3.0 out of 5 stars
A good overview, but....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Super Hits (Audio CD)
This is OK, but the Romantics' true "super hits" are all found on their debut album, which completely creams any of their hits compilations. That album has the best stuff. The later songs pale in comparison.

80's Power Pop,
This review is from: Super Hits (Audio CD)
This Detroit-based band were different from a lot of new wave groups in that they never forgot rock's roots in r&b and the blues. Anyone who grew up in the 80's will remember hearing their straight-to-the-point rock, all over the radio airwaves. Led by propulsive drumming and the no-nonsence vocals of Jimmy Marinos, they left behind a legacy of great 80's power pop. This album features, as it says, their 'Super Hits', and all have been digitally remastered which is a plus and a necessity for true fans.

Try the new album ...,

This review is from: Super Hits (Audio CD)
This is actually a pretty good cross-section of the Romantics' music, because it includes songs from four of the band's five albums from 1979-1985. The song selection was pretty good for this (although there are several I would have chosen over "Do Me Any Way You Wanna" and I can't believe they left out "A Night Like This"). The band has a new album due out Sept. 9 titled "61/49." If you buy this collection, you should try the new album too, because from what I've heard of it on the band's website ..., it's a more up-to-date, full sound than much of the older stuff.
