Gold
Release
Date: 7 May 2007
May
2007 saw the release of the second compilation to bear
the name The Wurzels Greatest Hits. This collection
brings The Wurzels story right up to date with the inclusion
of three tracks from the Never Mind The Bullocks
album, and the band's 2007 single I Am A Cider Drinker
2007 performed with Tony Blackburn.
Along
with these are all your old favourites from the post-Adge
line-up - or at least enough from each phase of The
Wurzels evolution to please those fans who buy a Best
Of compilation. However, Adge fans looking at the track
list and expecting all those classic Adge Cutler performances
may be a little disppointed, as theuy will find that
the majority of the older songs are The Wurzels re-recorded
versions from the A Taste Of Somerset album,
so this truly is a 'Wurzels' compilation album.
