Like, Omigod! The '80s Pop Culture Box (Totally)
(2002)

by
Various Artists
Rock criticism has two schools of thought regarding the '80s. One complains that it was all crass, commercial crap, breathing a sigh of relief that we made it through that dreck (thanks to IRS, SST, jangle pop, college rock, and hardcore punk, of course). The other celebrates the album as "cheesy" fun, full of naïve, silly singles; bad haircuts; ...

While perusing the track listing on Rhino's double-disc Billboard #1s: The '80s, you may ask yourself: "Were all 30 of these songs really number one hits? I mean, I know that Mick Jagger's 'Just Another Night' wasn't that big of a hit, and I've never even heard this Joe Walsh song, 'A Life of Illusion'! These can't be number ones on the Hot ...

Released more or less in conjunction with MTV's 20th anniversary in 2001, this triple gatefold sleeve set ( not a box as the title implies), with an appropriately gaudy 27-page book, delivers 42 typical examples of songs associated with the music channel in its fledgling years. With 35 Top Ten tracks, ten of which topped the charts, there's no ...

Volume 4 of Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's was for the new wave diehards -- Volume 5 is for the doubters.

That doesn't mean that everything here is terrific, or every listener will like everything here, but it ...

VH1: The Big 80's
(1996)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
Halfway through the '90s, the programmers of VH1 realized there was a whole audience that hungered for the great videos of the '80s -- not only new wave refugees, but a generation of younger fans to whom the sounds of the early '80s were as classic as the British Invasion. So VH1 invented The Big '80s, a show that specialized in '80s videos. Once ...

Tommy Tutone
Collectables reissued Tommy Tutone's first two albums, Tommy Tutone and Tommy Tutone 2, on this 1997 CD.

Frat Rock: The '80s

Various Artists
The '70s editions of the Frat Rock series concentrated on album-rock crossover hits. Frat Rock: The '80s is more schizophrenic. Most of the disc concentrates on new wave hits like Madness' "Our House," Adam Ant's "Goody Two Shoes," Devo's "Whip It," Stray Cats' "Rock This Town," and Tommy Tutone's "867-5309/Jenny Jenny," but it also has album-rock ...

Collectables' The Ultimate Hits of the 80's pretty much ignores large portions of what was going on in the 1980s. You will find no rap here, or any black music at all, save the Pointer Sisters. Hair metal is represented only by Quiet Riot's "Cum on Feel the Noize." There is not much new wave apart from the Psychedelic Furs' "Love My Way." The ...

Tommy Tutone
The band's breakthrough features the unforgettable "867-5309/Jenny" and its lesser follow-up, "Which Man Are You" along with a batch of similar sounding originals. Tommy Tutone-2 is consistently fun, hard-driving, working-class power-pop that was unfortunately overshadowed by the smash hit single. Chris Woodstra, All Music Guide

Living in the '80s features a selection of ten random songs from the Columbia/Epic vaults. "'80s" doesn't necessarily mean new wave, although there is some new wave here, albeit usually in some smoothed-over, arena rock incarnation. It also doesn't mean just the early or mid-'80s, even though that's where it concentrates. Instead, it's just a ...

It is a unique strategy that brings some interesting songs to light and makes for good listening. Hits of 1982 breaks from the formula a ...
