First, i am a big R Stevie Moore fan. I discouvered his music in youtube where lots of videos are put by autosam (just look for R Stevie Moore in youtube, you'll find all the vids).
Second, i have two cds, Nevertheless Optimistic and Contact Risk. My opinion is that get those in stread of this Cherry red collection. I think the songs chosen here are not so good (with some good exceptions, some also in those two records i told you before), but overall, this is in my honest opinion pretty lame and within more than 400 original songs recorded by this songcrafting genious, there are plenty of better songs. But good try by Cherry red, hope this is just the first from several compilations to come out now, hope so, go on Cherry Red and make better second time. Just to remember:
Cherry red comp 3 stars
contact risk and Nevertheless... 5 stars
hoe i had helped someone, long live R Stevie Moore!
