ONE OF THE GREAT AMERICAN BANDS
Packed full of stories and fables tight and terse; this set is a more than worthy roundup. If you want honest-sounding rock music that forsakes flash for passion and heart-- listen to The Smithereens. .


from jersey they came
. . and into my loving hands they landed. all tracks that matter are in there. this smithereens fan can never ask for more.


For the devoted fan
d. This c. comes nicely laden with all the crucial Smithereens album cuts you could want. Sad to say, their albums could be thin affairs. The singles would be front-loaded , but by track 9 your interest would be lost. This compiliation suffers the same fate. The pop peaks of their singles take you so high that some of the lesser tracks feel like a letdown. You might find yourself jumping tracks a lot. If you're looking for the Smithereens' cream, try Blown Away instead. All of their tastiest singles are there, and they provide a pop rush far greater than any Smithereens record, including this one.
.


Ah, Get a Hold of the Smithereens

Most every essential (and non essential) tune represented here. Fab package of eighties classics.
Wish they had included "Get a Hold of My Heart" .


Put out something new, then I might agree with you.


Translation: RELEASE A NEW BLOODY ALBUM ALREADY! You're almost as bad as Boston or Leonard Cohen!
