March 1, 20232 yr Does anyone know if the greatest hits managed to stay top 200 last week, if nothing else it would have probably got another 1k sales last week.
April 2, 20232 yr Better late than never to find this out, 'Best' re-entered the UK albums chart at #178 on 24th February! It was the album's 20th week in the Top 200.
April 2, 20232 yr Hooray!! Would love to see an updated sales figure for it at some point, I assume it trickles along quite nicely if not as impressively as many GH albums.
September 21, 20231 yr Out on picture disc on 6th October! https://shop.sclub7.co.uk/products/best-gre...its-of-s-club-7 All singles and Everybody Get Pumped, no Bring the House Down (or Friday Night / Rain from re-issue)
September 21, 20231 yr Rain not being on there is a slight shame! Although with it being one disc, it would have been pushing it a bit to have more than 7 songs on each side.
October 2, 20231 yr Ordered my copy of this today! It's out on Friday :cheer: (will save my orders of '7' and Sunshine picture discs for next month as they're not out til then)
October 3, 20231 yr Excited for this one *.* Not sure what to predict for its sales, it's not had a very long pre-order.
October 7, 20231 yr Received the vinyl yesterday! It's a bit bare bones design wise, but it's nice anyway.
October 7, 20231 yr Same!! Going to be investing in some more vinyl display pieces so I can display all of these new S Club ones :lol:
October 8, 20231 yr Author Received mine yesterday and spinning it now. Regrettably, the album versions of "Two In A Million" and "You're My Number One" are incorrectly on here and not the far superior single versions as they should be which puts a bit of a dampener on this release for me :angry:
October 8, 20231 yr Author It gets worse. The single versions of "You" and "Love Ain't Gonna Wait For You" aren't on here either. Seriously. Whoever signed off the masters on these needs sacking! I fortunately ordered mine off a Universal Music affiliated store (Recordstore.co.uk) so I have emailed them to outline the issue in detail and ask for it be escalated to the relevant higher powers. I realise this may not resolve it given the contempt Simon Fuller treats it with, but if you don't say anything how will they know?
October 8, 20231 yr How crap. I bought this yesterday too but haven't listened properly yet. £35 is not a small sum to pay for such a shoddily compiled release. I did have a quick play and noticed how inferior it sounded compared to Delta's Mistaken Identity vinyl that I received the day before.
October 8, 20231 yr Oh wow, this is very disappointing! :( Extremely low effort from those who organised this to not even pick out the correct versions. <_< How about Natural, is that the album version too?
October 9, 20231 yr Author Oh wow, this is very disappointing! :( Extremely low effort from those who organised this to not even pick out the correct versions. <_< How about Natural, is that the album version too? I was about to say, suddenly it becomes apparent why the speed of this release was so rapid <_< And re: Natural, mercifully that is the only one with its correct single version on there. If that wasn't on there I really would riot.
October 9, 20231 yr I had a listen to my copy and it doesn't sound too good either... which can often be the case with picture discs, but sometimes they're fine or even great. I can't see myself playing Best on picture disc again, when it's an inferior way of hearing their songs & with it not even having all the correct versions! By the way, there isn't an inner sheet with credits, is there? My copy doesn't have one anyway. The quality of Best is making me reconsider the 'S Club' and '7' preorders :cry: I know I'll experience FOMO if I don't have them though :drama: Why oh why couldn't they just go with standard vinyl pressings. :( Honestly I think I'll be the one found rioting if they do end up existing eventually and I shelled out all this money on shoddy picture discs :lol:
October 9, 20231 yr There's no credits sheet in mine either, it's a very cheaply made release for the price. I think I might sidestep the S Club and 7 releases based on the quality of this.
