Great Collection July 11, 2000
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a superb collection of music. "Back On The Chain Gang" was the Pretenders first song after the deaths of two its memebers and it is a beautiful song. "Twilight Zone" by Golden Earring is an 80's radio classic as is "One Thing Leads To Another" by the Fixx. "The One Thing" is the song that brought the Aussie group Inxs attention in America and it remains one of their best. "She's A Beauty" was the only top ten hit for the Tubes. They made some of the most interesting music in the early 80's and they deserved more than one hit. .38 Special leave their southern-style rock for the more mainstream "If I'd Been The One". Supergroup Asia's "Don't Cry" laid the musical formula that Yes would follow for their comeback hit "Owner Of A Lonely Heart" by adding a commercial polish to progressive rock. The weak links are "Love Is A Battlefield" by Pat Benatar, "Hot Girls In Love" by Loverboy & "All The Way" by Triumph. All three released better music in '83 that could have been used here ("World Of Fantasy" by Triumph is an example), but these songs are still decent and the other music more than makes up for them. If you remember the glory days of MTV when they actually played videos, you'll remember all these songs and you'll want to add this cd to your collection.
