1995 – MERCURY
Produced By ROBERT JOHN “MUTT” LANGE, MIKE SHIPLEY, DEF LEPPARD & PETE WOODROFFE
1. Pour Some Sugar On Me
2. Photograph
3. Love Bites
4. Let’s Get Rocked
5. Two Steps Behind (Acoustic Version)
6. Animal
7. Foolin’
8. Rocket
9. When Love & Hate Collide
10. Armageddon It
11. Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad
12. Rock Of Ages
13. Hysteria
14. Miss You In A Heartbeat (Acoustic Version)
15. Bringin’ On The Heartbreak
So…I guess the question is, how much do you love Def Leppard? This best of from 1995 covers a lot less ground than the fifteen years the title suggests. In the period between 1980 and 1995, Def Leppard actually only released five albums. Their debut, On Through The Night, is not represented here at all. There is only one track (“Bringin’ On The Heartbreak”) from the second album, High ‘N’ Dry. Two tracks (the two acoustic versions) are from the 1993 compilation of B sides and unreleased stuff called Retro Active. This leaves us with 12 of the 15 tracks on this best of culled from only three albums: 1983’s Pyromania, 1987’s Hysteria, and the highly inferior 1992 album Adrenalize.
The results are mixed. And while it might be nice having the hits from their two big winners, Pyromania and Hysteria on one disc, this means that you also have to take them alongside the two tracks from Adrenalize. “Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad” is boring and typical hair metal power ballad fodder, while “Let’s Get Rocked” is so stupid that it actually tries to be clever and replace the word “fuck” with “rock”. You want the best of Def Leppard? Really? Go out and get yourself High ‘N’ Dry, Pyromania and Hysteria. Those albums are a lot of fun, and there is nothing from the rest of this band’s discography that you need to have. At all. This one should be for bargain hunters only.

1995 – MCA NASHVILLE

1. Never Alone
2. Never Knew Lonely (Single Version)
3. When I Call Your Name
4. Liza Jane
5. Look At Us
6. Take Your Memory With You
7. Pocket Full Of Gold
8. The Heart Won’t Lie
9. Don’t Let Our Love Start Slippin’ Away
10. I Still Believe In You
11. No Future In The Past
12. Tryin’ To Get Over You
13. One More Last Chance
14. I Can’t Tell You Why
15. I Will Always Love You
Vince Gill first showed up in 1979 as the lead singer (post “Amie”) of the country rock band Pure Prairie League. He was the vocalist on the band’s other sizable hit. “Let Me Love You Tonight”. A sought after session player and singer (he was once invited to join Dire Straits), Gill began his solo career in 1985. By 1989, he was making platinum albums, which he did throughout the nineties. Souvenirs was, strangely, the third of three compilations released by Gill in 1995. This was the more successful of the three, thanks in part to a duet with Dolly Parton on her song “I Will Always Love You”, which Dolly also released on her album Something Special. Souvenirs covers the years 1989 and the album When I Call Your Name through 1994’s When Love Finds You.
All but three tracks are written by Gill. The Dolly song. “The Heart Won’t Lie” (a duet with Reba), and his version of “I Can’t Tell You Why” from the Eagles tribute album, Common Threads. This is the most fruitful portion of Gill’s career, and these songs are uniformly great. He’s a top notch singer…hell. He’s got a true golden throat. And his material is so good, with everything here perfectly chosen. Ballads like “Look At Us” are just flat beautiful. His update of the old “Little Liza Jane” is impeccable, and the upbeat songs are perfect and never silly. Plus, his guitar work is all over these songs as well. Sales slipped in the 2000’s, but the quality of his work did not. Souvenirs is a perfect place to start with Vince Gill. It’s a best of from his true peak as an artist. A perfect compilation.
