Totally. Even if you don't like the hits then the Flood II, Driven LIke The Snow, Neverland, Torch, Colours, Emma sequence are all up there with the second side of Closer or a the really good bits of an early Gary Numan record. None more black.



the vinyl always seemed to fizzle out a bit but as you say the extra tracks fill it out wonderfully


With the benefit of 20:20 hindsight it might have been an idea back then to leave the singles off and just release it as a mood(y) music record. Would give Fourth Drawer Down a run for its money. There is also some fantastic playing/programming on those b sides. Might be time for a classic b side thread.
