Like all great musicians, the members of INXS were unafraid to pay tribute to their roots, a sensibility that in their case gave as much due to Chic and '70s disco as it did to traditional blues-rock. Spanning the band's obscure new wave debut single, early album tracks, and a wealth of hits from \"The One Thing\" to \"Bitter Tears,\" this set underscores those roots and the steadfast personal interplay and musical devotion that characterized the band. Hired-hagiographer David Fricke tells their story (with candid comments from the surviving players) in concise fashion while keyboardist and guitarist Andrew Farriss breaks the songs down in his track-by-track commentary. But it's the music here that does most of the talking, offering up a decade's worth of blood, sweat, and hits, as well as music infused with some previously underexposed creative and personal restlessness, particularly in the closing tracks. --Jerry McCulley      Product description      2CD set.
