Sometimes, as the wisdom of Huey Lewis so sagely tells us, bad is bad. But then again, Huey never contemplated THE BADDEST OF GEORGE THOROGOOD AND THE DESTROYERS, of which it is ineluctable fact that the baddest here is actually the best--which is to say that this is one greatest hits package that really delivers. Everything a devoted Thorogood fan could want, save "I Drink Alone" and "Haircut" (which unfortunately was recorded a year too late to make the cut), is here on one convenient CD. And there are two swell new bonus tracks--a remake of Thorogood's earlier version of the Robert Johnson classic "Steady Rollin' Man," plus an extremely loud assault on Chuck Berry's "Louie to Frisco" on which the great Rolling Stones sideman Ian Stewart contributes definitive boogie woogie piano stylings.
Industry Reviews
..With a mighty bellow and snarling barbed-wire slide guitar, George sets 'em up like a friendly bartender in this decade's worth of no-frills rock-and-blues shots.. - Rating: B
