2.0 out of 5 stars
1986 Falls Short, August 16, 2001
This review is from: Rock On: Top 40 Chartbusters 1986 (Audio CD)
After a great run of collections from 1981 to 1985, Rock On falls short with their 1986 set. The compilation is dominated by second tier acts and outside of a couple of tracks like The Thompson Twins soaring "King For A Day" and Glass Tiger's infectious "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" (Bryan Adams supplies backing vocals on this fellow Canadian's song), the rest of the album is weak. Night Ranger's "Goodbye" is okay as is Survivor's "Burning Heart" which reteams them with Sylvester Stallone as the song is from the Rocky IV soundtrack. Songs like Robbie Nevil's "C'est La Vie", Nu Shooz's "I Can't Wait", Howard Jones' "No One Is To Blame" and The Jets' "Crush On You" range from bad to putrid.

This review is from: Rock On: Top 40 Chartbusters 1986 (Audio CD)
Anyone who grew up in the eighties wil absolutely love this cd. With a variation of great hits it will really bring you back to 1986. I find myself playing this over & over again. Great hits and great artists!
