Editorial Reviews

Twenty five years ago a virutally uknown band caused more controversy and discord with their debut single than any other infamous band before them. When Radio 1 DJ Mike Read banned Relax , no one could have possibly imagined the notoriety and fame that Frankie Goes To Hollywood would create. Or that the Mike Read episode was just the beginning. FGTH burst onto the music scene and became a pheonomena that no one has since matched.

The follow-up Two Tribes pushed the boundaries even further, now adding a political angle to their manifest and a video that made it onto the TV listings pages. The Power of Love and Welcome To The Pleasuredome enforced upon their peers that they had the songwriting and instrumental skills that had so far been eclipsed by their attitude and non conformist performances.

Frankie Say Greatest is the greatest of Greatest Hits packages. This double CD package includes the most popular remixes and rare b-sides captures the flavour and excitement this band had upon the music scene. Re-workings of classic tracks such as Ferry Cross The Mersey , Get it On and Suffragette City are listed alongside Relax , Two Tribes , Rage Hard , Born To Run and Warriors Of The Wasteland . Universal. 2009.

This review is from: Frankie Say Greatest (2 CD Special Edition) (Audio CD)

For a group that only released two albums, the compilations continue to come spotlighting the enormous impact the group had in the short existence. This 2 CD contains the hits and remixes and for someone who has previous best of's, it's great to have it all in one package along with rarities.
