Whether you're 'mature' enough to remember fresh-faced, Elvis-style Cliff in his first appearance on early music TV show 'Oh Boy' or whether (like me) even your parents don't remember that swinging performance of 'Move It', any Cliff fan in their right mind (OK, so that narrows it down a bit!) should own this album. From the stunning 'Phantom of the Opera' duet with Sarah Brightman, to the pop-tastic 'Wired for Sound' (gotta love those specs), you wont be disappointed by what you hear. The quintessential 80's Cliff. Play it in the car and you'll be humming 'It's so funny...' all day long. Enjoy.

This collection contains all except one (a re-recording of Living doll made for charity) of Cliff's UK top twenty hits during the period 1979 to 1988, which was a very successful period in Cliff's career. The tracks include True love ways (with the London Philharmonic Orchestra), Suddenly (with Olivia Newton John), She means nothing to me (with Phil Everly) and All I ask of you (with Sarah Brightman).
Of the solo tracks here, We don't talk anymore (a UK number one hit in 1979 - the oldest track here) and Mistletoe and wine (a Christmas song and a UK number one hit in 1988 - the newest track here) are the most famous but there are many other great songs including Dreaming, Some people and My pretty one.
Of course, the committed fans will (if they can afford it) already have the six-CD singles boxed set and the more recent Duets part-compilation. Between them, they contain everything that you'll find here, but for those who are less committed, this compilation fairly represents the period covered.
Cliff had a few minor hits during the eighties that aren't included but this is a fine collection, proving that Cliff was able to adapt his music to appeal to a new generation of fans.
If you enjoy Cliff's music of the eighties and aren't bothered about (or already have) his other music, you'll love this set. If you buy this together with 40 golden greats (covering his earlier music), you'll have the majority of Cliff's hits from his first thirty years of music.

Private Collection 1979-1988
Contains some of Cliffs best music of that time with unexpected duets. Good value for money. Something I can play many times and thoroughly enjoy. Very good compilation.

Private Collection
I have found this to be a very good collection but I found that several hits from the original record have been ommitted which is a shame as they were good tracks!
