This review is from: Vol. 3- I Love Disco 80's (Audio CD)

Too bad the Blanco Y Negro label doesn't get more US recognition for its collections. Although euro-centric, they still contain many big US tracks that have never been on CD. Highlights this time are what must be the original Zeus B. Held mix of Alphaville (I don't have that sought after mix, but this is definitely not the 1988 remix), the 12" of "flash in the night" by Secret Service (this is the original mix, not the 1982 remix), and Toni Basil's "Over My Head in its 12" format, something I thought I'd NEVER see on CD. And wait until you hear "Harlem Desire" by the London Boys. I can't BELIEVE this track is not a Stock Aitken Waterman production. The formula is a dead ringer for a SAW production. The greatest thing about these european compilations is when you discover some fantastic new wave synth dance tracks you'd never heard before, and there are plenty of gems on here. Track times are:

2. flash in the night...secret service (6:10)
3. I go to pieces...shooting party (5:54)

8. ooh don't lose your heart tonight...silent circle (5:50)
9. get closer...Valerie dore (6:11)
10. memory...ménage (7:10)
11. imagination...vanilla (6:46)

CD.2

1. why...bronski beat (7:46)
2. new dimension (electro mix)...imagination (9:24)
3. tech-no-logical world...patrick cowley (7:45)
4. coming out of hiding...Pamela Stanley (6:12)
5. over my head...toni basil (5:02)

This review is from: Vol. 3- I Love Disco 80's (Audio CD)

this cd is better than " I love 80's vol 2",there are excellent remixes in this CD, "big in Japan", "I go to the pieces", "las manos quietas", why? (it's exceptionall!), "coming out of hiding", "over my head" and of course, " don't stop the classics" this one it's a new song for me, but what a song!

The only negative point it's the song "new dimension", it's too bad, I don't know why it is on this cd. And it takes 9:24! the other songs (except "flash in the night") are ok for its mixes.
