     "Missing Links" is a very special kind of musical career retrospective, consisting mainly of songs, that haven't made it (at least not in their present form) onto any of the group's studio albums so far (sometimes for quite droll reasons) plus two exciting remixes of the Fixx classics "Stand Or Fall" and "Red Skies".
     Whilst these two remixed versions will certainly attract a great number of new listeners via the radio, on the strength of the excellence of the music and the witty intelligence of The Fixx's lyrics, confirmed aficionados of the band will find pleasant surprises on the record, as well as the occasional sense of deja vu – especially in the case of "I've Been Here Before", which was for many years the opener to The Fixx's live shows. The most resourceful listener might even realize, that they've even heard the song "Do What You Can" before: some years ago, the band recorded a slightly different version of that composition and "hid" it on one of their regular CD's. Missing links is a rich bag of musical surprises.
