(Synthpop/New Wave) Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Frankie Said (The Very Best Of) - 2012, MP3, 320 kbps

Two albums and seven singles might not seem like enough to base a whole compilation from – unless, of course, you’re Frankie Goes to Hollywood.
The barrier-breaking Liverpudlian quartet haven’t been active in their original form for some 25 years, but their legacy on ZTT Records has been kept alive through various compilations, remixes and reissues – the most recent of which is Frankie Said.
Frankie Said is the first FTGH compilation released under ZTT’s distribution deal with Union Square Music/Salvo Records. Frankie Said includes just about everything you’d expect on such a compilat- ion, including the Top 5 hits Relax, Two Tribes, The Power of Love, Welcome to the Pleasuredome and Rage Hard, as well as key cuts like War, Ferry Cross the Mersey and Warriors of the Wasteland.
There are also a few tracks fans might not have enjoyed from other releases, including the original 12″ mixes of “Relax” and “Two Tribes,” as well as a “live” version of “Born to Run” taken from a performance on The Tube and released on the “Welcome to the Pleasuredome” single in 1985.
