A SUPERLATIVE COLLECTION - THE TOOTH`S FINEST!

(5 out of 5 stars)
"Contrary to some of the self-righteous comments made here by people who readily admit to neither having seen nor heard this Spooky Tooth set (!), this is a superlative compilation and has well been worth the decades-long wait.
Spooky Tooth as a band were definitely one of a kind and one of very few that come to mind to feature a twin lead vocal attack (Mike Harrison/Gary Wright). Add to this the fact that, with Mountain, Vanilla Fudge and Black Sabbath, Spooky Tooth were most distinguished members of the heavy rock pantheon of their time.
The track selection is very well balanced between all the band`s official releases, with a somewhat larger selection made from their first two (and best) albums. Contrary, again, to other comments, there is nothing wrong with dropping two of eight tracks from an album when compiling a set, even if the album in question is "Spooky Two". A few rare non-album singles ("The Weight", "Weird") and unreleased tracks were thrown in for good measure and added value.
My only personal quibble is with the exclusion of the classic "That Was Only Yesterday", but then again, another listener will find "The Mirror" to be over-represented - a criticism I would have to disagree with, as the Tooth`s final effort was a very fine one indeed - and unfairly underrated by many a fan at the time (yours truly included!).
In all, a very fine Spooky Tooth compilation indeed and well worthy of an earful if early 70s heavy rock riffage with thundering organ and dual lead vocals is your idea of rock`n`roll bliss!
