Title: Best of the post-Godley-and-Creme era
Review: 10cc's first album without two of its original members, Kevin Godley and Lol Creme, is a perfectly agreeable effort, if a bit straightforward for longtime fans. "The Things We Do For Love" is a memorable single, and the epic "Feel The Benefit" recalls the band's previous inclination to totally change styles in the middle of a song. But beyond that, most of the songs are straightforward late 70's pop. There are novelty songs here, like "Modern Man Blues", but nothing so bent and memorable as "Rubber Bullets" (from the self-titled first album). So, if this is your first 10cc CD, you'll probably find their earlier ones more eccentric, while if you start with the early stuff, the middle of this disc may drag.IMHO, the really neccessary 10cc CD's are this one, "10cc", and "The Original Soundtrack".
