By Colin Mccartney TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
...still no Depeche Mode though - which was many people's criticism of volume 1 of this otherwise excellent series. Nevertheless this is for me an even stronger compilation than that.

So, we DO get Kraftwerk, Paddy McAloon, Trevor Horn, Tangerine Dream, David Bowie, David Sylvian, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Thomas Dolby - to name but eight. There are (again mirroring vol. 1) some inspired selections too - The Stranglers "Golden Brown", Wham's "Everything She Wants" and "When Love Breaks Down" by Prefab Sprout - not what anyone would call definitive electronic records but, they fit in with the compilers' apparent aim of educating and entertaining. Check, for example, "Beatbox" by The Art of Noise - the track that, rumour has it, sent Kraftwerk back into the studio to re-record their already delayed "Electric Cafe" LP. Then there's Freeez's "IOU" - produced by Arthur Baker at around the same time he was producing New Order's "Confusion" and a much better record than the latter - probably because on "IOU" the participants remembered to write a song.

Gripes? Well at this price it's difficult to grumble BUT...two Frankie Goes To Hollywood tracks, effectively back-to-back allowing for changing between discs 1 and 2, is one too many. Duran Duran's "Save a Prayer" - an influence on electronic music undoubtedly, but it's not on here, instead it's "Hungry Like The Wolf" (hmmm...). Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes" is not a song I would have owned but for this either. The sound quality's a bit tinny - like it's been mastered from an MP3 or something. And then there's some sort of IPod advert in the booklet - I hate that type of stuff.

But really I'm nitpicking. Music the quality of "Forbidden Colours", "Souvenir", "The Model", "Love On A Real Train" more than makes up for any shortcomings. After all, this will be one of the rare opportunities I will get to play music I love, and my guests will at least tolerate, at this year's Christmas party. Try as I might, Wolfgang Voigt's Freiland Klaviermusik still empties the house.

I had bought the first album in the Electronic 80s series and was thrilled to hear they were bringing out a second installment. Well folks, the Ministry of Sound haven't disappointed! From Duran Duran to Scritti Politti, you have in your hands some of the greatest hits from the New Wave/synthpop era. Buy it and enjoy!

Very Good Album 28 Nov 2010
By Jez1972
Format:Audio CD
I have to agree with the review below this one its a great album but Depeche Mode are still missing that said I have both of these CD's and they are two of Ministry Of Sounds' best although I have so many of them...As I listened to this my childhood memories came flooding back with such great artists as Human League, Eurythmics and Ultravox it's hard to find any fault in this if you love 80's music then this is best compilation out there, my fave tracks on here have to Dancing With Tears In My Eyes and Beatbox ideal album for a Christmas party or if you fancy a nostalgia trip and try to remember what you were doing when you first heard these songs

Missed Opportunity.
It's a bit odd there's no Depeche Mode on either volumes. Also, surprised by no Soft Cell on this one. Memorabilia, Torch or Say Hello, Wave Goodbye would have sounded great. Read more

Hope theres a volume 3!!
As good as volume one, theres a few gems on here, notably Ghosts (Japan),Golden Brown (The Stranglers), and The Word Girl (Scritti Politti). Love it, roll on volume 3!!
