This disc has all of the essential Simple Minds classics. Since Simple Minds last CD (New Gold Gream (81-82-83-84)) on Virgin Records back in 1982, I have felt a massive void in my life. Self-described as Alternative with lots of words, Simple Minds comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. IT makes me wanna dance!
Colours Fly and Catherine Wheel - A strong beat. Promised You A Miracle is perfect. Big Sleep is absolutely incredible. Somebody Up There Likes You is almost impossible to review. What sets New Gold Dream (81-82-83-84) apart is Simple Minds’s innovative and organic way of creating atmospheres. Glittering Prize is the marvelous blend of moody yet optimistic tunes. Hunter and The Hunted is just simply stunning. I think King Is White and In The Crowd is the best song Simple Minds has ever done.
