Hits (Remastered)

Mike + the Mechanics: Paul Carrack (vocals, keyboards); Paul Young (vocals); Mike Rutherford (guitar, bass guitar). Additional personnel: Tim Renwick (guitar, bass guitar); Adrian Lee (keyboards); Gary Wallis, Peter Van Hooke (drums). All of Mike + the Mechanics' biggest hits are included on the 13-track Hits collection. Though there are a fair share of non-hits and mediocre album tracks, Hits is a first-rate compilation, giving the casual fan all of the essential Mike + the Mechanics tracks, from "Silent Running (On Dangerous Ground)" and "All I Need Is a Miracle '96" to "The Living Years." ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
