CD Reviews

Simple taste of Heaven!
Paul HItch | 12/09/1998
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD flows so well!! This is one of those CDs you put on and kick back with the one that you love. My favorite track is "Moneys Too Tight (to mention). I also love "Holding Back the years" and "No Direction". A true must have. Simply great!!"
You'll miss it if it's lost!

"I happened upon this album when my sister loaned it to me for a cross country drive. Within 3000 miles it was worn out. One of the most exciting blends of music from one band I've ever come across. You'll love it!"
Simply a great album.

"This is what I think of as a great album from an underrated band. Maybe not their best, but well worth a listen. Included is the wonderful and moving "Holding Back The Years", one of their best songs ever, and probably most popular. "Money's Too Tight (to mention)" is another well known song, and rather upbeat. I also really enjoy the cover of "Heaven", as it's one of my favorite Talking Heads songs. The rest holds up well, and is still a good listen after all this time. If you're looking for more than the "Greatest Hits", give it a try."
