Although there's nothing particularly out of the ordinary of Pure 80's, it nevertheless is a good, basic collection of 20 new wave hits, highlighted by such classics as "Hungry Like the Wolf," "Our House," "Relax," "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)," "Video Killed the Radio Star," "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," and Soft Cell's timeless reworking of "Tainted Love." ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

| | Electric Light Orchestra Elo II CD (1973) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Expanded Edition
Pure 80'S CD music
$7.59 Electric Light Orchetra Part II: Pete Haycock (vocals, guitar, bass); Eric Troyer (vocals, keyboards); Neil Lockwood (vocals); Bev Bevan (drums, percussion, background vocals).
Electric Light Orchestra/Electric Light Orchestra, Part II: Wilfrid Wilson Gibson (violin); Richard Tandy (Moog synthesizer); Michael d'Albuquerque (bass guitar); Colin Walker, Jeff Lynne, Mike Edwards , Roy Wood, Bev Bevan.
It's an often-forgotten fact that the Electric Light Orchestra was originally conceived as a side project. Following the orchestrated hard rock of the group's final two albums, LOOKING ON and MESSAGE FROM THE COUNTRY, the Move--Roy Wood, Jeff Lynne and Bev Bevan--decided to further explore this arena with a more classically oriented album under the pseudonym the Electric Light Orchestra. This album was a commercial flop and Wood left to form the more experimental Wizzard. Lynne and Bevan bagged the Move and made ELO their primary endeavor.
This is a transitional album not unlike the Move's LOOKING ON. Like that album, ELO II consists of five very lengthy tracks evenly roughly split between Lynne's Beatlesque pop-rock and classically inspired orchestral interludes, featuring a conceptually obvious cover of "Roll Over Beethoven." Lynne would combine the two more effectively in the future, but ELO II is an interesting stepping stone on that more commercially viable path.
Cut during the summer and fall of 1972, ELO 2 was where Jeff Lynne started rebuilding the sound of the Electric Light Orchestra following the departure of Roy Wood from the original lineup. It was as personal an effort as Lynne had ever made in music, showcasing his work as singer, songwriter, guitarist, sometime synthesizer player, and producer, and it is more focused than its predecessor but also retains some of the earlier album's lean textures. Lynne, drummer Bev Bevan, bassist Michael d'Albuquerque, and keyboardist Richard Tandy comprise the core of the band, with two cellists and a violinist sawing away around them. There were holes in the sound that made the group seem somewhat ragged, as on the pounding "In Old England Town (Boogie No. 2)"; Lynne's singing would also have to develop, and some of the material also showed the need of an editor. On the other hand, "From the Sun to the World (Boogie No. 1)" was a succinct progressive rock workout, and "Kuiama" was a ...
| | Unit F Hollow City CD (2000)
Pure 80'S music CDs
$13.95 A journalist once asked Public Enemy leader Chuck D why he had someone as goofy as Flavor Flav on board -- why did a group with such serious socio-political messages employ someone who acted like a buffoon? And Chuck replied that Flav's goofy personality was exactly why Public Enemy needed him: he made the controversial rap group more entertaining and thus, helped bring its messages to a larger audience. Unit F isn't a rap group -- Hollow City is alternative rock with strong punk and thrash metal influences -- but like Public Enemy, the Southern California band knows how to effectively combine a socio-political agenda with a healthy sense of humor. While Unit F's lyrics can be quirky and entertaining at times, the rockers have no problem getting serious messages across. On this generally solid CD Unit F rails against everything from corporate America ("Mr. Machine") to the Christian rite ("Snew" and "Jesus in Spaghetti"). The lyrics aren't necessarily anti-religion, but they are definitely anti-conformity and make it clear that Unit F has no love of the far-right Patrick Buchanan/Pat Robertson/Jerry Falwell crowd. The disturbing "Daddy Don't" addresses the subject of child abuse, while "My Baby Barfed" warns against the dangers of excessive alcohol consumption. You may or may not agree with Unit F's views on U.S. foreign policy ("Salvador BBQ"), but then, one doesn't have to agree with all of the band's politics to realize that Hollow City has a lot going for it musically. ~ Alex Henderson
Hollow City is the stunning new debut album by the Orange County based Unit F who manage to blend old school punk roots with aggressively intense metal tinged hard rock with psychotic, death pop stylings.Produced by legendary veteran Ron Goudie (Gwar, TSOL, Channel 3, Agent Orange, Mojo Nixon, Christian Death), Hollow City is a ...
