This three-disc budget-priced (and packaged) set of material from Yorkshire-based pop/rock outfit Smokie may appeal more to European listeners than the U.S market, where the band never managed to climb high enough chart-wise to develop the kind of following that similarly themed acts like America, the Hollies, and Bread did.
