I only got it for one song though, number 4 I think. It's on Pretty In Pink, and I'm kind of obsessed. But yeah, what I've listened to, I've enjoyed, and CD Universe did a great job with my order, so MWAH!! Submitted by weebledorf (Utah)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

| | Soft Cell Non Stop Ecstatic Dancing CD (1981) (Import) Germany; Remastered
Greatest Hits CD music
$11.79 Soft Cell's NON STOP ECSTATIC DANCING has been remastered and bolstered with six extra tracks.
As with so many groups of their time and place--synthesizer-obsessed England in the early '80s--Soft Cell's first album is also their best. NON-STOP EROTIC CABARET is a self-consciously seedy but nonetheless delightful excursion into knowing decadence. The artifice is plain--Marc Almond's coyly melodramatic vocals and Dave Ball's witty synths suggest that you shouldn't take this album seriously ...
| | Ultravox Lament CD (1984) (Import) Bonus Tracks; United Kingdom
Greatest Hits music CDs
$10.15 LAMENT was a 1980s-era addition to the canon of synth-pop albums from Ultravox, with the band scoring some hit singles with the upbeat "Dancing With Tears in my Eyes" and the mournful title track.
Ultravox were in a gray mood as they launched into their seventh studio album, LAMENT. With the band's previous existential angst now pooling around personal anguish, the album's title track was a study in languorous melancholy, where emotional pain lingers on and on. Even "One Small Day," the most celebratory song on the set, battles depression but dismally loses the war. No wonder Ultravox were so keen to escape into the ...
| | Spandau Ballet Through The Barricades CD (1986) (Import) Germany
Greatest Hits songs
$9.69 By the time Spandau Ballet's fifth album appeared in 1986, the sun had set on the synth poppers of the second British Invasion and guitars were all the rage once again. Never ones to miss a trend, the former new romantics -- who'd signed with a new label, Epic, and were determined to make a big splash stateside -- declared their admiration for bands like Bon Jovi and made an album that likely surprised their diminishing fan base with its AOR aspirations. Rocking up Spandau Ballet's smooth white-boy soul, Through the Barricades manages to avoid utter disaster via the tuneful creations of songwriter/guitarist Gary Kemp. ...
| | Nick Heyward North Of A Miracle CD (1983) (Import) Australia
Greatest Hits album
$10.49 NORTH OF A MIRACLE, the debut solo release from former Haircut 100 frontman Nick Heyward, features "On A Sunday" and "Club Boy At Sea."
One track already makes Nick Heyward's first solo LP after leaving Haircut 100 a must-hear. The breezy "Whistle Down the Wind" is among Heyward's most moving songs, a story of unrequited love with a "hello, hello, hope you're feeling fine" chorus that is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Heyward sings the opening lines in a whispery tone, caressing the ears with the sweetness of his voice; when the tempo builds up, the track manages to simultaneously elevate and sadden the listener. "Whistle Down the Wind" is lush, hopelessly romantic pop that may have been too subtle for Top 40 radio in 1983. Although North of a Miracle doesn't strike those highs again, it's still just as charming and catchy as Heyward's finest Haircut 100 work. "When It ...

| | Elephants Memory CD (1969)
Greatest Hits album
$11.59 This is the 1969 debut long-player from the extended Big Apple-based ensemble Elephant's Memory. As such, it should not be confused with their 1972 release on the Apple Records label, featuring John Lennon and Yoko Ono. Instead, this 11-song collection is from an earlier lineup that would, among other things, gain significant visibility for their contributions to the film Midnight Cowboy and its subsequent soundtrack (1969). Musically, the combo were multi-faceted; on the jazzy "R.I.P." and the uptempo opener, "Don't Put Me on Trial No More," they display a soulful horn-driven vibe, while "Super Heep," "Brief Encounter," and "Jungle Gym at the Zoo" are decidedly trippier and slightly reminiscent of the Electric Flag or the incipient incarnation of Al Kooper's Blood, Sweat & Tears. Incidentally, "Jungle Gym at the Zoo" and "Old Man Willow," an ethereal seven-plus minute psychedelic waltz, were chosen for the aforementioned Midnight Cowboy and even spawned Songs from Midnight Cowboy Plus Their Hit Singles (1969), an album that was little more than a profit-motivated retread to cash in on the name recognition. Two of the more ...
