CD Reviews

Certainly not the 'essential' SLF album

skak1 | 03/10/2002

(2 out of 5 stars)

"This album advertises itself as the 'essential' SLF album. This is definitely not the case and I speak as one of the band's biggest fans. For one thing it features none of the band's hits (it makes a point of not including any singles). For another only about half the songs here would make any SLF fan's selection of the best album tracks. What is 'Breakout' doing on here? Why have they included songs from the dreadful 'Tinderbox' album? Why so many from 'Now then'? In many cases the album tracks selected are actually the worst on their respective albums (with the exception of the excellent choices from 'Hope Street'). If this is the 'essential' SLF album how come only 4 of these songs ever make it into their live shows? This is not a good introduction to one of the best ever bands. On the plus side it includes good liner notes."
