Most Curve fans will have most of the first disc on the original releases.Nothing new to report there,just some good old Curve classics(Ten Little Girls is as good today as it was way back in 91).And a song or two that a casual fan may not of heard before(Pink Girl With the Blues).
The second disc is where it gets really good.Today Is Not The Day is just incredible.I Feel Love is what a dance song from under the ocean would sound like.What a Waste with Ian Dury explains why Curve doesn't do more work with other artists.I don't think anyone can match Toni's voice.And if you have never heard On The Wheel Before ,you are missing out on one of the greatest songs I have ever heard.
The best thing about Curve and this compilation is that the early songs sound as fresh and original as the newer stuff.This CD will age well in your collection and you will never be embarrassed to share it with your friends,today,next month or next decade.
I only rate this CD a 4 because the price at the time I purchased it was a bit high.I still think it was worth it.
Buy a Curve album or two and share them with your friends.

Even if you ARE a die-hard Curve fanatic, there is plenty here for you. All the tracks have been newly mastered and sound better than ever before. The presence of all three tracks from the super-rare German-only "Superblaster" single (a CD that fetches three-figure sums on Ebay!) are worth the money alone. And new track "In Disguise" is utterly sublime and proves that Curve are still pushing frontiers and are not the one-dimensional has-beens that the moronic UK press mostly continues to brand them.
To newcomers (or old fans who thought Curve had dropped off the radar in 1994), if you're unsure whether to purchase this or not then do yourself a favour and hunt down a cheap copy of the incredible "Gift" from 2001 (that you lucky US peeps got months before us in the UK!). Then come back and re-apply here. You will not regret it.
BEWARE: only the most naive listener will be fooled into purchasing this double disc set. Read more
