Great Album But............2005-07-20

Of the greatest hits albums by 'The Outfield' I think you're better off buying "Big Innings" instead of this album. There are more tracks on "Big Innings", however it is missing "Reach Out" and "No Surrender" which appear on this album. I first found 'The Outfield' by playing Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, where "Your Love" appears on one of the games' radio stations. I immediatly bought "Big Innings" (see my review) and it was so good I have now bought all the studio albums (seven so far) by 'The Outfield'. "Play Deep" is the best, only just, as they all make for great listening.

First Grand Slam Collection.......2000-09-16

This is the first of three greatest hits packages, and full of home run after home run! Although it is missing some of the lesser known gems that were later included on Big Innings each one of the songs on this album keep your toes tapping. It contains such winners as All The Love In The World, Since You've Been Gone, Everytime You Cry, as well as their signature tune Your Love. If you want just a taste of what this band can do, buy this CD. If you're a fan of this awesome group and don't have this disk, get it!

Consistent and spirited songs........2000-09-14

The Outfield is a good band. I've had Playing the Field in my collection for several years. It contains a nice group of straight-ahead pop rock songs. I enjoy listening to it from time to time. All ten of the tracks on Playing the Field are melodic, tight, and listenable. Tony Lewis is a pretty cool singer, and his voice is very recognizable and unique. The Outfield's musicianship and songwriting skills are solid. Some of the tracks that I like are "Since You've Been Gone" and "Voices of Babylon." "Since You've Been Gone" has a very catchy chorus, and "Voices of Babylon" is very atmospheric. Keyboards are only used sparingly on some of the songs. It's too bad that this hits package doesn't have a biography of the band in the liner notes--that would have been cool and informative. Playing the Field is good and worth a listen.
