(24) Frankie Goes To Hollywood - Frankie Said (2012)

Frankie Goes to Hollywood (FGTH) were a British dance-pop band popular in the mid-1980s. Two albums (Welcome To The Pleasuredome" 1984, "Liverpool" 1986) and seven singles might not seem like enough to base a whole compilation from unless, of course, you’re Frankie Goes to Hollywood.  The barrier-breaking Liverpudlian quartet haven’t been active in their original form for some 25 years, but their legacy on ZTT Records has been kept alive through various compilations, remixes and reissues the most recent of which is "Frankie Said".  "Frankie Said" is the first Frankie Goes To Hollywood compilation released under ZTT’s distribution deal with Union Square Music/Salvo Records.  "Frankie Said" includes just about everything you’d expect on such a compilat- ion, including the Top 5 hits "Relax", "Two Tribes", "The Power of Love", "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" and "Rage Hard", as well as key cuts like "War", "Ferry Cross the Mersey" and "Warriors of the Wasteland". There are also a few tracks fans might not have enjoyed from other releases, including the original 12″ mixes of "Relax" and "Two Tribes", as well as a live version of "Born to Run" taken from a performance on The Tube and released on the "Welcome to the Pleasuredome" single in 1985.
