Title: Excellent Collection
Review: Being a Strawbs fan from long, long, long ago, it's tough to see the individual albums available only as hard-to-find overseas imports (with bonus tracks and lyric sheets, too, the bastards!). Canadians have had to content themselves with a LOUSY CD reissue of HERO & HEROINE that sounds like it was mastered from someone's beat-up-old-garage-sale copy and a single CD anthology that was hardly up to the challenge. HALCYON DAYS (U.K.) was a great anthology for fans, seeing as how it contained U.K. single versions and B-sides/rarities, but I wish I'd purchased the U.S. edition. It's a far better anthology which includes important tracks like "Hanging In The Gallery". Got a choice? Go the U.S. edition route.
