I can't even say this is his best work, although it is good. I probably could have done all of his work as a musician. Which this pick has a lot of. Or only work of his as a producer and there is a lot of that too. But I chose to pick a little of each. Just enough to give you a taste so you'd go looking for more. I always liked everything on the Welcome To Woop Woop soundtrack (even though I hear some people hated the movie and the soundtrack, too bad for them). When I saw that Hine had played with Poe as well as produced the track, I had to include it. Saga and Rush was never in question. I did want to include a track from the Better Off Dead soundtrack, but, oh well. I did love that movie too. I saw the French band Les Negresses Vertes live once in NY and it was a great show. I'd see them again. They were followed by some French groupies who were surprised that they could get so close to the band (as they were just starting out playing in the US). I was happy to meet them, but happier to hear them play live. At the time I had no idea that Rupert Hine would produce them.
