2 out of 5 stars Why Bother?.......2004-08-20

In June 1997 "The Very Best of 10cc" is released, covering 15 songs from their early UK hits "Donna" and "Rubber Bullets" to Godley and Creme's last hit "Cry," featured on "Miami Vice." Between this CD and "The Very Best of" there is only one song not included in the latter CD, and this CD has a live version of "Wall Street Shuffle." The question is, considering that there is little difference in the price of the two CDs, why was this CD ever released?

The music here is all good, and my rating does not reflect the selections, but rather the need to even have this CD in the first place. Pass this by and get the more comprehensive collection. You will find you enjoy the bigger collection more.

1 out of 5 stars This one's no good, but there's a better choice!.......1999-06-18

I absolutely agree with the guy from Michigan, but if you want the B-sides, get Things We Do For Love, a cheap but rich in B-sides compilation (available from Amazon). It doesn't have all the B-sides, but what it has is great. And if you still can find the British compilation 100cc on vinyl, the B-side is all unknown tracks.

1 out of 5 stars "How Dare You" Polygram!.......1998-11-19

What a disappointment! Don't get me wrong, the tunes on this CD are good, but it's just a rehash of past "Best Of" compilations. 10cc have released SO MANY classic 45 RPM B-sides in their career that have never been available on an album, but do we get any of them here from Polygram?? NO! What 10cc fans need is a good "Complete B-Sides" compilation. Songs like "Good News", "Channel Swimmer", "I'm So Laid Back I'm Laid Out", "Waterfall", "4% Of Something", their 1976 backing track for a Revlon TV commercial, and a good dozen others. These are all classic 10cc tunes... virtually unheard by the public, and for that matter, most of their fans! What a shame. If you want the best of 10cc, get the "1st LP/Sheet Music" 2-On-1 CD, "Original Soundtrack", and "How Dare You". And while you're at it Polygram, when will you issue the excellent Godley & Creme "Consequences" album on CD?? Sheesh!!
