 Ugh !!! Yet ANOTHER hits package. December 14, 2008
Reed Pitkunigis (New Jersey, USA)
I think we can all live without yet ANOTHER Dave Edmunds hits package. While the songs are great and we all love Dave, do we really need hits package. How about putting out some music we have not heard before. No more live hits either, we have enough of those too.

I wanted this as soon as I saw it advertised on the TV, it is good to listen to and it is worth buying but as usual the best tracks are played on the TV advert, I enjoy the colaboration with Stray Cats and I have played the album more than once but I can't get too enthusiastic about it, overall it's ok.
 Great compilation by a genuine all time great artist October 13, 2008

This has to be the definitive collection of Dave Edmunds songs available. All of his hits are present (although some are not the original single recordings) plus loads of great album tracks.
Only four stars though for two reasons. Firstly, two of the tracks (I Knew the Bride and Sabre Dance) are listed as "take 2" which means that you don't get the actual version released on single. They are almost identical but for those of us who relish his music, the difference is noticeable and annoying. For example, on I Knew The Bride, the second chorus has changed and the instrumental is slightly different.
The second reason for deducting a star is the complete omission of one of his best songs, Deborah. Although not a hit, it was the lead single from his album Tracks On Wax 4 and is one of my favourite singles. I'll have to dig out those old tracks and add them when I put this on my iPod.
But overall, if you can live with those small issues (you may not be as fussy as me), what you do get is fantastic music from a fantastic artist.

Overall, an excellent selection of Dave Edmund's "Greatest Hits".
I would have given it 5 stars only for the recording quality of tracks 7 and 8....I realise they were like that originally (I remember the 45s!), but it spoils the rest of the album unless you skip them (which I do!).
Otherwise a welcome addition to my collection.

I was lucky enough to see Dave & his band 28 years ago ! (I know, I know, enough already!). I still remember it as a great night out. Every track on this album is a gem. When I hear this stuff I just can't smile wide enough. This is pure rock 'n' roll. I promise you will play this again & again. Thank you Dave Edmunds & friends.
