VH-1 tried to get FGTH back together in the first series of "Bands Reunited" in early 2004. Holly is not only alive and well, but he's as snitty as he ever was -- after leading everyone on for a week or two he declined to perform in the reunion at literally the last minute, leaving Mark, Paul, Nasher and Ped standing around in the studio.

I've always felt that Liverpool was unjustly overshadowed by the chaos in the band around the time of its release. There's nowhere near as much fluff as on Pleasuredome and some of the non-single tracks are just brilliant. Steve Lipson produced the hell out of this album and as a result it rewards deep listening by fans of the all-out ZTT production sound.

Worth Another Look November 29, 2005
Format:Audio CD
This album got short shrift once upon a long ago. FGTH made much more of a splash and had most of their commercial success with 1984's "Welcome to the Pleasure Dome," but the band came apart so quickly that many people didn't notice this 1986 effort. That's a shame, because this is a very good album. It's far more straightforward then "Pleasure Dome;" there's none of the extra-long or extra-short tracks or crazy intros and interludes that laced the first album together. The concept here focuses in from the hedonistic and apocalyptic overtones of "Dome" to the nature of man in the modern world. And `focus' is a key word; whereas the first album was all over the place stylistically, this is just eight tight, well-crafted songs with an alternative-pop sheen provided by producers Stephen Lipson and Trevor Horn. If you enjoyed "Relax" and "Two Tribes" but never gave this album a chance, you might want to reconsider. And the Bowie cover that's been added as a bonus track (if you buy the right version) is just about worth it all by itself.

Strong on its own merits March 5, 2001
Format:Audio CD
If Frankie's debut album 'Welcome to the Pleasuredome' had many high's and low's, their second and last album Liverpool was more even in quality. Liverpool is more conventional. Although it lacks hits like 'Two Tribes' and 'Relax' it neither has the space-fillers and boring chit-chat of the overlong'Welcome...'. Featuring a string of good songs, my favourites are 'Watching the Wildlife' and 'For Heaven's sake'. It would have been interesting if Frankie wouldn't have split up and too see where they would have gone from Liverpool. This album deserves a listening to anyone who likes Frankie's chart toppers.

Great but just leave some things alone ZTT!
I really like this album. I was excited to get all the remixes.... But ZTT decided to mix them all together into one remix for warriors, one remix for whatever. Read more

Over all it is a very good follow up album to Welcome To The Pleasuredome. THe band was already falling apart at the time so it never rally took off from a "hit" or "Marketing"... Read more

I wished Frankie Goes To Hollywood had made more albums! I liked Welcome To The Pleasuredome a lot. Though I could have done without the four cover tracks though. Read more

Eighties assortment
OK, everyone here is massive Frankie fan, and I also admit that the band had a great influence on me. "Welcome.." is the definitive dance album of the '80s. Read more

Very good album. I give it 4 stars because of the debut album Welcome to the pleasure dome which was more original and fresher. But this album is very underrated. Read more

Frankie say: Good stuff from essential 80's band
Okay, so this isn't another 'Pleasuredome' - but then again, how can you be expected to top such a debut? And thank God Frankie didn't try to make an album like their first one. Read more

Often forgotton but worth a listen
'Liverpool' was Frankie's follow up to 'Welcome...' but is has often been ignored. Holly Johnson said he didn't like the music and critics have accused it of being over produced. Read more
