Let your love flow topped the pop charts in America while also becoming a sizeable country hit, as did all the other songs here.Of the remaining songs, Dancing cowboys and Do you love as good as you look both received significant airplay on some British radio stations but failed to chart in the UK - nevertheless, they are brilliant upbeat songs. Among the other songs, I particularly like For all the wrong reasons and Get into reggae cowboy - only the Bellamy brothers could imagine a cowboy enjoying reggae music, but why not? Other compilations of their music have been issued through the years, while the brothers also re-recorded their hits. However, if all you want is the early hits that set them on their way - and for which... Read more |
