25 Years - The Chain

[Dex]

As a die-hard fan, I enjoy the album. There are some great hidden gems going on in that package, as you guys have rightly pointed out. As a representation of a lengthy body of work, I find a lot of the choices haven't aged very well. It was a product of the early 90s, and they emphasized that era more than it deserves, especially at the expense of a lot of superior Welch-era stuff.

I like the idea of this release a lot, but it needs some tweaking/updating, for sure.
