Product Description

Amazon.ca

In the days when boy bands played their own instruments, Spandau Ballet--a bunch of pretty boys from north London with kilts, shoulder pads, bad 1980s hair, eyeliner and unmistakable good looks--caused quite a stir and soon had both major record labels and teenage girls monitoring their every move. Major-league players among the New Romantic movement, the five piece lived the high life and churned out hit after hit between 1980 and 1986. This compilation features pretty much all of their offerings ("Gold", "True", "Lifeline", "Highly Strung")--some more memorable than others. Gold's sleeve notes boldly proclaim "...this is where it all began. Club culture, endless nocturnal adventures, white boys high on soul and funk-making electric dance music which moves the city." It's hard to imagine music like this doing that now--on the cover they look like a bunch of old guys in polo necks--but it was the 80s. --Ronita Dutta

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Spandau Ballet Collection!!! Jun 7 2004
By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
To describe in one word - "PERFECT".

If you do not have all their albums, or you are new to Spandau Ballet (SB), this is a good collection to start with.

For post-SB songs, you may want to consider Tony Hadley's (SB's lead singer)solo albums. Tony has one of the best voices of the 80s.

4.0 out of 5 stars addictive tones Mar 29 2004
By Brian Wallace (Co-author of It's Not Your Hair)
Format:Audio CD
All things considered, this band put out some entertaining stuff in their day. One was able to look past the tailored suits and perfect haircuts to get some quality tunes.

For distinguished and timeless eighties music, this one's a good buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a surprise!
I'm not a real fan of these compilation-style of CD's. Most of the 'Greatest Hits' have barely 4 great songs, and the other 6 to 12 have been put ther to fill the space. Read more

To Create a collection of their music is not a good idea because their style is very absurd, as their jackets. Read more
