Album Review

This Collection from the late Kirsty MacColl includes seven cuts from 1989's Kite, six from 1991's Electric Landlady, and three singles. Both albums dutifully represent MacColl at her commercial peak, but the lack of any material from 1993's excellent Titanic Days makes 2005's far more comprehensive Best of Kirsty MacColl a far better choice for listeners looking to experience the full scope of this talented singer/songwriter's all too short career.
