Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
In the wake of Michael Hutchence's tragic death, INXS's Greatest Hits seems sadly ironic in that it is, in part, a fitting eulogy and biography. No doubt about it, Hutchence gave the band its charisma, its sensuality, and also its funk appeal. So what if he couldn't dance? His phrasing and sense of timing were more than half of the rhythm behind "Need You Tonight", "What You Need", and "New Sensation". He even gave Mick Jagger a run for his money with "Devil Inside" and "Suicide Blonde". As a band, INXS were a finely honed machine, even from the beginning new-wave horns of "The One Thing" to the more orchestral "Never Tear Us Apart". The collection also contains two unreleased tracks, but, interestingly enough, the transcending and powerful "Don't Change" is nowhere to be found. --Steve Gdula

Format:Audio CD
This album is one of my favorites and should to be a classic in every household. A very fine collection of INXS' best tracks, demonstrating the band's consistent strength and depth of lyrics. Aussie Michael Hutchence (bless him) vocals are excellent and powerful as ever. Tim Farriss (guitar) and Kirk Pengilly (guitar, saxophone) are absolute star performers. I can recommend this album highly to everyone who is looking for a string of top-notch rock-pop songs.

This is a great CD/album. All the essential INXS songs are on here. The wonderful voice of Michael Hutchence and the great music of INXS.

I was not a follower of INXS particularly, but one of their songs always stuck in my mind. 'Greatest Hits' was a bit of a compromise as I don't really like this type of album, but I went against my grai! Great album and several excellent tracks.
