Album Review

This is another sampler album, culling material mostly from the late-'80s and early-'90s CDs Fishcotheque, Big Planet, Scary Planet, and Cult of Basement. Selections range from the enjoyably danceable folk-pop number "She's on Drugs" to the ineffective rap-oriented song "The Best Way." There's also a curious uptempo rocking cover of the 1960s Classics IV chart hit "Spooky," this version of which is marred by a dull middle improvisatory section. This is a respectable if somewhat bland and uneven collection; those hoping for the quality level of mid-'80s Jazz Butcher albums will be disappointed.
