Although the Spin Doctors are in danger of being remembered as the Knack of the '90s, this well-chosen greatest hits album demonstrates that they had more to offer than the open ended jams that made their initial reputation. When they felt like it, they could turn out concise pop gems, like "You Let Your Heart Go Too Fast" and "Two Princes," that deserved their hit status.
Those two, plus the ubiquitous "Little Miss Can't Be Wrong," are here, of course, along with superior japes like "Big Fat Funky Booty" and "You've Got to Believe in Something" (in which they sound like a New York City band of a much earlier vintage, specifically the Lovin' Spoonful). The previously unreleased "Miss America," from 1995, which sounds very much like it could have been a hit, makes for a nice bonus.
