CD Reviews

Smart Classy Pop
J. grassa | Salemi, Italy | 10/18/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is IMHO the best of heaven 17's output ever. Somewhere in between their long career they mastered the art of smooth, cool sophisticated pop. Think Spandau Ballet's Parade or True but with a bit more of an "edge". No favourite cut because every song is sublime. Do yourself a favour - give it a try."
Designing Heaven?

"This long awaited reissue of Heaven 17's third album is superb. Any album that contains a song with the energy and power of 'Sunset Now' has to be good. The fact that so much of the other material has stood the test of time so well is pleasing.



Heaven 17 were often overshadowed by the phenomenon of 'Dare' and the Human League, yet they went on to record several exceptional albums. Overall, this was probably their strongest effort, until the reformation with 'Bigger than America'. Here there songwriting skills are to the fore, as they essay various aspects of funk and soul. Glenn Gregory is a superb vocalist, and the songs are well tailored to the strengths of his voice.



A wonderfull album, definitely of it's time, that has aged gracefully. The additions to this eddition are entertaining, but not indispensable. If you are interested in Heaven 17, this is a real high poibnt in their career, and a good basis for getting to know them better."
