seamless Sounding Track Selections From a Great Band!

Frederick Baptist | Singapore | 09/11/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The tracks selections are identical to the other earlier "Diary" releases such as the Dutch Disky and the English Pickwick ones although the sound quality could probably do with some remastering, the overall sound quality isn't bad.

This compilation album is great because the tracks all seem to run together so well that it sounds like a cohesive normal album and not like a usual jumbled up and disjointed best of compilation.

The track selections represent the best work this highly underrated band has done and is a good choice if you are looking for a best of set of this band at least until they decide to remaster this.

I for one would like to hear what some modern sound-cleaning technology would do for this cd. One of my favourite all-time albums and definitely a desert-island disc. Highly recommended."
