Out of print in the U.S. UK reissue of this 1988 compilation from the Liverpudlian Synthpopsters featuring two tracks not available on the original U.S. pressing: 'Telegraph' and 'Genetic Engineering'. Released at the height of their success, this collection spanned their career up to 1988, beginning with the 1980 single 'Electricity' and ending with 'Dreaming', a track recorded specifically for this collection (and the final track released from the original duo since they split up shortly after this album was released). 18 tracks including 'Messages', 'If You Leave', 'Tesla Girls', 'Enola Gay' plus bonus extended mixes of 'We Love You' and 'La Femme Accident'. Disky.

Summary: The Best of OMD
Comment: This CD is really the best. The CD is really great and exceeded my expectations. The service and price was excellent also. I received it in a timely manner and in first class condition

Summary: Solid Collection -- Good Stuff
Comment: An inexpensive way to get yourself a copy of most of OMD's best work.
Most of their classics on one disc. Good intro for the newbie.
Mix seems a bit bass-heavy to me but it sounds better that way--gives authority to the music and avoids the dreaded sharp vocals/shrill synths syndrome.
I used to disdain this band but now, having heard more of their work it's clear they are songwriting wizards casting their special style of sentimental spells with mastery.

Summary: Great CD
Comment: This is a great CD. I had forgotten just how good OMD was. I bought the CD rather than just burn the song I wanted on a CD because I wanted to hear more of their works. This was a great investment, and I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys OMD or just plain good music.

Summary: Great CD
Comment: I just love this CD... it brings back so many great memories of my teenage years back in Germany in the 80s. It really captures the new wave/synth music which was so popular back then in Europe and played on the radios and clubs all the time. I especially love their early song "Souvenir". This CD is one of my all time favorites...

Comment: If you are an OMD fan this is a must have! It has all of their best songs. Worth every penny.
