All Music Guide

Part of Legacy's Playlist series that boasts "the life-changing songs, the out-of-print tracks, the hits, the fan favorites everyone loves, and the songs that make the artists who they are," Playlist: The Very Best of Flock of Seagulls collects 13 songs from the immaculately coiffed new wave outfit including the radio hits "I Ran (So Far Away)," "Space Age Love Song," and "Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You," all of which appear on every other overview of the group on the market, making this one no better and no worse than the competition.
