Reviews
- Edited 8 years agoThis Finnish compilation, released barely a year later, is largely a reshuffle of the above album with some changes (yes, they do include two key tracks by Ultravox, and Simple Minds' proto-trance "Theme for Great Cities", although in a truncated version!) and a few Nordic hits of the same era: https://www.discogs.com/Various-Modern-Dance/release/960626. My brother got a copy of that one in the mid-eighties.
I bought this lp in the early 80s at a time I bought anything British I could find. Played this album to death. Bought a new copy. Still play it.
Edited 15 years agoThe finest K-Tel album ever? This album NAILS 1981 new-ro postpunk, with the notable omission of anything by Ultravox MK II. Heavily weighted towards the Virgin Records stable (as it should be). I never owned this album as I already had everything on it (except The News - who were they?) but I admired a friend's copy.
