CD ReviewsLong overdue comfortablynumb3 | Titusville, Fl United States | 06/11/2001 (5 out of 5 stars) "Those few of us who know who Taxxi was, have waited a long time for this CD. For years, we have been looking in used record stores for this music. Many of us wrote to Fantasy Records asking them to put Taxxi on CD. Finally it is here. There's nothing new on this release so those of you who know what this is will love it. It is the best of their first three records; Day For Night, States Of Emergency and Foreign Tongue. Music from their fourth record (Expose)is absent since it was an MCA release. If you were a Taxxi fan, buy it!" Finally Taxxi on CD!! Sheryl A. Wallace | West Chester, OH United States | 04/05/2003 (4 out of 5 stars) "I was shocked to find this awesome collection in the used CD bin at my favorite audio store. A must for any 80's non-conventional listener. Taxxi created and fused rock and techno pop delicously. I have to agree that the production was a tad weak in regards to keyboards. Was surprise that Metro b.d was not on there or Lipstick.... but a great CD overall. Sherry." Weak synth gregjkrueger@webtv.net | West Allis, Wisconsin USA | 01/29/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "After waiting so many years to hear some of my favorite songs by Taxxi on CD it sounded different. The bass was great, but I couldn't bring out the synth.It was as if some idiot mixer put it way back in the background.If I were Colin Payne I'd be steaming. Nevertheless who can complain, at least some of their catolog is out. Its minus a few of their best like Metro Boulet Dodo, however I don't have a wife to dance naked to it anyway as yet.Also, I Remember, another emotional song. Also Gold Digger, another jewel. The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter, breaks my heart still and is on this compilation as some others.Definately worth getting as early 80's dance music.Maybe a little too raw for airplay as Nite City was more so.This is a guys disc from the beginning of New Wave in America.Too bad it had to end.Lets hope their back catalog comes out and the mixer from this production takes a hike.
