Additional information
The seventh volume of the Netherlands' Rodeo label's Dance Classics: Pop Edition series contains another seemingly arbitrary round of extended and alternate 12" mixes of (mostly 1980s) A-sides. Wham! ("I'm Your Man"), Michael Sembello ("Maniac"), Captain Sensible ("Wot"), Tears for Fears ("Shout"), Little Steven ("Bitter Fruit"), Carly Simon ("Why"), Johnny Hates Jazz ("Turn Back the Clock"), and Wang Chung ("Everybody Have Fun Tonight") are among the artists featured. As usual, many of the selections are mastered from vinyl, and the two-disc set's appeal is limited to collectors who can forgive some sonic flaws and look past questionable graphic design. ~ Andy Kellman
