An Epic best-of: Finley Quaye collection out next month
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver June 25th, 2008

The end of the 1990s were great, yeah? Big Beat and Shine compilations, driving tests and university. Well, that was me anyway. And around the same time, someone allowed Finley Quaye to do pretty okay for himself. Wonders, they truly never cease.

But if you - you - were a fan of the disputed uncle of Tricky, you might want to get The Best of The Epic Years when it's released on July 7. Relive those heady days, hooray!

Or, not. Up to you. Tracklisting:

'Sunday Shining'
'It’s Great When We’re Together'
'Dice'
'Your Love Gets Sweeter'
'Even After All'
'Something To Say'
'Ultra Stimulation'
'Living Without You'
'Spiritualized'
'Maverick A Strike'
'When I Burn Off Into The Distance'
'This Is How I Feel'
'White Paper'
'Hey Now'
'Sweet And Loving Man'
'Burning'

That's 16 tracks from the period 1997-2004, including two top-20 singles. Y'know he won a BRIT Award, right? Crazy days.
