Cross My Heart: An Introduction to Phil Ochs is a British best-of for the folksinger who committed suicide in 1976. Drawing from his later tracks on A&M Records, it featured three tracks each from Pleasures Of The Harbor, Tape From California, and Rehearsals For Retirement two from Greatest Hits and one from Gunfight At Carnegie Hall, with the thirteenth track the B-side to his 1973 Africa-only single, "Niko Mchumba Ngobe." Overall, this is a more diverse collection than 2002's 20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection: The Best of Phil Ochs.
