Another band that reached the ten year anniversary in 1991 was Motley Crue, and to celebrate they produced this best-of album.
Containing most of their greatest hits, a few of them remixed, and a couple of new tracks, this album is a pretty good compilation of their first ten years on the music scene. The fact that they haven't been able to produce anything to match it since is perhaps a little disconcerting.
Once again, however, I must have my objection noted on some of the track choices. Seriously – where is Too Young To Fall In Love? One of their greatest tracks, and it isn't here? Why couldn't the rather horrible version of the Sex Pistol's Anarchy In The U.K. have been left off? It would have improved this release a lot! Did the band choose these tracks, or the record company? That is just one of the disappointments. The live version of Kickstart My Heart? Why not just the studio version?
Despite that, this is a good release. Someone who wanted to know what Motley Crue are about could start here and be satisfied. But come on guys – get this best-of scenario RIGHT!! :)
Rating : At least they didn't CALL it a best-of! 4.5/5.
