 For an album of what was essentially odds and ends, it actually works reasonably well as a primer and introduction to his work since there are a couple of his odder moments (the french stuff though "Jolie Madame" is gorgeous!) intermingled within a whole bunch of hit singles that sadly never were. Harvest KNEW "Caribbean Moon" had hit written all over it to the degree I think they issued it three times to no avail.

I don't own this album - never needed to since I have all the tracks on other CD's and vinyl but would I be right in guessing that "Lady Rachel" is the remake? If so, mores the pity since it felt too bombastic compared to the simpler pastoral feel of the original. But otherwise, play most of this album to somebody who's never heard of him or his work, and they get quite a few good examples of what a great songwriter he was and how catchy he could be.
