I read a review somewhere that compared INXS to Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. Not that far off, really. Both bands had consistent lineups (INXS had no personnel changes from 1977 through 1997). Both made consistently pleasing albums with plenty of hits that the critics shrugged off as unimportant. And both bands had very strong fan bases. INXS rose out of Australia in 1980 and made album after album, hit after hit, staying almost completely under the radar of those looking for the best bands of their time. But, years after the end of INXS and the suicide of lead singer Michael Hutchense, their music still stands strong. The Greatest Hits is almost a complete overview of their career: it ignores the first three albums, and came out before their last effort, Elegantly Wasted. It does cover their most fruitful period, when they were darlings of MTV and when you couldn’t listen to the radio for half an hour without hearing a song by INXS.
Their best period was from Listen Like Thieves (1985) through X (1990), with their biggest seller Kick in the middle. These albums are well represented here, and the compilation was issued with different track lists depending on what songs were big in what country. This, the American version, is a nice set of great singles without the filler of their studio albums. Things get a little weak towards the end, but the first eleven tracks, in particular, are as good a hits compilation as you could hope for from this band. It’s good to have “Suicide Blonde”, “The One Thing”, and “New Sensation” on one disc. They went on, even doing a reality show in 2005 to find a lead singer. But since the death of Hutchense in 1997, they released only one album of new material before calling it a day in 2012. But INXS was, particularly from 1985-90, one of the biggest bands on the planet. This is a good collection to re-live that experience. [First added to this chart: 12/23/2025]

1978-PORTRAIT
Produced By MIKE FLICKER, HEART & MICHAEL FISHER
1. Cook With Fire
2. High Time
3. Hijinx
4. Straight On
5. Dog & Butterfly
6. Lighter Touch
7. Nada One
8. Mistral Wind
I’ve always had a soft spot for Dog & Butterfly. In my younger days, I had a very difficult time falling asleep, but side two of this album always did the trick. The title track mellowed me out, and I’d be fast asleep by the middle of “Lighter Touch”. Worked every time. The album came out following Heart’s disastrous battle with Mushroom Records, which resulted in the unauthorized album Magazine earlier in the year. Dog & Butterfly was the intended follow up to Little Queen, and it’s not quite at that level. In fact, it’s about average, a level that Heart has never risen above since. They went through several different incarnations, including a glam metal phase, a power ballad phase, a folk duo phase, but nothing could hide the fact that despite their willingness to carry on, their songwriting chops had simply dried up early.
But there’s still some gas left in the tank here. The album is split evenly between “Dog” (rockers) and “Butterfly” (slower acoustic songs). ‘Cook With Fire” sounds live, but it’s been debated for years that it’s actually a studio recording with overdubs. “High Time” and “Straight On” got airplay, but it’s the under rated “Hijinx” that sounds the best. The “Butterfly” side is not as much fun, but as noted above, it WILL help you sleep. The title track was a hit, but the rest is just snoozy. The result of trying to divide the album like this is that it sounds uneven and inconsistent. More tracks like “Hijinx” could have made this a winner, but instead it falls in the “okay” pile. They went on to record one more album in their initial style (Bebe Le Strange) before trying their hand at 80’s glam. Dog & Butterfly is good, but you’ll end up knowing it could have been better.

1995-A&M
Produced By DENNIS HERRING
1. Keeping Awake
2. Bright As Yellow
3. Brave
4. That Was Another Country
5. Speak Our Minds
6. Happy, The End
7. Our Harry
8. Go
9. Everything's Different Now
10. Spinning
11. There
12. I Hear You Say So
Out of Pennsylvania came The Innocence Mission, a smart band led by singer Karen Peris. The songs are built around Peris' beautiful voice, perfect for setting the mood for tunes about childhood and reminiscing. The band is very good, and they got a big boost with "Bright As Yellow", a hit from the movie Empire Records. The rest of Glow is very good as well, and probably the best place to start with this band. They will not rock your socks off, but they will charm your ass off. This is a very good band, and Glow is a very good record.
The Innocence Mission continues on today with the original lineup, having released their 11th album in 2015. A great discovery. [First added to this chart: 12/08/2025]
