    It's the essential elegy of everything that was and a moving reminder of all that could have been. [26 Nov 2016, p.53]

    All in all, this is a reissue as reissues ought to be done. A brilliant and familiar album remastered to perfection and bolstered by plenty of legitimately unheard material. Heavenly indeed.

    Some of this material, particularly the B-sides, are as finely honed as Apple, but the tracks that really kick are the rougher material on the third disc.

    This compilation of that [debut] album, Apple, plus preceding EP Shine, show what all the fuss was about. [Jan 2017, p.117]
