Thomas Dolby-Retrospectacle

Another one of the first CDs I bought while I was living in the rental on Franklin St. in West Reading. Dolby is an English solo artist. This compilation has his two big hits “She Blinded Me With Science” and “Hyperactive”. “I Scare Myself” is probably my favorite with its Jazzy piano and trumpet solo. Written by Dan Hicks I remember watching the video on MTV when I was living in Hull, Massachusetts. Definitely 80’s but it’s a good mix of Pop, Electronic and New Wave Music. There are 16 songs at over 70 minutes. Besides those three mentioned I also like “Windpower”, “One Of Our Submarines”, “Budapest By Blimp”. “I Love You Goodbye” and the infectious “Pulp Culture”.
