The 80s was the decade of the 12 inch. In the UK, all previous instalments of this series sold extremely well and received widespread critical acclaim. The Guardian called the series a "genuine act of music archaeology". From the pop dance genius of Frankie Goes To Hollywood's Relax and Donna Summer's I Feel Love through to the more alternative Lullaby by The Cure, and onto classics such as Teardrops by Womack & Womack... This 3CD compilation has it all, in its full 12" glory.
This set was a pleasant surprise, and all of the music is out-of-sight, if you lived through the 1980s and remember this era of awesome music, and the 12" versions. For me, I am in my late 50s now, but the 1980s were my favorite decade for
rock. And the '60s come in a close 2nd. followed by the 70's and the 50s. Note: a couple selections are from the late 70s.
I was really surprised the selections don't show up so here they are:
