Details: Amazon.ca It only took one song from a David Lynch film (Wild At Heart) to launch a coiffed Canadian ex-boxer on the international stage but, as this anthology of songs culled from his first three albums shows, Wicked Game was far from a fluke. A voice seemingly cloned from Roy Orbison's very own DNA--coupled with the kind of looks that go straight to a woman's knees--meant that Chris Isaak didn't need to be a great songwriter. And yet only one of these haunting hymns to heartbreak (The Yardbirds' classic "Heart Full Of Soul") wasn't written by Isaak. So what does this teach us? Merely that: (a) God isn't exactly fair in his distribution of qualities; and (b) don't believe those nay-sayers who claim that all the best tunes have been taken up. "Lie To Me", "Blue Hotel" and, of course, that awesome theme to Wild At Heart are melancholy masterpieces of their genre. --Peter Paphides Product Description 12 Track Collection that Includes Hits from his First Three Albums. Includes Exclusive Instrumental Version of his Hit 'Wicked Game'.
