Biography

To Cut A Long Story Short
The first time that most Londoners heard the words Spandau Ballet was on the London Weekend Television arts programme Twentieth Century Box, in May 1980. Presented by Danny Baker, Twentieth Century Box was the place you went to for your youth culture fix.
And Baker’s programme was devoted to a new cult, The Cult With No Name, a bunch of soul boys and girls, disaffected art… Read more in Amazon's Spandau Ballet Store

Editorial Reviews

2008 two disc (CD + PAL/Region 0 DVD) edition of the '80s superstars' 'best of' collection including a bonus DVD that compiles their best videos in one place. Spandau Ballet grew out of the same New Romantic scene that spawned Duran Duran and, for awhile, the two bands had a playful rivalry that was similar to The Beatles and Rolling Stones rivalry two decades earlier. By the mid '80s, Spandau had transformed themselves into a well oiled Pop/Soul machine with hits like 'True', 'Gold', 'Only When You Leave' and others. This collection brings together their biggest hits and videos and is sure to please long-time fans....and it's bound to get those Duran boys riled up again! EMI.

She Loved Like Diamond is not actually on the CD as the Amazon list would suggest, but tracks 17 and 18 are two songs that weren't included in their description that are in fact present.

Not only do you get all of their biggest hit singles (including some not released in the United States), there's also a fantastic booklet that includes photos from each of their albums. For collectors this is a real find.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent CD+DVD greatest hits combo, March 24, 2009
This review is from: Gold: Best of (Bonus Dvd) (Audio CD)
After much confusion as to whether or not this package was going to be released (it's not even featured on the band's official site, as far as I can tell), I finally received my copy. The CD is the same version that was released in 2001, but the DVD contains all of their music videos (that I am aware of!) and has remastered audio. Picture quality is also very good. DVD is PAL Region 0.

5.0 out of 5 stars As I expected it to be!!!, April 3, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gold: Best of (Bonus Dvd) (Audio CD)
This is an amazing compilation! I have been waiting for this Videos to be available for a very long time plus the greatest hits CD, is a deal we cannot take advantage of.
The video collection offered here are the promo clips, as seen on several music channels such as MTV.
I really appreciate EMI for having this product available to everyone.
Quality is great.
