Customer Reviews Ultimate Collection Forget about lace, this band is all leather and steel. How many "all-girl" rock bands can really rock as hard as their male counterparts, especially when those counterparts include bands like Motorhead, Diamond Head, and Saxon? Only one - Girlschool. They're one of the more important, yet somehow still overlooked bands from the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) scene, and have been delivering hard-hitting, kick in the teeth, rock & roll since the early 80's. Castle's 1995 compilation titled simply "The Collection" is about as comprehensive an overview of Girlschool's career as you are likely to find. It features a whopping 47 tracks collected on 2 discs, and covers the band's entire output. In addition to songs from various Girlschool studio albums, the Collection includes b-sides, live tracks, covers (of ZZ Top, the Sweet, and T-Rex among others), and collaborations such as the St. Valentine's Day Massacre material the band recorded with Motorhead. The material has been digitally remastered, so it sounds better than ever. You also get a nice booklet with all sorts of band info and photos. Castle is the best in the business when it comes to high quality NWOBHM collections, and they definitely got this one right. If you're new to Girlschool, the Collection is the perfect way to get acquainted with this classic hard rock band. . A true rock band - This is one of the few female bands that can stand comparison to any band. Too often when talking about girl bands - its 'A good rock band, for a bunch girls'. Awesome CD I first got their Hit and Run and Screaming Blue Murder albums when they first came out and am still listening to them today. One of the best and most underrated heavy metal bands of all time. This CD compilation has all the best songs from their best albums. . . their first three. I just wish there were more songs from the awesome album Screaming Blue Murder. . You can see a complete list of all Girlschool discography, or go back to the Girlschool tabs
