La Recopilación: Gary Crowley's Lost 80's

Tras el éxito el año pasado del excelente recopilatorio "Punk And New Wave" box set, el locutor y DJ, Gary Crowley ha vuelto a poner su atención en los 80's con el lanzamiento de otro box set, del cual es curador en sus versiones 4CD y 3LP llamado "Gary Crowley's Lost 80".

No se trata de la normal recopilaci´pn de los 80's con gastadas imágenes del cubo Rubik y Pac Man en la portada, y llena de los grandes hits quemados y familiares, en vez de eso, viene temas menos conocidos y en algunos casos, de grandes artistas y bandas. 

Con una ecléctica selección de Wham!, Depeche Mode, Prefab Sprout, Spandau Ballet, Culture Club, y Bananarama, junto a raras bandas como The Suede Crocodiles, Friends Again, Bush Tetras, y Strawberry Switchblade, así como temas bailable del recientemente fallecido Pete Shelley entre otros. 

La versión de 4CD viene con un media book de 40 páginas con notas por Crowley y un total de 63 tracks, mientras que la versión de 3LP viene reducida a 30 tracks en vinilos rojo, verde y azul para recordar un poco las recopilaciones Now. 

El curioso recopilatorio será lanzado el próximo 15 de Febrero del 2019 via Demon Music:
