125. Twisted Sister / Big Hits And Nasty Cuts : The Best Of Twisted Sister. 1992. 4/5.

Twisted Sister are still considered in many circles as a one-hit wonder. Indeed, ask many pundits what they think of Twisted Sister's back catalogue, and they will swear blind that they released only one album.

As good as Stay Hungry was, and is, this album gives the novice TS fan a broader range of their hits, and would no doubt open a few eyes.
There is some great stuff on here. In fact, the mix of studio and live tracks gives the listener a terrific overview of the band in both scenarios.
In many ways, it is a shame that they didn't make more of their initial fame. But here for everyone is a chance to relive the best that was the freak of Twisted Sister.

Rating : Worthy of a listen or two. 4/5.
