CD ReviewsGreat music, but what does "complete" mean??? Mikey Scars | Maryland | 11/02/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "I'm not a Sham 69 expert. Until I bought this a few weeks ago I'd only heard "Hurry Up, Harry", "If the Kids Are United", and my favorite, "Borstal Breakout". Those are all good songs and 70's Brit-punk is my favorite music, so I picked this up.
Anyway, I'm glad I got this. The music's great, especially the first disc (minus the 1988 songs at the end). My only question is, what do they mean by calling this "the complete collection"? The third and last CD is all live tracks, many of which I don't recall hearing on the first two CD's. A few are covers, I do realize, but most of the 3rd disc songs say they were written BY Sham 69. So, I'm thinking they were published as studio versions before they were recorded from live shows. So, where ARE those studio recordings? Is this really a "complete collection". I don't think so, but hey, it's still a good buy." |
