3.0 out of 5 stars Poor Selection, June 21, 2003

By 

algabal - See all my reviews

This review is from: Exposure (Audio CD)

There is simply too much of his latter-day work on this album to make it definitive, and the fact is the songs chosen from the later albums are also poor. We get re-recorded selections from his classic album Tubeway Army, only 1 song post 1982, pre 1994 and that song is also re-recorded (a time span in which he put out a lot of music). So basically a bunch of songs from his 3 most popular albums and a bunch of random selections from his last 3 albums. Pure is simply over-represented, 5 songs is way too much for the 'last album'. In my opinion only 4 songs from the albums would have sounded right on this compilation: Pure, Bleed, Love and Napalm, and The Angel Wars. The songs are not represented chronologically, so it can be annoying when you are listening to an absolute classic like "ME" and then soon enough are listening to some average griding 90s industrial. And what can you say when the classic "Warriors" is not even represented at all.
Skip this one, pick up Beggar's Banquets reissues of his catalog from 1978-1983 and if you want more, Metal Rhythm and Sacrifice are the only other worthy albums.

This CD is expensive, and for what? You get ONE new song "Exile" which is an instrumental that is mildly good, but is included on the CD RESONATOR. Just buy RESONATOR instead!!!

Otherwise you get some standard fare Numan songs, a stupid remix of A Prayer For The Unborn, and that's about it. If you are looking for a good Numan Greatest Hits, buy the Beggars Banquet (Purple color) Greatest Hits. Or better yet, buy the Beggars Banquet Double CD Reissues along with the last 4 CDs he's done, they are all worth it! If you buy this CD after being warned you are an id-10-t!
