Sleeve: Band stands on hill behind cascading waterfall on the front, with prophetic-type musing on the back.
Sleevenotes: None, simply pictures and track listings. Given they've had six years to come up with this, that's disappointing.
Content: All the singles from three albums are here, but tracks are jumbled rather than chronological.
High point: Swooping, beautiful sound of The Drugs Don't Work
Low point: None. A collection of classics showing why this Wigan band was one of the 90s' best
Glaring omissions? None.
Anything new? Two previously unreleased tracks from Urban Hymns sessions, This Could Be My Moment and Monte Carlo
Justified or feeble excuse for release? It's about time a Verve collection was in the shops.
Where might this end up at Christmas? In my stocking!
