Editorial Reviews

Welcome to the Playlist series. Painstakingly compiled by the artists and the music nuts at Legacy Recordings, these collections truly represent an artists' complete body of work. We've fished through hundreds-thousands-of tracks to cherry pick the perfect playlists. Not just the hits (anyone can find those). The life changing cuts. The out-of-print tracks. The fan favorites everyone loves. The songs that make the artist who they are.

You’ll no doubt enjoy the sound of the beautifully remastered songs on this CD (as opposed to MP3's that contain less information, which translate into compromised sound). But we think the thing you'll appreciate most about this Playlist is that even though you didn't make it, you might wish you did.

This collection confirmed why FOS was my favorite band back in the early 80's - every single song is the best New Wave from back in the day. A must have for every FOS fan, or any 80's music fan!

If you are looking for a good one-disc compilation for this group, this is probably the best one currently available. (The GOLD AND PLATINUM collection was really good, but it is now out of print.) The sound is good, and the track selection is hard to argue with, as it leaves out none of the biggest tunes and includes a sizeable portion of the next-best stuff. This should satisfy most casual and semi-casual fans completely; if you get this and think that you may still be missing something, grab a copy (new or used) of their debut album. Between this and that, you will cover virtually everything they did that is truly worth having.

I got in Flock of Seagulls when I was in the ninth grade and I had their first album on LP but had my record collection stolen so I been replacing my old LP's with cd's and was hppy to come across this album. They where different when they came on the rock scene and if you like new bands or looking for a new sound give them a try.
