So80's (So Eighties) is a triple-disc set of classic new wave and '80s hits selected by the German DJs Blank & Jones. The pair offer a non-stop mix of hits on the first disc while the other two discs round up original extended 12" mixes of the hits. Those looking for a thumping nonstop party will prefer the former, while those that grew up hunting down 12"s in record stores will prefer the latter pair of discs.
2011 three CD set, the fifth volume in the So80s series. The finest collection of original classic 12" club & extended mixes.
Blank & Jones' fifth So80s mix continues the duo's omnivorous presentation of '80s club music. Within the span of only a few tracks, the first disc moves from Bananarama's "Cruel Summer" to John Carpenter's "The End" and Liaisons Dangereuses' "Los Ninos del Parque" - from chart-topping pop to deep, cult-level gems. Among the other inclusions are Rick Springfield's "Celebrate Youth," New Order's "True Faith," Deacon Blue's "Real Gone Kid," and Thompson Twins' "Hold Me Now." Listeners with similarly broad taste will lap it all up.

As a collector the box also gathers together a number of key concerts and performances from Rick’s long and varied career…
