Negative Positive
Title: Excellent summation of a fine band
Review: OK, if you get past that Travis never topped Radiohead (as they were predicted to at one point in 2000/2001) and recently were usurped by the new darlings of "sensitive rock", Coldplay, they are still quite an enjoyable band and well, well worth the time and effort. SINGLES includes just that - all 17 of their UK singles since 1997, some of which have become some of our most important modern songs. Included here are "Coming Around", a single-only release from 2000 and the new "Walking In The Sun". "The Distance", the 18th track, and the only non-single track here, is written by Dougie Payne, Travis' bassist, while the rest of the lot comes from lead singer Fran Healy's pen. This is a GREAT intro to the band and a fine addition to anyone's collection, provided they like quality music with some sensitivity and passion.
