Clássico dos anos 80 - O DVD está ótimo, c/ clips muito criativos e bem produzidos, ainda mais se levarmos em conta a época em q foram feitos. O CD tem as melhores músicas da banda. Vale a pena comprar.
There is a little part of me.... - that thinks the Housemartins were the greatest band ever. This is a great compendium to everything else that is available and for those in the US -- the DVD plays just fine in my DVD player.I really love the housemartins.
Wonderful! - This is a great collection featuring all of the hits and more, and the DVD is also great seeing how most of these videos never aired in the US. Also, the DVD plays fine on US Region 1 players.Check this out if you re a Norman Cook or Paul Heaton fan!
Amazing - Often with the flair of being political,the Housemartins wrote catchy refined pop anthems.Paul Heaton has continued this with the Beautiful South,another often overlooked band.Orchestrated with great harmonies, this disc is a joy from start to finish. Norman Cook(aka-Fatboy Slim) makes this a band worth listening and finding about.-Ant
