Flying Nun Records released The Clean’s “Tally Ho!” single in 1981, and it soon became the rallying cry of a charge that still continues. Thirty years on, Tally Ho! seems a fitting title for what is the first “best of” compilation the label has ever put together. This two-disc set collects material that falls under the broad category of “pop music” as well as that which pushed boundaries and did not sit comfortably within the popular market. At the same time, the two discs overlap a great deal, and together they showcase an important and creatively powerful artistic output that remains relevant today. It’s 30 years of Flying Nun’s very own “greatest bits.”
