The quintessential 80s hair band, A Flock Of Seagulls, presents this collection of their best compositions and some of the most memorable singles of the new wave era!Newly recorded, identical sounding versions of I Ran (So Far Away), Telecommunication, Space Age Love Song, The More You Live, The More You Love and more!Special bonus mixes, exclusive to this compilation, plus 2 stellar remixes by industrial legends Die Krupps and Guenter Schultz (KMFDM/Slick Idiot)!A Flock Of Seagulls is still a very popular band amongst 80s music enthusiasts!Okay, so everyone remembers the hair, teased high and tossed like an ocean wave. Those outrageous bleach blonde locks have become a singular expression of 80s excess and one of the most iconic pictures of American music history, even parodied (hilariously) by Mike Myers in the film View From The Top. But A Flock Of Seagulls were also responsible for great swaths of the music that made the 80s so great. Unlike the hairstyles, the soaring melodies and unshakeable choruses of I Ran (So Far Away), Telecommunication, Wishing (If I Had A Photograph Of You), Space Age Love Song and many other AFOS songs are timeless, unfettered pieces of pop music majesty. This hits collection, featuring singer Mike Score s newly recorded, true-to-the-orignal versions of the Seagulls best loved songs, is guaranteed to have you banging on your air-synth while it transports you back to that indelible era when the artists were heroes and melody was their superpower. Enjoy! --Cleopatra Records
