    Spandau Ballet - The Singles Collection (1985)

    Spandau Ballet - The Singles Collection (1985)
    EAC | FLAC | Image (Cue&Log) ~ 367 Mb | Mp3 (CBR320) ~ 138 Mb | Scans ~ 42 Mb
    New Wave, New Romantic, Pop/Rock | Label: Chrysalis | # CCD 1498 | 01:00:25

    An excellent round-up of the 15 hit singles that, between late 1980 and fall 1984, saw Spandau Ballet transcend every prediction ever levelled at their music, and establish themselves among the most versatile British bands of their era. From the utterly convincing white boy Funk of the early "To Cut A Long Story Short", "The Freeze", "Musclebound" and "Chant No 1", through the bodyswerve to ballad-ville that ushered in the age of "True" and "Gold", and onto the near-anthemic guitar pop of "Only When You Leave" and "Highly Strung", The Singles Collection suffers only from its failure to tell the tale in strict chronological fashion. Tracing the band's development, after all, is almost as satisfying as having their first few pounding moments all lumped together at the beginning - for was there any more satisfying sound than that?

    The problem with that approach, of course, is that many listeners might not even want to progress beyond them - arguably, late '81's "Paint Me Down" represented the peak of Spandau's ambition, with the following year's "Lifeline" sounding almost retrogressive when lined up alongside the band's other 1982 releases. On the other hand, there was an entire new audience for whom Tony Hadley crooning "Only When You Leave" and "She Loved Like Diamond" represented an entire new beginning for a band that had hitherto been too badly scarred by the New Romantic brush - in which case, a very good case exists for this album (and every other Spandau Ballet collection) to be abruptly sliced in half, and reissued across two volumes, the Funky Years and the wimpy ones. But who would ever do that?
