I love the Satellites folks that is no secret as when they rolled into town back in December 89 to this day it’s still one of my favourite shows I have seen in Thunder Bay.
Dan Baird who wore many hats in band (singer, main songwriter, rhythm guitarist) left the band in 1991 never to return but the music does indeed live on as there three major label releases are featured on this 3 CD, 53 track ultimate collection that focuses on the band’s catalog of rock when they signed to Elektra Records.
“Ultimate” spans the years 1986 to 1990 as the band released three studio albums and various singles that are featured on this collection. There are b-sides and live songs included.
If you are looking for one stop Satellites shopping than ‘Ultimate’ is right in your wheelhouse.

Looks like a solid collection – and if it’s good enough for the Stream-O-Rater, that’s good enough for me!

My first stop on my rounds so I peek in on my buddy deKE and he comes up aces. Love these guys. I think we’ve chatted about that. I have the albums but this would be one that old CB would grab with both feet.

I just have the pain ol’ single CD of the self-titled album. It is pretty good but I don’t play it that often.
