Q Review: In hindsight, The
Beautiful South's 1994 Best Of, Carry On Up The Charts, was a little
premature. By end of the decade the nation's favourite jukebox troubadours
had clocked-up another eight singles, including five Top 20s, and it was
suddenly outdated. Hence this second, superior stab, covering the best of
both eras. The cute cynicism of early hits Song For Whoever and A Little
Time is still the main attraction. But, with their gallows humour, jaunty
tunes and ability to encapsulate life in three middle-of-the-road minutes
never faltering, latterday additions aren't far behind. In Rotterdam,
Don't Marry Her and Perfect 10 there are enough mid-tempo nods, winks and
sing-alongs to make this another lunchtime drinker's favourite.****(4
