Released in 2006, this 13-track collection cherry picks the finest songs from Electronic's first three albums. While the Britpop duo of Johnny Marr (the Smiths) and Bernard Sumner (New Order) never reached the brilliance of their other bands' earlier work, the pair did craft a number of enjoyable dance-pop singles, including the vibrant "Getting Away with It" (with the Pet Shop Boys' Neil Tennant), the breezy title track, and the shuffling "Second Nature," all of which are available on this fittingly concise, well-selected compilation.
Electronic: Johnny Marr , Bernard Sumner.
Recording information: 1991 - 2000.
Q (p.154) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "First single 'Getting Away With It' charmed a nation...and 'Feel Every Beat' saw Sumner deliver the campest rap ever..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.131) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "Later and more rocked-up material includes 'For You' and 'Forbidden City', both gems in anyone's canon." Get The Message: The Best Of Electronic Music Get The Message: The Best Of Electronic Songs Get The Message: The Best Of Electronic Review

Get The Message: The Best Of Electronic
$37.45 
Recorded between 1978 & 2001. Includes liner notes by Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, and Johnny Black.
A remarkable four-disc set of B-sides and rarities, JOIN THE DOTS serves as a sort of alternate history for the Cure, one of the world's most beloved post-punk/alt-rock bands. Painstakingly compiled by Cure frontman (and the group's only constant member) Robert Smith, DOTS provides dozens of glimpses into the literal flip-side of their singles by collecting many long-lost tracks, including the classic songs previously featured only on the cassette version of STARING AT THE SEA: THE SINGLES.
Disc one begins in the late 1970s and consists of early tracks that show the Cure in a wildly adventurous mode--tearing ...

| | David Lee Roth Eat 'Em And Smile CD (1986)
Get The Message: The Best Of Electronic
$9.69
After David Lee Roth's shocking split from Van Halen at the height of the group's popularity, all parties involved resorted to a media-fueled circus of mudslinging. Roth's first post-V.H. project was to be a motion picture (CRAZY FROM THE HEAT) which never got off the ground. But Roth had already assembled a killer solo band, including ex-Frank Zappa guitarist Steve Vai, ex-Talas bassist Billy Sheehan, and ex-Maynard Ferguson drummer Gregg Bissonette, to record songs for the movie's soundtrack. Instead of scrapping the tracks, he incorporated them into his first solo album, 1986's EAT 'EM AND SMILE.
SMILE remains Roth's best solo work. His hard-rocking band ...
| | Shout: The Very Best Of Tears For Fears CD (2001)
Get The Message: The Best Of Electronic
$11.99
Digitally remastered by Suha Gur (Universal Mastering Studios-East).
British duo Tears for Fears debuted in the age of New Romantic synth-pop, and while their early output did share some superficial elements with the likes of Simple Minds, OMD, et al, they were always master craftsmen first and foremost, in terms of both songwriting and production. SHOUT: THE VERY BEST OF TEARS FOR FEARS kicks off with such early hits as "Pale Shelter," "Change," and "Mad World," which array the requisite early-1980s layers of synthesizers in such an artful way that one would be forgiven for regarding TFF as the Beach Boys of electro-pop.
It didn't take long for Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal to transcend the genre, though, and elegant melodic pop gems "Head Over Heels" and "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" are lush, timeless classics more akin to the contemporaneous works of, say, Prefab Sprout. Unsurprisingly, Tears for Fears survived well ...
