The Thieves of Darkness

The world's greatest paintings - and the most audacious art heists of all time. Gripping true stories of a global game of cat and mouse as high culture meets the underworld.

Weighing in at a hefty 100 tracks across five CDs, "Rock And New Wave: The Ultimate Collection" surveys four decades of hits. The album runs from the beginnings of hard rock in the late 60s (Deep Purple, Iron Butterfly) through the mid-70s (Dr Feelgood, Hawkwind) via punk from the UK (The Damned, The Stranglers) and the US (Ramones, Richard Hell & The Voidoids) to new wave (Ian Dury & The Blockheads, Television). There's also space for eighties US metal (Faith No More, Skid Row), UK alternative rock (Echo & The Bunnymen, The Jesus & Mary Chain) and tracks from the new romantic artists that were inspired by New Wave (A Flock Of Seagulls, The Associates) alongside British rockers from the 90s and 00s (The Darkness, Terrorvision). "Rock And New Wave: The Ultimate Collection" features 100 anthems to appeal to any fan of guitar music.
