Question for 80's fans (ash, Raggz,...)

**glamfly** · January 17th, 2004, 06:28 AM

I'm gonna do the BMG thing again to fill out my collection/replace tapes/get the greatest hits to replace all the regular albums/etc. It's all gonna be 80's, and I have 9 chosen, so I need 3 more (you know 12 for the price of 1)...and it's between these. Obviously I know a few from each, but if anyone has any of these, and can highly recommend them, I'll probably go with it. Any insight would be helpful.
Soft Cell-the very best of soft cell
spandeau ballet-gold-the best of SB
naked eyes-the best of naked eyes
buggles-the age of plastic (not a greatest hits, but i've only heard "Video killed...")
general public-all the rage (again, not a gr. hits, at least i don't think so, but all I've heard is "tenderness" (which I love!))
level 42-level best
big country-best of big country

please give me your thoughts everyone!
Thanks.

Out of that list the three I would pick are Spandau,General Public, and Soft Cell.The Big Country album was a let down as nothing else I've heard by them even came close to "In a Big Country".

Jack Waegner. Also Michael Damian. Hell, anybody who was on a soap opera in the 80's. Patrick Swayze too. [img]wink.gif[/img]

btw, seriously speaking, Big Country's s/t wasn't bad. Also, if you are aiming for 80's discs, get Crowded House s/t. It's a great disc that won't disappoint.
