's
is not a collection of
's original hits. As explained in small type on the back cover, this collection "contains new recordings of
's greatest hits, recorded April 1997," so it's not really a good substitution for
's regrettably out of print 18-track 1995 collection
, although most of these 12 songs were on that collection of 1975-1986 material. These aren't bad recordings by any means. They're a little too laid-back, perhaps, and the arrangements are a little limp, but
is in good voice and they're entirely pleasant. Although they're nice to hear, they're not the kind of recordings you'd seek out unless you were a hardcore fan who might like to have these mellow re-recordings as part of your collection. But anybody who thinks this is indeed a replacement for the previous
collection should stay away. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
