[obs]

I have enough 80s compilations that I pretty much stick to 12" comps, unless it is a non-pop 80s, or maybe some rare stuff.

[cork]

I tend to avoid them as well.
I sort of like this one as it has Howard Jones,New Order, Echo + the bonnymen + Jesus & Mary Chain
They seem to be impulse buys.

I agree that compilations of rare tunes and 12"s are far superior.

Nothing really special but cool songs and an interesting tracklisting because it jumps all over the place. Kon Kan, Strawberry Switchblade, Nick Kamen, etc. Too bad this wasn't a 12" collection.

[NewWaveKid]

Really? No offense but how much more "80s Hits" CDs are going to be released?? And there is nothing special about these songs (dont get me wrong, I like alot of songs on here). No 7" Mixes or 12" ones, Kind of pointless [:p]
