4.0 out of 5 stars An inspired selection of quirky covers, 5 Jun 2007
Having read the reviews below I was in two minds about buying this album. I loved the last two Nouvelle Vague albums, saw a couple of good reviews in the papers over the weekend and so thought for just over a tenner I'd take a chance. I'm really glad I did and I think people are really missing the point. This is a fascinating, and on several listens, very addictive electropop journey. As Marc Collin's sleeve notes point out it is the music that inspired him to create Nouvelle vague and an excellent selection of electropop it is at that. I loved the robotic cover of Mothers Little Helper by Polyphonic Size, Comateens version of "Summer in the city" and The Slits take on "I heard it through the grapevine" is pure bassliner groove. If you like Nouvelle vague and the 80's BUY THIS RECORD.

5.0 out of 5 stars knockout, 5 Jun 2007
By Sammy (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Nouvelle Vague are just about the best band on the planet right now - innovative, quirky and as anyone who saw them last week at Sheperd's Bush Empire would testify, damn sexy too. This is a new compilation put togther by the man behind the band and concept and is full off surprises. Reviewers below have explained the idea, but I couldn't disagree more with some of the comments. This is jammed packed with very rare tracks from some equally rare bands, as well some better known new wave names - all of them covering great tracks of our time. The Elton Mortello track is actually the exception here, in that this was the original version of what became a huge international hit "Ca Plane Pour Moi" by Plastic Bertrand (drummer of Elton Motelo). Genius ! I LOVE IT !!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant, 5 Jun 2007
There simply isn't a bad track here - it absolutely reeks of je ne sais quoi, joi de vivre, and Le bruit de l'été...In an age where compilation albums are ten a penny - stand outs are few and far between. I certainly didn't expect to raving about a compilation as a potential album of the year. But by golly, I am
