This 5 CD Box Set includes 60 songs written and recorded by Eric Bogle. Eric has chosen the songs from his recorded output spanning the period 1980, when he released "Now I'm Easy", to 1997 and the release of "Small Miracles". Eric writes:- "Boxed sets of 'Greatest Hits' usually appear after the songwriter in question is safely dead, but I'm in reasonable health and I need the cash now. Anyway, this isn't really a 'Greatest Hits' compilation, it's more a collection of the songs that are most requested at my live concerts, plus a few of my personal favourites. Taken together they form a pretty fair cross section of the type of songs I have written over the last 30 years or so." Colin Irwin of the Melody Maker said of Eric - "Most of the best contemporary songs of the 70's were written by Eric Bogle".
