Product Description
Album Description
Electric 80s brings together the originals that have continued to influence current tracks and the ever present 80s fashion nods on three packed CDs. This is a definitive collection of the very best electronic, synth and new-wave tracks from the early years of the decade. The album is a collectors dream with original 12" versions, lesser compiled tracks and rare gems, including Soft Cell - "Torch", Human League - "Love Action" and Duran Duran - "Planet Earth".

4.0 out of 5 stars very good, but...., 18 Jul 2005
By N. Macfarlane "nicki" (Bournemouth, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This album picked up most of my fav's from the 80's, but Amazon seem to have got some of the track listing wrong, for example there is no Heaven 17 - Temptation, which was a bit of shame. Great Album never the less for all die hard 80's fans.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great selection of songs from the greatest period in music, 3 Dec 2000
By A Customer
This first volume contains some brilliant songs. If, like me, you were born at the start of the 80's, you probably wont remember half the songs on here and you might not like all you hear, but I found one or two excellent songs that made me really pleased I bought these CDs. If you remember the 80's well, this is for you. I'd definitely recommend getting all 3 volumes if you can.

5.0 out of 5 stars Electric 80s, 2 Aug 2005
By Heather Lennox "geordietyke" (Waitakere, Auckland New Zealand) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
3 CD's of well-known and not so well-known hits. Each and every one of them chartbusters. This is a great album for those who found the 80's to be the best decade of all. I found it to be fantastic, as I'd been looking for quite a few of the lesser well-known songs for quite a while.
Takes me back in time to the 80's. I love the album.
