''The Lost Album/The Collection'' is a double disc album by Australian glam rock band Skyhooks, released in 1999. "The Lost Album" was the result of 1990–1994 recording sessions, involving their classic lineup of the early-to-mid 1970's of which only three tracks had been released earlier, "Jukebox in Siberia" and "Tall Timber" in 1990 and "Happy Hippy Hut" in 1994. All were released as singles, with the former two also a part of ''The Latest and Greatest'' compilation in 1990. Skyhooks made these latter recordings with a new album in mind, what might have been their first studio album in 14 years, but, for their own reasons, they chose not to go ahead with the album. The album remained in Mushroom's vaults, until 1999, when Skyhooks released it with a greatest hits disc called "The Collection", featuring tracks from their five 1970's albums. Despite being released in 1999, its ARIA Chart peak came in 2001 at number 36. ==Review== Eduardo Rivadavia from AllMusic gave the double disc set 4 out of 5 saying; "Skyhooks were once one of that country's most successful, influential, and controversial bands -- a true antipodean phenomenon for much of the 1970s!" He said "() two-disc survey containing all of the signature songs found on Skyhooks' five 1970s studio efforts, along with a wealth of non-album singles and outtakes." He said the 11 new tracks on disc two have Macaish's cleverly amusing lyrics similarly to the tracks on the greatest hits. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Lost Album (Skyhooks album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
