Have to like the title "The First 50 Years: Songs Of Boomtown Glory"
As if there will be a second 50 years biggrin

Have to say, not my choice of the best 24/27 songs.  Quite how so many post 1986 songs made it beggars belief.  I guess I will end up buying it, but will probably not get played. 

  • The Boomtown Rats 4
  • Tonic for The Troops 5
  • Fine Art of Surfacing 4 (1)
  • Mondo Bongo 2
  • V Deep 1 (1)
  • In The Long Grass 2 (1)
  • Citizens of Boomtown 5 + 1

I am surprised that House On Fire never made it onto the vinyl as it was the last Rats song to hit the top 30 and I always thought that the 7 inch was  much better than the longer album version.

Why no Never in a Million Years? One of their better singles and achieved a higher chart position than every Grass single, apart from Drag Me Down. Go Man Go was an Irish single release and also curiously absent. Why the obsession with Keep it Up making it on to each new compilation? I know most male fans are now in their late 50s and 60s but do you have to rub it in?

 

Or is it only available as a blue tablet still? no

 

Asking for a friend obviously.
