I dont think ive ever known you to post that album here. I know its less tracks etc, but i always go for 'Three Into One' whenever i want a Foxxvox mix. To me, its the classic compilation. 'The Island Years' is great though and i would put 'Slow Motion' as third. [/b]It's probably known here (or maybe not) that I'm not much of a fan of the pre-SOR material. I got
The Island Years some time ago but never paid it much attention.
I tried and failed to get into
Ultravox! and
Ha! Ha! Ha! earlier this year.
But, one or two tracks aside, I really enjoyed
The Island Years on my journey to work this morning. This compilation allows this particular set of songs to shine, and is more accessible. It's probably all I need - bringing together the most listenable bits, to my ears at least. Plus in the process I discovered "Cross Fade"
