Substance

: essential recording:It's a simple concept--the first dozen singles by New Order collected, a couple of them rerecorded--but it's also a totally entertaining seven-year history of the band that married British post-punk alienation to the relentless hedonism of the dance floor. The band's hits were always deeply unconventional (like the haunting 'Blue Monday,' essentially a seven-minute drum machine test with a short lyric that alluded to the Falklands War), but they were brilliant productions, layering dozens of electronic countermelodies and percussion tricks over Barney Sumner's uncertain warble and Peter Hook's lead bass parts. Though they're audio snapshots of the dance beats of their ...

The Wedding Singer Volume 2: More Music From The Motion Picture
(more) »rank: 3009from: Maverick
: :Is it forgivable that the second volume of songs from Adam Sandler's mid-'80s-revival comedy begins with Kajagoogoo's famously limp 'Too Shy'? Not really, but the rest of the disc does a good job of recapitulating worthy memories from the era of torn-sweatshirt necks and mulletheads--not just with new-wave novelties but with Madonna and Hall & Oates staples ('Holiday' and 'You Make My Dreams,' respectively) as bouncy and glossy as anything the also-present Depeche Mode ('Just Can't Get Enough') and Dead or Alive ('You Spin Me Round [Like a Record]') ever put on the radio or MTV. The Cars' 'It's All I Can Do' ...

The Breakfast Club: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
(more) »rank: 3599by: Keith Forsey, Keith Forsey, Gary Chang
: :Few could challenge John Hughes in 1980s teen coming-of-age flicks. This brat-pack extravaganza boasts the anthemic 'Don't You (Forget About Me)' by Simple Minds, a hit so large it vaulted them into the collective consciousness. The rest of it is more disposable. Elizabeth Daily (aka E.G.) was a kindred spirit of Pia Zadora in that people kept trying to make her famous, although in retrospect it's hard to figure out why. The Karla DeVito track 'We Are Not Alone' still wears well, although it may be because it's synonymous with some great imagery from the movie. Producer Keith Forsey went on to work ...

The Best of Howard Jones
(more) »rank: 3633by: Howard Jones
: :This is the only Howard Jones album you'll ever need. HoJo was a founder of early '80s synth-pop, which was as easy to sing to as it was to dance to. The rhythms on this record pop like new wave corn kernels in heated oil, tempered by Jones's high-strung vocals extending over the top. Jones makes good use of the bright synth piano patches available during that time, especially during 'Things Can Only Get Better.' 'No One Is to Blame' is a solid ballad, just Jones and his keyboard. It's heartfelt and regretful--a little cheesy, but in a good way. --Beth Bessmer
