It’s somehow fitting that the first definitive career overview from Blue Rodeo opens with a dressed-down but impassioned version of the Bee Gees’ orchestral-pop classic “To Love Somebody.” Not that the veteran Toronto roots-rockers are known for covers: the mark they’ve carved in Canadian music post-1985 is their own. But, even at their most ambitious, Blue Rodeo remain a bar-band at heart–a canny bunch with all the right rock & roll/pop/country/psych reference points pinned figuratively to their denim sleeves. Greatest Hits does what it should, laying out the band’s career highs on a single platter. First track aside, it sticks to chronological order–something that seems to have fallen out of vogue in the realm of best-ofs–and the distinct voices of tag-team songwriters Jim Cuddy and Greg Keelor ensure that things are nicely varied. The disc also underlines their deft balance of song smarts and adult-contemporary radio appeal. Though it’s lean at 13 tracks, this entry-level volume should make an ideal one-stop for fans and dabblers alike. –Kieran Grant
