If you like Pop Music but want to find an artist who you can move forward with look no further than Joe Jackson. This Album is a light introduction to the myriad styles and genres that Joe has encompassed in a career spanning 25 years. The Album is mainly made up of old favourites "Its different for Girls" and "Is she really going out with him", along with the sublime "Stepping Out". If you don't know Joe Jacksons music this is a good place to start.

This remarkable debut on Factory has simply grown in stature in the years since its release. At odds with the general Madchester scene, and indeed with everything else around at the time, it was impossible to tell who the members of this band had been listening to. Though our listening perceptions are inevitably coloured by the tragic future of Ian Curtis, there is an undeniably awesome stature in these impeccably produced sides

'ABC' were certainly one of the most unique sounds to come out of the 80s. Martin Fry's voice being certainly unique and immediately recognisable. A string of hits ensued from: 'The Lexicon Of Love' between 1981 and 1982 - including the classic epic 'All Of My Heart' which always reminds me of when we got our first Video Recorder and captured the fabulous Video to this song from TOTOP. This album features only two parts from the collection of the four of 'The Look Of Love' (parts 1 & 4) and so if you want to hear the other two, then you'll have to buy the 12" Single where all four parts were brought together as a Collectors' Item! Great sounding band with a great debut album - still sounds great today! >>More Details |

Buying this CD like me, as a reminder of my teenage days, you might now find
some of the lyrics primitive and a few tracks outdated in soundscape. However, including Kershaw's debut album Human Racing almost in its entirety and a good half of the second release, The Riddle, this CD is a particularly good option to get also the less known tracks (the contemplative Human Racing or Save the Whale, the futuristic Drum Talk or Dancing Girls that might be difficult to come by on a digital release nowadays. If you like the 80s futu pop stuff, Kershaw Essential is a place to go. >>More Details |

I bought this album for my wife as part of a birthday present. I'd not been a great New Order fan at the time of their rise to power - possibly still a bit miffed at the demise of the 'Division'. However, I have listened to it and my opinion of this group has changed. The orchestration is very good, musical abitilty is far superior to their contemporaries and I would recommend it to anyone with a taste for 1980's/1990's alternative rock/electric music.

By 1982, fresh from the breakthrough success of "Girls On Film" from their self titled debut, Duran Duran unleashed "Rio," an album and song that would propel them to international stardom.
And quite rightly so, "Rio" is a brilliant album, fantastically written and musically perfect. Songs like "Hungry Like The Wolf" and "Save A Prayer," both hugely sucessful singles and videos, along with "Rio" (I think everyone knows the video for this one)Duran Duran just kept the hits coming. It's the hidden gems though within this album that make it so special, live favourite "Hold Back The Rain" and the simply sublime "The Chauffeur" make this album easily up there with the very best of the 80's. It a height that Duran Duran have never scaled ... Read More: >>More Details |

With 1980's adventurous More Specials the Coventry band overcame the 'difficult second album syndrome', a fate which has befallen many an artist over the years. They did this by broadening their musical palette; where their classic debut (effectively) embraces the ska and reggae of Prince Buster, The Skatalites and Toots and The Maytals, this album sees them venturing into a wider variety of genres, including northern soul (`Sock It To `Em J.B.'), spaghetti westerns soundtracks (`Stereotypes') and easy listening (`Enjoy Yourself (It's Later Than You Think)'). That is not to say they jettisoned all that made The Specials so exciting and different: lead singer Terry Hall still delivers his vocals with a flat, deadpan delivery and the lyrics and subject matter remain ...

I love Magazine: have all the vinyl, saw them live, own all the previous CDs, all the compilations, all the 2007 remastered discs (Virgin EU pressings, not Caroline, which is the label they've been released on in the U.S.).
When comparing tracks on the 2007 remaster with those on the "Maybe It's Right To Be Nervous Now" box set released in 2000, the tracks on the box set are vastly superior to any other release, and are closest to the original vinyl releases. The 2007 tracks sound muffled. One has to wonder what the heck happened. Suffice to say, this album is 5 stars, but the remastering drags it down to 3. If you own the box set, keep it, and don't be duped into buying the 2007 remasters. >>More Details |

I am not a massive Talking Heads fan, but I love 'Remain in Light' and got this Best-of as well to sample all of their other albums at once. However, I am suspicious that this is not a truely representative selection because the three songs from 'Remain in Light' have been so poorly selected. Surely 'Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On)' and 'Crosseyed And Painless' - absolutely monster tracks - should have taken precedence over the comparatively low-key 'Houses in Motion' and 'This Must be the Place'. Of course, 'Once in a Lifetime' is a shoe-in and appears here in all its glory. Nevertheless, it is poor decisions like this that can make a novice survey the career of a great band and say 'What was all ... Read More:

As a huge fan of U2, I don't like this compilation and never listen to it. I only bought it for the Milan DVD (which is worth it) and the booklet. I have all the songs already, obviously, but that's not why this is a bad 'Best Of'. It's because it really isn't the best of. I know that is an opinion, but I don't see how you can release something so titled and ignore almost a whole decade of a band's career. I understand this CD is for new fans who might have got into U2 just recently, but this is no way to show them what to expect. It's heavily weighted in favour of the 00s output, with the 80s following behind, and the 90s almost airbrushed out of history. It's a shame because for me, the 90s was the time of U2's best and most exciting stuff. Achtung Baby and Zooropa (and yes, Pop ... Read More:
