REALLY SAYING SOMETHING is a 19-song best-of package from Fun Boy Three, a Specials spinoff, augmented by B-sides and rare tracks.

Instead of concentrating on the single versions of hits like "Our Lips Are Sealed," The Best of Fun Boy Three -- Really Saying Something includes remixed versions of nearly all of the group's best-known songs. While this is a selling point for some collectors -- after all, many of these 12" mixes have not been on CD before -- for most fans, it makes the compilation an ultimately frustrating listen, since the extended mixes and alternate versions aren't nearly as infectious as the originals. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

19 track retrospective featuring hits, 12'mixes, key album tracks, B-sides and other rarities, some ofwhich are appearing on CD for the first time or are now ex-clusively available on this set with the deletion of Connoisseur's 'best of'. CD debuts: 'Our Lips Are Sealed' (UrduVersion) & 'The Alibi' (12' Extended Version). Exclusives:'Summertime' (Extended 12' Mix), 'Funrama Theme' (Extended12' Mix) & 'The Telephone Always Rings' (12' Extended Mix).Other 14: 'Summer Of '82' (B-side), 'The Lunacy Legacy','Tunnel Of Love' (hit), 'We're Having All The Fun', etc.

Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars They Really Were Saying Something
A fine compilation from the post Specials trio. A very good underrated band, some fine arrangements and excellent production. The version of "Our Lips Are Sealed"(Urdu Version) I could do without, but the 12" versions of "Summertime" and "The Telephone Always Rings" more than make up for it. Too bad that these lunatics never actually took over the asylum, but.......

Really Saying Something
CD $9.39  5 stars
The 1980 new wave album from the dramatic English romantic movement includes "Blocks on Blocks" and "Steps." With apologies to Spandau Ballet, Ultravox, and even Duran Duran, this is the music that best represents the short-lived but always underrated new romantic movement. That's fitting, because Visage's frontman, Steve Strange, was the colorfully painted face of the movement, just as this album was its sound. Warming up Kraftwerk's ...

Produced by Elvis Costello, this self-titled 1979 debut quickly became gospel to the wave of ska then sweeping England. Infusing the catchy, jumpy music developed by artists like the Skatalites and Prince Buster a generation before them with punk's youthful disenfranchisement, bands like the Specials, the Selecter and Madness gave birth to a movement, one which strove for such noble goals as racial unity (then a particularly sore issue in Britain) and ...

The producer-centered career-overview CD set has a good enough history (as anyone who owns Back to Mono would agree), but it's always nice to see obvious candidates finally get their due, and there's no question that Trevor Horn deserves it. Conceived as a companion to a celebratory concert covering a quarter-century of hits, Produced by Trevor Horn's two discs have an understandable focus on the first ten years of his career, beginning with his epochal hit as part of the Buggles, "Video Killed the Radio Star," in retrospect as simultaneously futuristic and nostalgic as prime Kraftwerk. To say that he helped own the '80s, particularly in Europe but with plenty of American and other worldwide hits, would be an understatement -- among the many numbers featured are ABC's "Poison Arrow" and "The Look of Love," Frankie Goes to Hollywood's "Relax" and "Two Tribes," Yes' "Owner of a Lonely Heart," Seal's "Crazy" and much more besides. Later work was more sporadic in terms of commercial profile but the choices for the compilation are interesting in that light -- work with Kirsty MacColl and, semi-notoriously, Belle & Sebastian goes unmentioned, but efforts for Shane MacGowan "You're the One," a duet with Máire Brennan of Clannad, the Frames, LeAnn Rimes and Lisa Stansfield get a nod, as well as the worldwide monster hit of t.A.T.u.'s "All the Things She Said." Sequenced in a non-chronological fashion throughout, Produced by Trevor Horn's great appeal lies in how clearly it prioritizes the sonic continuities throughout his work -- a detailed, "widescreen" production that quite literally sounds sonically rich, even at its calmest, on such lovely and lower-key songs as Dollar's "Give Me Back My Heart," a legendary early hit for Horn that never made it to America. Echo and reverb can suggest vast distances, singers ...
