{"product_id":"pop-20-hits-1","title":"POP! - 20 Hits","description":"Amazon.com\n\nA singles band if ever there was one, the hits on Pop make the duo of Andy Bell and Vince Clarke of Erasure sound like the Rodgers \u0026amp; Hammerstein of synth-pop disco. With the exception of The Circus and The Innocents albums, most of Erasure's full lengths house only a few brief moments of brilliance, the rest of the songs being limp and uninspired. But putting songs like \"Blue Savannah\" with its sweeping loveliness, the haunting \"Ship of Fools,\" and the campy, raucous \"Love to Hate You\" all on the same disc shows that when Erasure is on, they shine like a thousand-carat tiara. The energetic and electronic disco is front and center here with \"Oh L'Amour\" and the audience participation number \"Stop!,\" but the beautifully crafted \"Sometimes\" shows the band's true potential. The irrepressible melody line is punctuated by an acoustic riff and a melancholy trumpet solo that actually has to do its best to keep up with Bell's warm lament. An indispensable collection. --Steve Gdula\n\nProduct description\n\nPOP! - 20 Hits\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B000002MHL\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: 4EKGRJ00928A_ns\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Erasure\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio CD\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
