Our Take

Ocean Colour Scene may not have the mainstream recognition of some of their Britpop peers, but their latest compilation album, "It's A Beautiful Thing: The Best Of" Deluxe Edition, proves that they are a force to be reckoned with in the music world.

Kicking things off with their iconic anthem "The Riverboat Song," the band showcases their knack for crafting catchy, guitar-driven tunes that are guaranteed to get your toes tapping. Tracks like "Hundred Mile High City" and "Better Day" are perfect examples of their ability to blend rock and soul influences into a sound that is uniquely their own.

But it's not all high-energy rockers on this album. The band also shows their softer side with tracks like "Huckleberry Grove" and "Old Pair of Jeans." These heartfelt ballads showcase frontman Simon Fowler's emotive vocals and the band's tight musicianship.

Overall, "It's A Beautiful Thing: The Best of" Deluxe Edition is a must-listen for any fan of alternative rock. Ocean Colour Scene may not be a household name, but this album proves that they deserve a spot alongside the greats of the genre. So sit back, relax, and let the music wash over you - it truly is a beautiful thing.
