Title: Shows why it's hard to do an IG greatest hits CD
Product review: I bought this CD out of a sense of duty.Okay, really I wanted the two new songs. I own the albums with the rest of the tunes on them, with the exception of the studio version of Strange Fire. I can't argue too strenuously with the songs that were picked for this CD -- they're fine -- but they're not the ones that mean the most to me. Great songs that could have been included instead:Love's Recovery, Language or the Kiss, Welcome Me, Love Will Come to You, and The Wood Song.But anyway. For the most part, the songs picked for this CD show the essence of the IG sound, with a nod to the way in which it has evolved over the years. Buy it if you need an introduction to the girls. But do yourself a favor and don't stop with this CD.Get Swamp Ophelia for a sense of the musical complexity they're capable of, get their self-titled CD for a sense of their folk roots, and move on from there.
