Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
In the days when boy bands played their own instruments, Spandau Ballet--a bunch of pretty boys from north London with kilts, shoulder pads, bad 1980s hair, eyeliner and unmistakable good looks--caused quite a stir and soon had both major record labels and teenage girls monitoring their every move. Major-league players among the New Romantic movement, the five piece lived the high life and churned out hit after hit between 1980 and 1986. This compilation features pretty much all of their offerings ("Gold", "True", "Lifeline", "Highly Strung")--some more memorable than others. Gold's sleeve notes boldly proclaim "...this is where it all began. Club culture, endless nocturnal adventures, white boys high on soul and funk-making electric dance music which moves the city." It's hard to imagine music like this doing that now--on the cover they look like a bunch of old guys in polo necks--but it was the 80s. --Ronita Dutta
Description
'Gold - The Best Of Spandau Ballet' comprises of seventeen chart hits which span their career from 1980-1986. Includes ten top ten singles alongside their more popular album tracks. 'Gold', 'Through The Barricades' and 'Chant No 1 (I Don'tNeed This Pressure On)' are all featured alongside 'True' which was the band's only no.1 single. Their sound was a fusion of new romantic pop with soul.
