Good evening to all the 20th century retro heads.
This is just a post to alert all you wonderful people to the BuzzJack curated compilations project that myself, gooddelta and awardinary have undertaken. The launch thread just went live in the Pop forum. We'd love your support and feed back as we progress. http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=268087 This post has been edited by King Rollo: 12th April 2024, 09:57 AM |

Hope you don't mind but I'm popping a copy of the 1989 one in here as well as I think maybe a potentially different set of people will see it here than in pop.

Great idea to post it here, Dandy. Thanks
Are we to assume that anything on Disc 4 is disliked by you? Of course, I will judge your sequencing in the manner that I judge sequencing on Now compilations  QUOTE(dandy* @ Dec 30 2023, 06:23 PM)  Disc 1 16 Erasure - Drama 17 Boy Meets Girl - Waiting For a Start To Fall 18 Liza Minelli - Losing My Mind 19 The Beautiful South - Song For Whoever 20 Sam Brown - Stop 21 Kate Bush - This Woman’s Work Disc 2 03 Inner City - Good Life 04 Sydney Youngblood - If Only I Could 05 Pet Shop Boys - It’s Alright 06 Lil’ Louis - French Kiss Please make it stop  This post has been edited by Colm: 1st January 2024, 06:18 PM |

I didn't actually listen to it but I did very consciously pop Sydney Youngblood and the PSBs among the house tracks on the basis that It's Alright was a pretty faithful cover of the Sterling Void track and If Only I Could was basically based around Raze 'Break 4 Love'
Admittedly the last few on disc one were the ones that I had left over but liked too much to be chucked on disc 4 - which you are correct in concluding I largely dislike them, although Gloria Estefan is a little hard done by

I think you made a typing error *dandy - i think you meant to put Roy and Bananarama on disc 3 and bung Deacon Blue and Mike & The Mechanics on disc 4

QUOTE(Colm @ Jan 2 2024, 10:21 AM) Also, you introduce Will to Power only to put them on disc 4? Haha yes! I did start to just list things to see what I thought should be included and thought that was a big enough hit and was even bigger worldwide but I don’t like it… also looked at the big album sellers of the year so ended up with Chris Rea and INXS etc just because it seemed like those songs were popular enough to shift albums. But then I got bored and rushed the rest in 30 mins before we went out the other day. Plus I liked the original choices on the whole |

I would have chose London Nights instead of Requiem and also added Tyree Cooper - Turn Up The Bass but it is a great tracklist!
