3.0 out of 5 stars Strange selections, especially for a 10 song budget release, July 15, 1999

By	Benjamin Lukoff (Seattle) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is nice in that it contains "September Gurls," "Crash and Burn," "Dover Beach," and "James," all of which were left off the regular-priced Greatest Hits CD. "September Gurls" and "James" were glaring omissions and I'm glad to see somebody thought they were worth including here. But this is just a strange track listing otherwise. Just as no Bangles collection should be without "September Gurls" and "James," a Bangles collection without "Walk Like an Egyptian" and "Eternal Flame"--regardless of what you think of those songs--is plain strange. It'd be like a Kinks collection without "You Really Got Me" or a Who Best Of without "My Generation." I give it three stars because it did include those songs omitted on the Greatest Hits CD and because it led off with and took its title from "September Gurls," a great performance, but I think this is really only worth buying if you're a Bangles completist. Nothing new here. At least the Greatest Hits CD had the two songs previously unavailable on an album and the one song previously unreleased anywhere. If you're curious about the Bangles, get the Greatest Hits CD...or if you can afford it, just get the three-CD pack that has all their 80's albums.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Compilation CD, April 25, 2009

By	Michael Patrick Boyd (Waukesha, WI) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

September Gurls is Thirty-three minutes and sixteen seconds and was released on September, 01, 1995. This was the group second compilation album. Only three of the ten songs on this CD charted. Basically what you have here is a bunch of uncharted songs mostly known to Bangles fans. Even the three charted songs are not that well known. Still it gives those Bangles fans a change of pace. September Gurls gets an B+.

5.0 out of 5 stars "September Gurls" Rocks My World !!!, February 10, 2008

By	Michael C. Adams "True Review" (NY, NY.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great CD! These songs are wonderful choices and are done in that pure Bangles "love of the music" style! I wish there was more of the same type songs on here but, hey, that quibble aside I wouldn't add the "Flame" and "Egyptian" songs, as they don't fit the feel here. This is the type of music that brought them together in the first place! This September boy's got it bad for "September Gurls".
