It was so fortunate that I had been able to get my hands on this CD.Any Blow Monkeys or Dr. Robert fan knows it is difficult to get their works,especially in the US.I was able to catch up with all the years of music from 1983-1990on "Choices".This compilation is is so diverse and filled with different emotions.You can experience the changes in style from one song to the next,it's never the same.The thing so great about Dr. Robert is how he can create these fresh sounds and clever lyrics.It is definitely evident on this piece of work,and the sequence in which the songs are arranged could not have been better.The choices selected on "Choices" are also the most appropriate. I really don't think you even have to be a Blow Monkeys fan to appreciate this CD.You may not even know a thing about them nor heard a song but this is worth a listen from anyone who's just into good music. To me,this is great music,ingenious,magical,and so on but of course that is a biased opinion from a big fan.

This singel collection from The Blow Monkeys is an intellectual form fore "disco". Oh now wait a little. I will rather called it "funky disco jazz hybrid". This Cd is rear, beacause each track has their one "personality" in a way. Each track stands for it self . This very relaxable to listen too. Some jazz, some funk,some "disco", and some pop, and you get an ultimate mix of pure musical energy. But the realy greatness with this collection, exept that it is a greatest hit`s singel collection, is the atmosphere all trough. The best track on this CD is Track 1 Wait, and you can hear the longer version on Track 11. What more can i say. This is maybe "yuppie" music, but is so good to see popstars dressed up in style, in clothes or in musical style. If you had problem get you "mental motor" running when you wake up, Choises is a good Choise. This is anyaway the ultimate introducton to one of the best bands from the 80 ths . The Blow Monkeys will blow you away. If you wanna buy a new sorround system take this Cd to the Hifi Store, and it will swing your`e soul.
