Review by Juragan Tawa

The Best The Rest Of The Island Years 74-78 is an outstanding album that captures the essence of Sparks' music during their early years. This compilation features some of the band's most iconic tracks, including "This Town Ain't Big Enough For Both of Us," "Amateur Hour," and "Never Turn Your Back on Mother Earth."

The album showcases the band's unique style, which blends elements of glam rock, art rock, and pop. The lyrics are witty, satirical, and at times, absurd, which adds to the overall charm of the music. The instrumentation is also impressive, with intricate arrangements and catchy melodies that stay with the listener long after the album has ended.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "The Number One Song in Heaven," which features a collaboration with legendary producer Giorgio Moroder. The song is an electronic masterpiece that showcases the band's willingness to experiment with new sounds and styles.
