1992 release, on WEA International, featuring 15 of the '80s new wave/techno/pop outfit's very best, including the hit 'Big In Japan' (original & 'Culture Mix'), plus 'Forever Young', 'Sounds Like A Melody', 'Jerusalem', & 'Dance With Me', to name a few.

FIRST HARVEST: BEST OF 1984-92 features 15 of Alphaville's greatest hits, including a remix of "Big In Japan."

First Harvest: The Best of Alphaville 1984-1992 collects 15 tracks from the Europop darlings, marking the first "real" Alphaville compilation to span the group's entire career (1988's barren Singles Collection featured only four tracks in various states of mixdown). Cut from the same cloth as Ultravox and early Depeche Mode, the band had better success in Germany than it did in the United States, but standout cuts such as "Big in Japan," "Forever Young," "Red Rose," and "Jerusalem" reside in the upper echelon of early-'80s synth pop. ~ James Christopher Monger

5 stars Sounds Like A Melody
This 1992 greatest hits collection pulls together the many major highlights from the band's first three stellar albums "Forever Young" (1984), "Afternoons in Utopia" (1986), and "Breathtaking Blue" (1989). Please note that some of the songs here are presented in their edited shorter radio versions. In fact I find the original album versions with their longer instrumental intro's and outro's more interesting (this is particularly true about the tracks such as Big in Japan, Jerusalem, and Sounds Like A Melody). Later releases included 1994's "Prostitute" and the good 1998 comeback effort "Salvation". In any case despite the relatively high import price tag, in my opinion The First Harvest is perhaps one's most efficient way of exploring the band's hit-making period of 15 to 20 years ago.

CD $12.25  5 stars Audio Samples
An enchanting debut, CocoRosie's La Maison de Mon Rêve is a dreamy yet challenging confection of found sounds, folk-blues, trip-hop, girlish pop, and experimental recording and production techniques. The Casady sisters' breathy, slightly different, but equally lovely vocals circle each other atop delicately plucked and strummed acoustic guitars, chirping birds, and fractured beats, making for a sound that is hard to define outside of its own beauty and creativity. A strong Billie Holiday influence colors the sisters' vocals, particularly on La Maison de Mon Rêve's most accessible songs, ...

We Are Family
Sister Sledge We Are Family CD  (1979)

First Harvest: Best Of 1984-92
CD $11.65  5 stars Audio Samples
WE ARE FAMILY is the canonical Sister Sledge album, containing both of the group's biggest songs; their first hit, "He's the Greatest Dancer"; and their signature anthem,"We Are Family." Produced by Chic's Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards, WE ARE FAMILY is a landmark of the late disco sound. This inexpensive budget line reissue on the Rhino Flashback label contains the full 1979 album plus four bonus tracks: two remixes each of "We Are Family" and the album's third single, "Lost In Music." Before 1979's We Are Family, Sister Sledge wasn't a huge name in the R&B/disco world. The group had enjoyed a small following and scored a few minor hits, including "Love, Don't You Go Through No Changes on Me" in 1974 and "Blockbuster Boy" in 1977. But it wasn't until We Are Family that the Philadelphia siblings finally exploded commercially, and the people they have to thank for their commercial success are Chic leaders Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards. The Rodgers/Edwards team handles all of the writing, producing, and arranging on this album; so not surprisingly, almost everything on We Are Family is very Chic-sounding. That is true of the sexy "He's the Greatest Dancer" and the anthemic, uplifting title song (both of which soared to number 1 on the R&B charts), as well as excellent album tracks like the ...
