Adam Ant
Prior to the 2003 release of The Essential Adam Ant, there hadn't been a career-spanning hits compilation on his career apart from the 1999 Sony International set The Very Best of Adam and the Ants. This 17-track collection shares 15 songs with that 22-song collection (as well as the same cover picture), so it would seem to be pretty much ...

Adam & The Ants/Adam Ant
The most comprehensive overview of the band. In 22 tracks, all of the hits are represented as well as key album cuts and a rare B-side, "Beat My Guest." An essential part of any new wave collection. ~ Chris Woodstra, All Music Guide

Monster '80s certainly lives up to its name, collecting some of the decade's most memorable singles, from the suave, sophisticated pop of Spandau Ballet's "True" to the ultra-perky cheerleader chant of Toni Basil's "Mickey." The Stray Cats' "Stray Cat Strut" and Adam Ant's "Goody Two Shoes" relive the '50s via the '80s, while Rick Springfield's ...

There are a million different compilations of '80s music, so many that there is no way to tell how definitive any one collection is when there could easily be a better one right behind it in the aisle at the CD store. But when it comes to delivering big hits, Monster 80's, Vol. 2 is a surefire winner, even if the songs aren't always the greatest. ...

Adam Ant
Adam Ant adopted a '50s-style rock & roll sound for his third solo album, achieving a pastiche with some of the effervescence, but none of the definition (or popularity), of Elton John's "Crocodile Rock." Producer Tony Visconti tried to give him some of the plastic rock legitimacy of Ziggy Stardust-era David Bowie, but Ant was even goofier, and ...

MTV Class of 1983
(1995)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
The double-disc MTV Class of 1983 attempts to distill the essence of early MTV to 30 tracks from the biggest names and most popular one-hit wonders of that year. The approach works remarkably well, as the compilation features many new wave classics that effortlessly evoke 1983. The sheer size of MTV Class of 1983 distinguishes it from other new ...

Adam Ant and Marco Pirroni ditched the rest of the Ants not long after the release of the widely derided Prince Charming, which provided them with the perfect opportunity for a new statement of purpose in the first Ant-less album, 1982's Friend or Foe. They had already begun moving away from Burundi beats and Indians on Prince Charming, but here ...

Adam Ant
Upon the release of Strip, Adam Ant was still popular enough in the U.K. to squeeze out one more Top Ten hit with "Puss 'n Boots," but the album stopped at number 20. The mixture of driving, danceable rock with humor on Kings of the Wild Frontier, Prince Charming, and even some of Friend or Foe had given way to a lighter pop approach and outright ...

Sony's mammoth three-disc Greatest Hits of the 80's collection may be cheap looking, but it's swelled to the gills with hits both well known and obscure.

Alternative Evolution is yet another compilation of (mostly) '80s new wave hits marketed the roots of alternative rock. While it may be true that several artists featured here were popular on college radio (Toad the Wet Sprocket, Psychedelic Furs), and while many of the songs have the quirkiness common to the less mainstream side of new wave, this ...

It's not nearly as complete as the definitive Antics in the Forbidden Zone, but Super Hits does a nice job of rounding up Adam Ant's hit singles, concentrating on singles from Kings of the Wild Frontier and Friend or Foe. The dark post-punk of Dirk Wears White Sox is ignored, as is the shiny pop of Strip (unfortunately, it's because "Vive Le Rock" ...
