Their strong harmonies, sparkling keyboard work, and quality songcraft were best emphasized on their mellower ballads, which became one of the group's hallmarks over the years. Following their split with Harvest Records in 1973, they signed a long contract with Polydor, a relationship that lasted almost two decades. Covered here on Universal's two-disc set Child of the Universe: The Essential Collection are highlights from the group's expansive Polydor catalog, culling tracks from 1974's Everyone Is Everybody Else all the way through 1990's Welcome to the Show. It's a well-curated anthology representing the most active portion of BJH's long career, consisting largely of studio material along with two songs from their Harvest era ("She Said" and "Mockingbird"), which appear as live renditions on the first disc. The Essential Collection is a solid introduction to a band that has made a lasting, if understated, impact in British rock history. ~ Timothy Monger Format: CD (1 Disc); Stereo Country: USA Studio/Live: Mixed Release Date: 3 September, 2013 Label: Spectrum Audio Uk Dimensions: 12.4 x 1 x 14.3 centimeters (0.06 kg)
