Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars 80's moog music.......2007-06-27

If you are into 80's music that's heavy on the moog and the synthesizer then this cd is for you. It's like a not so dark Gary Numan, but with a real nice groove. So pop the cd in your Camaro and comb your mullet and enjoy the jams.

5 out of 5 stars get this collection of 12" versions before it's out of print!!!.......2005-08-21

This excellent collection gathers songs not only from the US CD "Love an Adventure", but the even more new wave sounding songs from the groups 1984 debut LP. Note that a couple of songs from that first LP were eventually redone for the "Love an Adventure" US release, so some of the 12" versions on here are actually DIFFERENT 12" mixes than the US 12" versions--namely "a Beat for You" and "Listening". Just wish they would release the entire first album on CD. Track times:

1. listening (5:35)
2. a beat for you (7:26)
3. stranger in me (6:04)
4. Don't Go (6:40)
5. Love an Adventure (6:21)
6. Living in a Dream (5:39)
7. Destination Unknown (5:48)
8. Funky Town (6:35)

5 out of 5 stars WHO HAS 'LOVE AN ADVENTURE??'.......2002-03-05

This is simply an amazing album! I had the cassette when I was in junior high. It is awesome music, simply put. If you have it, please let me know where you got it. These guys should have been a whole lot bigger than they were. I'll pay top dollar for the CD!

5 out of 5 stars 80's At It's Best.......2001-04-21

Let me admit that I had never heard that much of these guys even though I claim to be a big fan of the 80's new wave bands. I originally investigated this album because I had heard several of the songs on the soundtrack to North Shore (a very entertaining surf movie). When I realized that three of the songs that I heard and liked in the movie were from Pseudo Echo, I bought the album. This album is very entertaining if not for its originality, at least for its execution of classic 80s synth new wave. There are times when this band sounds like OMD, Depeche, Oingo and a myriad of other bands from that time (there is a classic OMD 'loop' moment on one of the songs - if you buy the CD you'll know when you hear it). I won't argue who was the original in this situation, but I will tell you that this album is as entertaining and listenable as one from any of the other bands I previously mentioned and is well worth a purchase if you're looking to get turned on to 'new' music that is close to 20 years old. A must for any fan of 80s new wave.
