Movie Reviews of Essential Music Videos: 80's UK
Movie Review: Good enough to buy if you're a Brit fan
Summary: 5 Stars
I know, only 6 videos/songs...and no extras(does have song credits though). But if you're a fan of 80's British music, where else can you find some of these rare gems in one place for this cheap a price? Let's go through them all:
1. Erasure's A LITTLE RESPECT-a really good, popular song, a pretty good video featuring the duo.
2. Yaz's SITUATION- an edited, club/techno-remix of the song(i prefer the pop-synth version on the album) with a kaleidescope-esque video. psychadelic and kinda cool, but doesn't even show the duo.
3. The English Beat's MIRROR IN THE BATHROOM- nice, upbeat, ska song with a very 80's looking video(fashion, setting wise) with the group. very nostalgic this one.
4. Echo & the Bunnymen's LIPS LIKE SUGAR- omg..great song, good video featuring the band. arguably my favorite of the bunch. very smooth...
5. Happy Mondays' STEP ON- extremely danceable, ultra cool, very popular in its day song. and the video, featuring the band, is pretty cool too(then again, Happy Mondays were the epitome of cool)
6. Jesus & Mary Chain's HEAD ON- pretty good song(the most 'rock'-sounding of the bunch) and pretty cool video(with the brothers duo in it).
overall, good sound and picture quality(for 80's videos), and really good diverse selection to boot(despite only 6 choices, none are bad). so i highly recommend this dvd....if you're into the 80's UK music scene that is. hope there's a bigger and better vol.2 coming, but i doubt it. as is, this is great stuff.
