Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars I loved this group........2007-01-04

Loose Ends was a group that is easily likened to Incognito, The Brand New Heavies and Soul II Soul. If you like any of those UK Funk bands, you will definitely enjoy the best of what Loose Ends had to offer.

4 out of 5 stars Dont be a fool.......2006-10-22

Back in the day I use to love Loose Ends. This album has everything that a fan could want in a best of album. Its enhanced sound quality alone makes this album a must have for any fan of loose ends.

5 out of 5 stars Forget Soul II Soul, these are the ORIGINAL innovators of UK Soul.......2006-08-08

Loose Ends are the most underrated band on the planet- point blank. Those of you who think that Soul II Soul were innovators of UK Soul, think again- they popularised it. Loose Ends opened the door for them and unfortunately are seldom given the respect for it. Carl McIntosh paved the way for the likes of Jazzie B in terms of production, producing a sound that would become distinctive. The other members, Jane Eugene and Steve Nichol would be the final jigsaw of the piece. This greatest hits gives an honest and ideal overview of their career. From the classic 'Hangin' On A String (Contemplating)' to the brilliant 'Stay A Little While, Child' to the simple but enjoyable 'Slow Down'. From the Prince-like 'Tell Me What You Want' to the trip-hoppping 'Don't Be A Fool.' From their excellent and innovative take of the David Bowie classic 'Golden Years' to the James Brown 'Funky Drummer' breakbeat sampling 'Love's Got Me' this collection is an essential purchase for, either, anyone who is getting into this talented band or those who miss the wonderful music they gave us for 7 years.

4 out of 5 stars This Is What I'm Talking About!!!.......2006-06-16

"Loose Ends" has to be one of my favorite groups from the 1980s. Some of their songs were formulaic, but it worked thanks to good production and clever instrument arrangements. The only negative about this greatest hits CD is that "You Can't Stop The Rain" isn't on it. I would download the song and buy this CD.

3 out of 5 stars Blast from the 80's Past.......2006-03-08

I have a cassette from Loose Ends - the girl in the group had a beautiful voice if you listen to the tracks where she did lead vocal. This is another UK band, like Five Starr, that worked the U.S. music scene, but, never made it to superstar status. This band must have "disbanded" around the late 80's, early 90's, cause I never heard of them again after the early 90's - about the time "gangsta rap" started to take over the music scene.
