5.0 out of 5 stars my chime in, March 4, 2000

By	TruConsumer (Springfield, MA USA) - See all my reviews

I just wanted to add, that, even with being a Camouflage completist, this compilation is useful to the average fan, in that, it contains many SINGLE mixes of the songs, different to the album versions. And the packaging and artwork is quite nice too. Woulda been nice to have a new track featured on here, but, all the important songs are here. I think every Camouflage fan has their favorites though, so if your fave is missing, dont feel alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, July 29, 2002

By	Greg Allup (Torrance, California United States) - See all my reviews

A wonderful compilation of this group's work. Listening to this CD is a lot like listening to a greatest hits package by Depeche Mode. Any fan of Depeche Mode can obviously hear the same style of music in Camouflage. All of the band's greatest songs are here though it is not the same as listening to the original albums in which are far better. Discard the track Jealousy in which Camouflage sems to have made the same mistake as Depeche Mode in Songs of Faith and Devotion by utilizing guitars. It didn't work for Depeche Mode, it's not going to work for Camouflage. The other track to stay away from is Waiting. That track is a big [loss] and does not belong on this compilation of best work by Camouflage. Other than that, this CD is pleasing to the ear.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great, But Rather Incomplete, December 14, 1999

By	Denmark Jensen (Carson City, NV USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Here is a collection of most of Camouflage's best tracks, but with a couple of obvious ommisions. Where are "That Smiling Face" and "Anyone"? Also, a few of the tracks here hardly seem to qualify as their best("A Picture of Life", "Strangers Thoughts", "I Once Had A Dream"). The remix of "Love Is A Shield", however, is quite good.
