Slight improvement (and slightly different track listing)

"The US Under the Milky Way compilation focused on the obvious choices. This best of includes a couple of b sides and an unusual selection of album tracks. The hits are here of course but so are the critical album tracks.Complaints, I have a few. A box set is long over due. There isn't as much from Heyday as I would have liked or Remote Luxury. Still, overall this is a fine collection. Despite Kilbey's recent bust for heroin, I still have considerable respect for him and the band. Hopefully he will find his way again. They've always gone their own way (even when that meant producing less than stellar albums) regardless of the hit making machinery that surrounds the music biz.Personal stand out track for me is Feel from the underrated Priest=Aura album and Metropolis from the terrific Gold Afternoon Fix album."
