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 review is from: Fantastic 80's Vol.1 [Double CD] (Audio CD)
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 there is no better 80s compilation, 31 Dec 2008
By N. J. Williams (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Fantastic 80s!: The Complete Collection (Audio CD)
there is no better 80s cd. period. i actually taught i was dreaming when i saw all these artists on the same boxset, and top quality songs to back em up, of course we all have favourites of the artists we would like to switch around and play with but as a radio presenter i have to say that this is the THE most comprehensive way of getting quality 80s hits together without making your own personal playlist on itunes...and even then...it would still be personal taste...whereas this box set ensures that the people who come to your party/listen to ur musical taste...will have nothing but praise for you

seriously, buy this now, u will not be disappointed!

oh and if you have played gta vice city stories then you need this!
