This is a German pressing of a best of collection from The Beat (known in North American as the English Beat and in Oz as the British Beat). It's a fine assembly of the most popular tunes, bundled together with a free remix album. The Beat is an interesting fusion of ska, pop, reggae, and maybe some punk.
This is one of those records that really takes me back to my undergrad days. The song Mirror in the Bathroom, really transports me.
I just read that the band will release a new album next year, after running a Pledge music fundraiser. I am curious to see if they manage to come up with something good.
