5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Album Ever from Telex, May 2, 2000

By	Paul Allaer (Cincinnati) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Belgian electronic music group Telex issued its second album in 1980, and with it created its lasting legacy. This reissue contains all of the original 11 tracks, each one of them a classic, including the double "A" sided single We Are All Getting Old/En Route, the (modest) hit "Euro-Vision", as well as other classics such as Tour de France (years before the Kraftwerk single of the same name), Cliche (41 seconds of brilliance), and a rousing cover of Sly Stone's Dance to the Music. The reissue also contains 10 bonus tracks, including the non-album single Soul Waves (first time ever on CD), and various B sides and obscurities (check out the instrumental track Troppical). Never again would Telex equal its mixture of electronic dance tunes, humor, sarcasm and wits as well as displayed on "Neurovision". If you can buy only one Telex CD, look no further.

4.0 out of 5 stars Yahoo -let's get bopping, November 30, 2001

By	Jeffrey J. Lyons (Pembroke, NH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Fun, fun, fun. Telex was a throughly unique band. Think of Kraftwerk and the Human League meeting Maurice Chavalier. I was pleased to find this in a relatively affordable CD. I had their material (rare as it is) on vinyl, which I purchased during the early 1980's. I was not aware of the French version of "B-Sides." I only knew the English version. That was a personal treat for me. This has a lot of the band's secondary "hits," not that they were producing Top 10 tunes every three months when they were together. It doesn't have their better known "Moscow Discow" or "Twist A Saint Tropez." But the selections here are definitive Telex.
