They've been around a while so that means that it's about time there was a collection of their best hits about and here it is. 12 tracks from three albums, plus a newie. Why do they all have to do that these days? Appropriately enough there are five from 'Love's Still Changing Hearts' and four from 'Stir It Up', whilst 'Big God' only has a triumvirate of entries - speaking as one who reviewed 'Big God' I'd say the planner has been more than kind here. Apart from those, which all appear at the end of the offering, this is an otherwise excellent tour-de-force of the Imperials at their vocal best. There's the up tempo harmony of "Taking Your Love For Granted" and "Stir It Up" and the showstopper of "Come Into My Life" with all the highly charged emotion that is the band's strength. Phillips, Craig And Dean may well have taken pole position in this musical territory but this is an album worth having too.
