Customer Reviews:
TUNEFUL TIMES!.......2003-09-05
This album kicks off with Phil Collins' neo-motown version of You Can't Hurry Love and takes the liustener on a tour through the styles and the songs that dominated the UK charts in 1982. There was a heavy soul influence back then, as demonstrated by Dexy's Midnight Runners, ABC and Robert Palmer, while synthpop was very much in fashion in the form of Human League, Soft Cell, Talk Talk, Yazoo, OMD and Kraftwerk. Layla by Derek And The Dominoes was a re-release from an earlier era, and is joined by other classic rocks tracks like Eye Of The Tiger by Survivor and Centrefold by the J. Geils Band. Culture Club's pop reggae, Eddy Grant's I Don't Wanna Dance and Madness' House Of Fun represents Jamaican music, whilst great club tracks include those by Kool And The Gang, Grandmaster Flash and Donnie Calvin. My favorites are Only You, a beautiful soulful song in Alison Moyette's incomparable voice, Maid Of Orleans, the classic by OMD, Golden Brown, a hypnotic rock ballad by The Stranglers and Annie I'm Not Your Daddy by the delightful Kid Creole And The Coconuts. Other great songs are Promised You A Miracle by Simple Minds, Celebration by U2 and the catchy Mickey by Toni Basil.
Buy this one for the U2 track alone.......2002-10-21
Of course every U2 fan already owns A Celebration, either the original single or on a bootleg CD. But this is the only officially released CD on which this track (highest position in UK charts: 47) is currently available and that makes this compilation essential. Regardless of the other songs (which other songs? what's that other disc for anyway?) I give it 5 stars
