Greatest Hits of the 80's

Search: Ultravox - Vienna
by: Various Artists

Release Date July 12, 2004
There are a good amount of songs on this 3 disc box set a total of 54 songs.

Some of the songs are the remix type songs with extended intro which is disappointing ,

The set needs more of the 80's classic songs, there is no Frankie Goes to Hollywood but Paula Abdul and Ashford & Simpson make an appearance.

The album has Madness singing Uncle Sam which wasn't one of their biggest songs, the CD's also include a song from Blondie and a song from Deborah Harry, which is bit like having Culture club and then have a song by Boy George.

All in all a disappointing 80's set, no classics and I'm sure if I had looked harder I would of found better.

The Edge of the Eighties

Search: Ultravox - Vienna
by: Various Artists

Release Date March 31, 2008
Um, my wife bought me this, the Edge Of The 70's and the Mix Tape one for our wedding anniversary this week, mainly due to being of a certain age, I guess, oh and having a massive obscure 80's music collection - I've been collecting since 1978 when I was 12.

I must say a lot of the tracks on this CD are hardly "on the edge" - Tears For Fears? Visage? Landscape? The Cure? Ultravox's "Vienna"? However, there are some surprising cuts on here. It's nice to see that B-Movie finally get on one of these complilations, hopefully Steve Hovington and the boys can finally make a bit of money. They were one of the truly great "undiscovered" bands of the new romantic era. That's the thing with the 80's for every Thompson Twins, Duran ... Read More:

Ashes To Ashes

Search: Ultravox - Vienna
by: The Soundtrack

Release Date March 17, 2008
One of the many strengths of Ashes To Ashes, along with its predecessor Life On Mars, is the use of music from the period in which the drama is set, perfectly capturing the 'feel' of that moment in time and giving extra impact and meaning to the action on the screen. The music on the soundtrack ranges from hits that are still very well known today such as Duran Duran's 'Girls On Film' and 'Let's Stick Together' by Bryan Ferry to songs that may not have been familiar to some of the Ashes To Ashes audience but have been a real pleasure to discover, such as the fabulous 'Staring At The Rude Boys' by The Ruts. The soundtrack features a good cross-section of both, many of which will bring images from the series straight back to mind - Gene and Alex ... Read More:

Top of the Pops (TOTP) - The 80s

Search: Ultravox - Vienna
by: Various Artists

Release Date February 25, 2008
I found this box set on tv and bought it the next day. It has been really good listening to all the old 80's tracks. It is full of all those tracks you hear on the radio and recognise and miss hearing. My daughter will not admit to listening to what she describes as 'wrinkly songs' but it is amusing to hear her sing along.
Well worth buying if you enjoy listening to songs with real catchy lyrics that are easy to understand
