Análisis (en inglés) - :
{^Best Moves} brings together the strongest singles from {$Chris de Burgh}'s first five albums, making for a short but pleasant collection of early material. Not all the tracks are {\ballads} though, and the album is greatly benefited by the eerie {&"Spanish Train"} and the whimsical air of {&"Patricia the Stripper."} A live version of {&"Broken Wings"} appears here as well, with its album version coming from 1977's {^At the End of a Perfect Day}. With his more graceful work, songs like {&"Every Drop of Rain,"} {&"Satin Green Shutters,"} and {&"Lonely Sky"} showcase his talent for singing elegant {\ballads} that glisten with {$de Burgh}'s rural feel. {&"A Spaceman Came Travelling"} is one of his more appealing story-type songs that is benefited by its hymn-like chorus. By far, the greatest attribute of {^Best Moves} is the addition of the nine-minute {&"Crusader"} from the album of the same name. Not found on {^The Very Best of Chris de Burgh}, one of the more accessible compilations from this artist, its wonderful tempo change and narrative balance out all the other {\ballads} on this 11-song set. As the songs on this collection prove, {$de Burgh}'s most enjoyable material came from early in his career. {^Best Moves} offers an admirable assortment of both love songs and intricately woven tales. Although much of his material that followed this compilation should not be disregarded, this album does make for a brief but delightful listen. ~ Mike DeGagne, All Music Guide
