Bag Of Hits (15 Interglobal Chartstoppers) [PA] - Fun Lovin' Criminals

Advantages: Funky, brilliant
Disadvantages: CIAO won't add it to new products

...band with former band member Steve-O. Mackie: The new boy of the band. He is the replacement drummer for Steve-O and joined the band in 1999. He has previously been involved with other bands before joined the Fun Lovin Criminals but they were punk/rock bands.

This is an album that most people can enjoy, it's not heavy... Read review
