Finding a cheap copy of Alison Moyet's Singles compilations was quite exciting for me. After loving Yazoo's In Your Room box earlier this year, I was glad to get the chance to explore Moyet's solo career further, as I'd known very little of her stuff. Wow! She's released some amazing singles. Highlights include "Solid Wood," "Whispering Your Name," and "Is This Love," three tracks I'd not heard, in addition to prior favorite "Love Resurrection." There's not a bad song on here. "Falling" finds her sounding like another artist I greatly enjoy, Kirsty MacColl. Renditions of standards like "Love Letters," "That Ole Devil Called Love," and "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" further demonstrate Moyet's versatility. Highly recommended collection.
