Entertainment Weekly (12/3/93, p.76) - "...Few have mastered the gruff AOR power ballad as easily as Bryan Adams...." - Rating: B

Throughout the 1980s and early 90s, few contemporary rock artists were able to come up with as many hits as Bryan Adams. This is especially evident through So Far So Good, which compiles many of his most noteworthy songs, from such rockers as "Summer of 69," "Run to You," and "Cuts Like a Knife" to the equally popular power ballads "Heaven" and "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You." Also included is the all-new "Please Forgive Me," one of his best power ballads. Its not quite a perfect compilation, however; in particular, his Top 20 hits "Shes Only Happy When Shes Dancin" and "Thought Id Died and Gone to Heaven" are overlooked. These are only minor flaws, though. There is no better introduction to Bryan Adams to date than So Far So Good. ~ Barry Weber
