CD Reviews

Fantastic!

Victoria Fletcher | New England | 04/09/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Not getting into a review of the show itself (which is fantastic and if it comes to these American shores, everyone should watch it) but this soundtrack is a fantastic collection of 80s music from the earlier part of the decade. Unlike a lot of 80s collections which have the same songs we've heard a billion times from Culture Club, Flock of Seagulls, etc. this truly good music that if you have seen the show know matches perfectly. But even if you've never seen the show you can't beat a collection like this with music by more popular acts like David Bowie and the Clash, alongside lesser known but just as good tracks from ultravox, Flying Lizards and Joe Jackson. Its a great nostalgia kick for those who remember it, and for people who love 80s music pick this up... and watch the show."
