Format:Audio CD
Every song on the album can be listened to over and over again. I usually skip from one track to another after about a minute of listening or sometimes as soon as I have heard the first chorus. NOT SO with this album. A real delight from a class act. Noddy Holders' voice has never been replicated by anyone and is never likely to be either. This is the best value CD I have ever purchased.

Slade were one of the heaviest glam rock bands of the 70's, but never the coolest. They looked like your dad and his friends dressed up after getting drunk at Christmas, and they obviously didn't know a good hairdresser! OK, so they didn't manage to understand how to put the glam image together, but they understood how to make the best glam music.
This is a fantastic collection of their early material, from the catchy 'Cos I Love You' through all their big number ones like the very loud 'Mamma We're All Crazy Now'. I'm not too sure about some of the mid 80's stuff as they never really managed to capture the early success again (hence taking one star off), but the early stuff really makes up for it. OK, let's say 4.5 stars, because none of the songs are that bad. The track order is chronological, but the best thing is that they have put 'Merry Xmas Everybody' at the end so that you can stop the CD if you're not in a Christmas mood. There's nothing worse than a Christmas song popping up half way through a CD!
They were the first band to get songs going straight in to number one since the Beatles, and this wasn't repeated until the advent of the Jam some years later. It might not seem a big thing now with manufactured bollocks going straight in to number one on the back of some crappy TV show, but it's easy to forget that you had to sell about 10 times as many singles back then to get a number one.
I completely forgive the bad clothes and bad haircuts every time I hear these songs again though!

Slade are one of the most critically under rated rock bands of all time. Six No.1's, three of which entered straight at No.1. They were the first band to do this since the Beatles. Every song on this CD is a classic. A CD which will have everybody screaming along with Noddy on a "crazee" ride down memory lane. They were the original Oasis. The lyrics may have been mispelt and inane (Skweeze me,Pleeze me ?) but boy how we loved them....It's as if they've never been away....

Slade, right ... mirrored top hat, perennial Xmas song, ridiculous silver platforms, etc. But this band didn't go directly to No.1 every release for no reason. Read more

Ah - nostalgia rules
Takes me back to being a spotty teenager with a crummy record player and amp, but which still made a lot of noise. Happy Days!
