The unmistakable "Femme Fatale" sound of the Book Of Love. From Philadelphia to New York, this synth-pop New Wave group lived from 1984 until 1993. Played behind bands like Depeche Mode, their success zoomed in on 80s to the 90s dance culture. Their songs remixed and ultimately ended up with this Greatest Hits compilation. A lot of their singles were featured in films like The Silence of The Lambs, Philadelphia, and Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

A Piece of Paradise
by R.C. Avellanosa

 

I'd say the album cover was a come-on.  Apparently designed by Ella Chico, who designed Volume 1 and Matt Joson, who designed the second.  The cover is actually a collage of magazine clippings, which to me looked a lot like a newspaper headline.  A delightful feast of Modern Rock adobo.

The most memorable modern rock compilation album that I could suffice. Remembering cassette tape bliss and players. I'm sorry but we can't afford the cd or the vinyl. It's just is pocketwise.  We're clearly satisfied with the cassette tape. It's more handy and we could take and play it anywhere.  We did have recorded mixtapes of this series. Passed on through to be played on both wild and lame events. This has inspired the likes of me to learn the guitar, keyboards or the drums.  Or just daydream about forming a band, a modern rock outfit.  And it is just so sweet, a rush on to have us cretins wanna hop some more!
