Comment:

Raul Malo met bassist Robert Reynolds at a record store in Miami, Florida and discovered they had similar musical tastes (such as Hank Williams, Johnny Cash and Patsy Cline). Writing much of the material, and being a versatile singer, Raul Malo was a driving force behind the band.

Between 1991 and 2003 they recorded six studio albums, in addition to cha~rting fourteen singles on the Billboard country cha~rts. Their highest-peaking American single was 1996's "All You Ever Do Is Bring Me Down", a collaboration with accordionist Flaco Jiminez.

After the band split up in 2003, lead singer Raul Malo became a solo artist. Robert Reynolds has released two solo EPs, 'Audrey In A Dream' & 'The Wintersky Works', co-founded a 'sort-of-supergroup' called SWAG - releasing the album Catchall, and performs with fellow member Paul Deakin in various groups.

This is a collection of rarities and b-sides from the band's career.

Quiz - Malo's heritage is from which country? The correct answer wins a copy of the disc.
