CD Reviews

What you missed on US radio
Dale Tegtman | San Francisco, California USA | 04/03/2001
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Leans hard to the Europop sound of the 80s. BowWowWow, Classix Nouveaux - bands you didn't hear on US radio and won't hear about on Behind The Music. Shiny,Shiny doesn't turn up much on 80's stations, either. Enjoyable Ira Robbins editorial, too."
Good compilation for a decent price
Susan | Michigan | 12/30/2005
(4 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this 5 cd set years ago and I still get it out often. True, I wasn't familiar with all of the songs (which is strange since I was a teenager in the 80's), but there are enough great songs to justify the purchase.

Most compilations rely on the same 15 songs (yawn). This set reminds you of some songs you may have forgotten and introduces you to some you may have never heard before.

If you love the energy and the off-beat style of 80's new wave, this is a great start."
