Decent overview of the Reprise/Caribou years. Fills in all the holes, and even has some surprises. Sea Cruise can be dealt with under pressure.

The only 70's version of "Surf's Up" without the background noise at the end.
Even the 1st "remastered" Caribou CD had the background stuff. I wrote Caribou
a nasty note and complained about the CD price and took it back (what an idiot!).

Some of the songs selected are far from ' best of'. Pity, because some of the others are amongst the best in the business.

At the time, it introduced me to a lot of stuff I was unfamiliar with- Beautiful Day is great. Sea Cruise- needs a mess of help to stand alone.

A decent overview, but so many gems are not included. A remastered and expanded (to fill up both discs un-like the LP era time limit) could make a rerelease a great buy

I just scored a UK copy on CD for only $4 (if you can believe that!). I can confirm AGD's notes (as if I needed to) for the US collectors -- the single versions of the key songs are on the UK CD, as opposed to the US CD which used the album versions.
AGD, what label was this? I can't see it on the CD label clearly. Was it another graphic for Caribou? And is it just me or was this a cheap attempt to get the original notes into the book? Still nice to have this version around. Now I just need the UK version of Summer In Paradise (though I won't be looking all THAT hard....).

Look a bit hard, it's a lot better than the American version. |

That's not saying much. The only reason I would care is I love Roger McGuinn.

I just have to say -- River Song is a work of genius. Can't live without it, I think.

Good comp on vinyl that had the 45 mixes. Criminally short on Dennis' stuff. Not one comp gives him enough space.

I agree. He is without doubt the most under-rated member of the band. I like this collection (I own the UK version on CD) because it has the different mix of Come Go With Me etc.. as well as the only place that I own River Song on Cd (though I do have POB on vinyl) Its A Beautiful Day is fantastic aswell and Sea Cruise isnt great but still nice to have. |

I mean when I read an interview with Brad Elliot when they did the Brother Years best of I wanted to hit him when he said Dennis stuff wasn't commerical enough to include. Without his stuff the so called Brother Years would not have been half as interesting.

I've got the vinyl too. It's a well done summation of the 70's period with a good balance of singles, album cuts and rarities.
