CD Reviews

Better than anticipated

C. J. Reilly | london, uk | 01/05/2001

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I approached this collection expecting to be underwhelmed and was actually pleasantly surprised. There are certainly a few Twins 'best of' CD's around and this CD has all the Twins classics that you would expect; Lies, Hold me now, Doctor Doctor et al. However, this Australian compilation also includes the track 'Perfect Game' from ther early days and a surprising number of remixed versions that I had not heard before. The remixes of Lies, Love on your side, Hold me now, Doctor Doctor, King for a day and Get that love were all very welcome new mixes to my ears. Also of note is the classic U.S remix of Lay your hands on me. The '88 remix of In the name of love is the same as that on the Greatest mixes release. All in all this 74 min compilation gives you a good dose of the Twins if you're new to them or some nice remixes for a fan. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have"

THE BEST--SO FAR!

"I GOT IT BECAUSE I LIKE THE REMIX OF "LIES". THE OTHER SONGS ARE JUST A BONUS!

EXPERIENCE HAS TAUGHT ME THAT SOME VERSIONS THAT WE HAVE FANCIED ON VINYL BECOME QUITE "ORDINARY" WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE ON CD.

I THINK WE SHOULD SOMETIMES JUST ENJOY WHATEVER'S AVAILABLE ---INSTEAD OF IMAGINING THE GLORY OF THE PAST!

NEVERTHELESS, I DO ENJOY AND BENEFIT FROM OTHERS' VIEWS AND COMMENTS."
