V.A. - Greatest Ever! Electric Eighties: The Definitive Collection (3CD Box Set, 2010)

The 1980s were a transformative time for electronic music. With the demise of punk and the rise of New Wave followed by the all-consuming glamour of the New Romantics, electronic music went from being thought of as barely music at all to being the only music people wanted to listen to, all within the space of a few years. This collection brings together some of the best the 80s had to offer in electronica and synth pop, from the cool left-field stylings of Propaganda, Visage and The Passions to some of the best all-out chart pop ever created in Erasure, Spandau Ballet, Wham! and ABC. Long live the Electric Eighties!
