60s British Invasion Pop/Folk/Beat: Peter & Gordon - The EP Collection (1995 See For Miles) Reissue

 


Although this 29-track compilation is ostensibly a roundup of songs that appeared on foreign EPs, it actually serves as a greatest-hits collection of sorts. The sequencing is unfortunately haphazard, jumping all over the place chronologically, but it does include all ten of their U.S. Top 40 singles. In fact, it's a substantially better deal than the domestic best-of that appeared on Rhino a few years before this; it has more songs, presents some pretty good B-sides and non-45 tracks, and puts a greater weight on their original compositions. 

The inclusion of four French songs from a rare EP will please collectors, although for general listeners' purposes it would have been wiser to feature the English versions.

So if you make a compilation of EPs by an artist, you should also do it in chronological order imho. Well, you can't have everything.😉 Enjoy.(Frank)
