The Very Best of the Undertones

Editorial Reviews
From the Label
The definitive Undertones collection, with 25 tracks including all of their single A-sides plus some indispensable album tracks. Leading off with the anthemic "Teenage Kicks" (picked by influential UK DJ John Peel as his favorite track of all time), the album cruises through the punk-pop gems of their first two albums, the textured pop of POSITIVE TOUCH, and the soul/psychedelic leanings of THE SIN OF PRIDE.

All the key Undertones tracks are here, from the bratty blasts of "Jimmy Jimmy" and "Here Comes the Summer," to the politically-edged "It's Going to Happen," to the upbeat final single "The Love Parade." It wouldn't be an Undertones collection without non-singles anthems like "More Songs About Chocolate and Girls" and "Family Entertainment" so we've included those too. Also here is the non-LP single "You've Got My Number (Why Don't You Use It!)", which many fans pick as their fave. And since some of the Undertones' best tracks wound up on B-sides, we've also included the chocoholic's anthem "Mars Bars" and the cover of the Chocolate Watchband's "Let's Talk About Girls." It's as much top-flight Undertones as we could possibly cram onto a single CD.
