The Best of Squeeze - up to 1990
Advantages: All the hits, great value Disadvantages: Doesn't include the band's highly regarded 1990s work
...am concerned, one of the greatest lyricists of his generation and Glenn Tilbrook is able to melodically interpret Difford's words beautifully. The Album The album begins with the bands first hit single from 1978, "Take Me I'm Yours". At the time they were marketed as a post-punk, powerpop set-up, which was misleading given the fact they were musically very gifted. The song is particularly evocative of traveling "the seven seas" as Chris and Glenn ... ...indicative of what the future held for them. The follow up was "Bang Bang", a piece of power pop which wasn't particularly memorable and is only remembered by fans nowadays - indeed Chris and Glenn have distanced themselves from the song. Later on in 1978 however the band released "Goodbye Girl" which was to be the first single from their second album, and this is a firm favourite, despite only reaching number 63 in the charts. The song perfectly ...

They're nuts
Advantages: Some great stuff here Disadvantages: None really
...familar obsessions, as its title, More Songs About Buildings And Food, mockingly suggested.
Eno’s influence on the album was relatively subtle. He fed the sound of the band through his synthesiser, and then mixed the treated sound in with the original.
The result emphasised rather than altered the band’s style. Tina Weymouth and Chris Frantz were developing into a powerful, funky rhythm section, and the overall sound of the record was a bigger, ... ...contained a surprise hit single, a cover of soul singer Al Green’s Take Me To The River. Sung with all the intensity Byrne could muster, the single entered the US Top Thirty, reaching number 26.
The Heads were a band that was clearly going places and were proving their ability to progress with each album. ...

creepiest album ever made
Advantages: timeless Disadvantages: none
...ever made about paranoia and fear - everything about it just seems right :
the simplicity of the one word titles, the sparseness of the musical arrangements, Brian Enos production, Byrnes haunted and haunting vocals.
The most accessible tracks here are Heaven and Life During Wartime - the latter is the one that mentions CBGBs in the chorus and tells of a survivor/spy? of WWIII. And the former, at first listen seems like a really nice song with ... ...are murkier and deal with fear of the atmosphere and oxygen (Air - "people say not to worry about the air, some people have never had experience of air"), how someone is controlling us for music for sinister reasons, (Electric Guitar - "never listen to electric guitar", "someone controls electric guitar") and how animals can't be trusted (Animals) and aren't as cute and innocent as they make out.
The album opens with the nonsensical world music ...
