Comments:
There are several odd things with this compilation. For one thing, why aren't the tracks listed by year of release? It would have made more sense to me, at least. And why is the album Romantic completely overlooked? I was under the impression that at least 'Heart Like A Wheel' was something of a hit on that album, even if it was one of their weaker efforts. And why is the the 'Fast Version' from 1978 of 'Being Boiled' included instead of the superior 1980 version which, if I recall correctly, was a bigger hit? And why is 'Together In Electric Dreams' featured? It wasn't even a Human League song, but a collaboration between Phil Oakey and Giorgio Moroder.
To promote this compilation, the big dance name of the day Snap was comissioned to remix Human League's biggest hit, and made a really really poor job of it. It's incredibly painfully bad, even by Snap standards.
So why did I get this compilation then? Well, I got it cheap, and it featured a few tracks from 'Fascination' and 'Hysteria' that I didn't previously have.
