1	Millennium: 80's New Wave Party (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Millennium: '80s New Wave Party, the final installment in Rhino's five-disc series Millennium Party, basically recycles 20 hits available in the label's extensive new wave series Just Can't Get Enough, but it does so in style. Like other volumes in the series, New Wave Party contains nothing but genre classics, the songs everybody knows. In this ... see all copies from $8.88! new only from $8.88!
2	VH1: I Love the '80s (2004) more music like this by Various Artists Released at the same time as its sister compilations, I Love the '70s and I Love the '90s, I Love the '80s is another spinoff set from one of VH1's most popular nostalgia fests. Again, these compilations aren't attempting to be definitive in any way. That's more evident in I Love the '80s than I Love the '70s and I Love the '90s, since there's an ... see all copies from $6.59! new only from $10.76!
3	I Want My 80's Box (2001) more music like this by Various Artists 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 ... see all copies from $31.88! new only from $31.88!
4	Madness [1983] (1983) more music like this by Madness Madness is a U.S. compilation released to capitalize on the success of "Our House." Aside from handful of earlier singles like "Night Boat to Cairo, " "It Must Be Love, " "Cardiac Arrest," and "House of Fun, " the collection's real focus is on material from the previous year's Madness Present the Rise and Fall, which wasn't released in America. ... see all copies from $2.65! new only from $49.95!
5	Gold: '80s British (2007) more music like this by Various Artists If you're a die-hard Anglophile with a deep love for early-'80s new wave, the odds are pretty good that you already have most of the tracks on Gold: '80s British, a chronologically sequenced two-disc set that doesn't reach Howard Jones -- er, 1985 -- until the latter half of the second disc. And, even though Hip-O reaches out to many labels not ... see all copies from $17.79! new only from $17.79!
6	Ultimate Collection (2000) more music like this by Madness Inevitably, if one calls one's compilation Ultimate Collection, you're going to have some smug journalist replying, "Ultimate collection? I think not." Then again, Madness chalked up quite an impressive list of hits, and even at a generous 19 tracks, this album couldn't fit them all. So then it's down to choices. Chart placement obviously wasn't a ... see all copies from $13.34! new only from $13.34!
7	Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's, Vol. 10 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists The tenth volume of Just Can't Get Enough: New Wave Hits of the 80's isn't as consistent as some, yet better than many others. In fact, it seems better than many of its peers because its best songs are fantastic. And those are some timeless singles -- Adam Ant's "Desperate but Not Serious," the Human League's "(Keep Feeling) Fascination," the Jam ... see all copies from $11.96!
8	MTV Class of 1983 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists The double-disc MTV Class of 1983 attempts to distill the essence of early MTV to 30 tracks from the biggest names and most popular one-hit wonders of that year. The approach works remarkably well, as the compilation features many new wave classics that effortlessly evoke 1983. The sheer size of MTV Class of 1983 distinguishes it from other new ... see all copies from $20.00!
9	Ultimate New Wave Party 1998 (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Ultimate Dance Party 1998 is an entertaining, continuous-mix party album that features such new wave classics as the Romantics' "What I Like About You," Billy Idol's "Dancing With Myself," Modern English's "I Melt With You," Soft Cell's "Tainted Love," Blondie's "Heart of Glass," the Cars' "Just What I Needed," David Bowie's "Let's Dance," ABC's ... see all copies from $3.98! new only from $11.06!
10	Chart Toppers: Rock Hits of the 80s (1998) more music like this by Various Artists Priority's Chart Toppers series is an excellent budget-line collection, offering a strong selection of 15 original hits, grouped by a specific theme and decade, on each disc. Chart Toppers: Rock Hits of the 80s combines new wave, ska revival, album rock, power pop, prog rock, and pop/rock hits -- an eclectic bunch, to say the least, but the ... see all copies from $7.07! new only from $10.79!
11 view cover	Geffen Vintage 80s, Vol. 1 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.95! new only from $3.95!
12 view cover	Divine Madness (1992) more music like this by Madness This U.K.-only collection attempts to condense the band's career onto a single disc -- from the early singles to 1985's Mad Not Mad. Though the two distinct periods lead to a somewhat disjointed listen, the chronological sequencing works as an adequate career survey, and the offering of the non-LP tracks "Driving in My Car" and "(Waiting) For the ... see all copies from $19.95!
13 view cover	Heavy Heavy Hits (1999) more music like this by Madness see all copies from $15.66!
14 view cover	Total Madness: The Very Best of Madness (1997) more music like this by Madness Since Geffen doesn't possess the rights to the bulk of Madness's best, most influential work, Total Madness: The Very Best of Madness isn't the definitive compilation it could have been. Instead of drawing heavily on their early ska singles, Total Madness relies on the latter-day albums Keep Moving and Mad Not Mad, as well as adding three cuts ... see all copies from $8.74! new only from $9.00!
15 view cover	Utter Madness (1986) more music like this by Madness Picking up where Complete Madness left off, this collection includes all of the key singles from 1982 to 1986. A good collection, though listeners will probably be better served by simply sticking to Rise and Fall for a representation of this period. Chris Woodstra, All Music Guide see all copies from $10.21!
16 view cover	Sedated in the Eighties, Vol. 3 (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Direct competitor with the excellent Living in Oblivion set, Vol. 3 of the Sedated in the Eighties series does a fine job of consolidating 70 minutes of pop artifacts that will never ride the airwaves again. Any compilation kicked off by the classic Plimsouls nostalgia trip "A Million Miles Away" is headed in the right direction. Next stop shows ... see all copies from $9.00!
17 view cover	Retro Lunchbox: Squeeze the Cheese (1997) more music like this by Various Artists Retro Lunchbox: Squeeze the Cheese is a resonably entertaining budget-line collection of new wave and post-new wave hits from the mid-'80s, featuring such hits as "Our House," "I Wanna Be a Cowboy, " "Saved By Zero, " "Everybody Have Fun Tonight, " "One Night in Bangkok, " "Sex (I'm A...)" and "Perfect Way." It isn't a comprehensive collection -- ... see all copies from $4.45!
18	Rock On, 1983: Sweet Dreams (1999) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $20.73!
19 view cover	The Business (1992) more music like this by Madness Madness's first box set is a well-annotated three-CD gathering of every single A-side, B-side, and 12" bonus cut that the Nutty Boys unleashed throughout their original 1979-1986 lifespan, bolstered by a clutch of radio jingles and flexi-disc-only cuts that render this both the definitive portrait of Britain's most consistent hitmakers of their ... see all copies from $18.99!
20 view cover	18 Modern Rock Classics from the 80's (1996) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $3.98!
21 view cover	Frat Rock: The '80s (1995) more music like this by 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 ... see all copies from $2.35!
22 view cover	Pop & Wave, Vol. 3 (1993) more music like this by Various Artists Sony International's Pop & Wave, Vol. 3 collects two discs' worth of poppy new wave tracks by some of the biggest names as well as some one-hit wonders and very obscure groups too. If the two discs were boiled down to one it would be an incredibly strong collection, but even as it is with a bit of filler included, the collection has some of the ... see all copies from $49.26!
23 view cover	TJ's Popular One Hit Wonder Party Tunes (2000) more music like this by Karaoke TJ's series of karaoke discs contain low-budget knock-off covers, each of which contains full vocal performances, so you'll be singing along with soundalikes -- as opposed to going it alone with instrumentals and a lyric booklet. TJ's Popular One Hit Wonder Party Tunes contains versions of Dexy's Midnight Runners' "Come on Eileen," the Partridge ... see all copies from $5.78! new only from $5.78!
24 view cover	Platinum 80s (2002) more music like this by Various Artists The two-disc Platinum 80s is one of those ultra-inclusive packages that has a little something for everyone. It's too scattershot and random to be recommended without hesitation, but it makes for a good impulse purchase -- especially if you're looking to own several of these songs to begin with. It's a mess: the people who come to it in order to ... see all copies from $29.66! new only from $29.66!
25 view cover	Sounds of the Eighties: 1983 (1994) more music like this by Various Artists In addition to Rolling Stone-affiliated volumes and assorted condensed variations on the same theme, Time Life's Sounds of the Eighties series also spawned year-specific discs, each of which takes a fairly broad swipe at mainstream hits with little concern for stylistic cohesion. The 1983 installment features the Fixx's "One Thing Leads to Another ... see all copies from $7.95! new only from $7.95!
