Back to 19 Mistakes

Compiling the best tracks from Gruppo Sportivo's first two albums, Back to 19 Mistakes highlights both their strengths and weaknesses. They could parody almost any musical genre ("I Shot My Manager" aims at both blues and reggae, for example), and when they hit lyrically, they could be quite withering ("Superman," with its love triangle, works very well). Also includes "Disco Really Made It," "Rock'n'Roll," "Blah Blah Magazine," "One Way Love," and their cover of Wall of Voodoo's "Mexican Radio." ~ Chris Nickson
