(5 out of 5 stars)
"These songs are from Tavares'first and second albums and highlight their excellent harmonising and vocal ability.None of the later disco oriented stuff which diluted their sound is here.This is all pure R&B/SOUL.'Strangers in dark corners' and 'check it out' are moving soulful ballads and 'Thats the sound that lonely makes' is midtempo heaven.'Hardcore Poetry' is excellent and showcases the vocal range and quality of these singers.This collection is a must.The follow up album 'IN THE CITY' needs to to be released on cd as it is even better stuff."
