Livin' in the 80's

"If you want a cd that has rare songs on it, buy this one. There are songs on this cd that you will think you are hearing for the first time but, you will hear a song and say or think "wow, I've heard this before and I love this song". The tracks I like on the cd are; track #4, You Move Me (One Good Reason) by The Comsat Angels, track #9, Dance With Me (Extended Version) by Lords of the New Church, track #13, New York (Dance Floor Cut) by Micro Chip League, and track #14, Transdance by Night Moves. All of these songs are pretty much extended versions, and are all from the 80's. I also purchased Volumes 4 and 5 but do not have Volume 2 (limited availability), Volume 1 for some reason is not produced anymore, would love to have volumes 1 and 2 (Oh well, tomorrow's another day). The prices are very nice for this collection so go ahead and splurge and buy the three volumes that are available, you also might want to think about buying a similar collection called 'Classic Alternatives', containing more hard to find and rare alternative (and extended dance/alternative) songs. Happy Listening."

"Hardest Hits [BOX SET] [IMPORT] has volumes 3-5 at less than 25 bux here on amazon, so all you have to do is hunt down volume 2 (disc 1 was pulled off the market due to licensing reasons). Odd name for this SPG series, but I assume they mean Hardest to find on CD hits...almost entirely made up of 12" versions this is a series that will help you get rid of a load of 12" singles-and introduce you to some new wave tracks you may have missed out on back in the 80s. Track times on this volume:

1. story of love (5:39)
2. swamp thing (5:56)
3. first picture of you (5:27)
4. you move me (5:37)
5. love is shining down on me (6:09)
6. feels like heaven (3:31)
7. goodbye yesterday (6:26)
8. heartbeat like thunder (5:45)
9. dance with me (5:50)
10. Tokyo streets (4:42)
11. baby jude (5:05)
12. cccan't you see (8:11)
13. new york (5:07)
14. transdance (4:57)"
