Four CDs. First four albums from Glasgow's Strangeways who took their musical cues from across the pond, making melodic AOR style-rock inspired by bands such as Loverboy, Foreigner, Night Ranger and Journey. Covering their output from 1985 to 1994 with a host of bonus tracks, live and demos. They released their critically-acclaimed self-titled debut album in 1985. American Terry Brock replaced Tony Liddell as vocalist for the John Punter-produced Native Sons in 1987, arguably their greatest commercial success. The same line-up released the third album Walk In Fire in 1989. The story on this collection ends with fourth album, And The Horse, from 1994, by which time guitarist Ian Stewart had also taken on lead vocal duties. With grunge being the order of the day (as far as the fickle rock press were concerned, at least), the album saw Strangeways moving away from their original AOR sound to one that was more bluesy, jazzy and almost progressive in nature, with hints of Pink Floyd, while still remaining resolutely melodic.
