There can’t be many bands around who get to the stage where they can release their second double disc collection of b-sides and rare tracks. Opening up with gay love song The Truck Driver and His Mate, the songs here are as good, if not better, than the stuff on the bands albums. There are some serious dance tunes in Disco Potential, The Boy Who Couldn’t Keep His Clothes On and Nightlife. There also a curious version of In Private, a song the band wrote for Dusty Springfield, expect on this version Elton John is featured. This collection is not just for the diehard fans. – Graeme Watson
