The Definitive Big Country
J. Bongiorno | Valley Stream, NY United States | 12/20/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This brilliant compilation, featuring not only singles and "hits," provides an excellent overview of the most underrated band in rock history. Longtime fans will be pleased by the hard-to-find Skids material (which may not be as appealing to some who don't enjoy Punk), but the meat of this two-CD set is Big Country, and it's the only 'Best of' set to include material from the band's final album 'Driving to Damascus' (including the less available radio remix of Fragile Thing) as well as Stuart Adamson's The Raphaels solo project. Fantastic set with gorgeous, crystal clear sound, and fun bonus material that includes photos, short live footage and more!"
