2.0 out of 5 stars
Low-brow of the supposed "greatest hits",
By Jon Rydin "~Zee MaZteR of Pop Culture~" (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Arista Heritage (Audio CD)
From the Arista "what were they thinking?" files, here comes a collection that was only released to make an extra buck or two. The lone track that is hard to find on CD is "Bouncing" (from the "In the Name of Love" album). All the rest are on other "Greatest Hits" packages... or throwaways that most fans own anyway.If you're looking for the BEST compilation of Twins hits... try the far more superior "Love, Lies, and Other Strange Things". This CD, unfortunately, will not even please the most hardcore of Thompson Twins fans.

Interesting, but....,
By VertigoXpress (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Arista Heritage (Audio CD)
One of the numerous Thompson Twins compilations floating around out there, this one is one of the only ones that plays like somebody's Thompson Twins mix tape. It's unusual to see "Day After Day" included on a greatest hits comp, especially because it really IS one of their best songs, and wasn't a single. "Emperor's Clothes" was an album track too, although the fact that it's not one of their greatest hits arouses suspicion. Ditto for "Bouncing", a track off their 1982 album "Set" (released in the US as "In The Name Of Love"). They even delve into "Close to the Bone" territory and dig up "Perfect Day", even though "Get That Love" was the single. The inclusion of some halfhearted liner notes doesn't help to make the case for this collection, and the packaging seals its doom...a xerox-machine combination of the Thompson Twins and a brick wall. Eccch.

Thought they were good!,
By RJ "rjmusic" (rjmusic) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Arista Heritage Series: Thompson Twins (MP3 Download)
Well, initially I wasn't too familiar with the thompson twins music! I never realized that they were the group that sang Hold Me Now. I always thought it was Gensis or Duran Duran. Anyways, I found most of there singles to be the perfect 80's pop sound. Which is something that I love. They def. reminded me of The Cars! I really love that great 80's synth pop/rock sound. I thought some of the stand out tracks were. Were Bouncing,King for A day, and Perfect Day. I really think that the Thompson twins are really underrated as far as 80's music goes. This is def. a great pop group to check out.
