This is a strange little collection of songs from Pulp dating from 1983 to 1992. It may come as a surprise to some people that Pulp didn’t start off with Different Class, but the band were going for years even before this as an unsigned act. But what’s the album like? Well, not great. It starts off fine, My Legendary Girlfriend, Countdown and Death Goes to The Disco are all great, electronica tinged tracks. But by the time you get halfway through the album to Dogs Are Everywhere the quality is starting to drop alarmingly. This didn’t bother me as I only paid about £2 for the CD in a sale, but if you pay normal price you will feel ripped off.
