1981 ... after having started her career in a sensational way with a pure Dance title, she goes straight to an Ultimate Slow. Despite a certain quality, the latter will unfortunately not allow her to equal the feat achieved on the previous title ...


Full Article Lesley Jayne


 

1982 ... looks like Ultravox, tastes like Ultravox but it's not Ultravox. And something extremely rare, the copy is well worth the original, a real feat !


Full Article Messengers


 

1981 ... his 2nd WONDER, this time, a sublime hymn to women. A title once again with extraordinary inspiration and which vividly shows the enormous potential that the artist still had before his death. MO-NU-MEN-TAL !


Full Article John Lennon


 

1987 ... his second biggest hit. Once again on a slow and rhythmic tempo at the same time. A glamorous mode that works perfectly on this title !


Full Article Smokey Robinson


 

1983 ... the group delivers here a musical monument which will surely remain as one of the most emblematic titles of the decade, if not of the twentieth century. A marvel of inspiration that mixes extreme finesse, distressing moments but also colossal strength with an absolutely incredible touch on the drums by Phil Collins at the end of the piece


Full Article Genesis


 

1986 ... the bellows fall somewhat for the group on this title and this in spite of a certain quality. It must be said that the start of their career was so overwhelming that it was obvious that the group could not continue at such a sustained pace ...


Full Article Mike + The Mechanics


 

1984 ... an empty year for the group in 1983 but it was to rebound better the following year. And what a twist ! They deliver here their 2nd WONDER, a new amazing title and which will remain, like the previous one, among the most successful of the decade and the XXth century. MA-GNI-FI-CENT !


Full Article Foreigner


 

1982 ... a particularly successful first solo title which launches the artist's personal career as best it can


Full Article Midge Ure


 

1985 ... the singer's style evolved a bit, that's obvious. Little but enough to produce pieces that will qualify as more affordable for ordinary people ...


Full Article Gary Numan


 

1987 ... which will surely go down as one of the most incredible Ultimate Slows of the decade and of the twentieth century altogether. And it's a cover in addition, of another star of the 80s, which few people know .... MAS-TER-FUL !


Full Article Glenn Medeiros


 

1985 ... very few Intimist in their discography but a few gems here and there. Including this one. MA-GIC !


Full Article Dire Straits


 

1990 ... the group signs here quite simply one of the most incredible pieces of the XXth century. The perfect meeting between the profane and the sacred. Cretu signs here a real WONDER which allows this concept project to make him One Shot a legend


Full Article Enigma


 

1983 ... their Masterpiece. THE title that will change everything, explode their notoriety and make them definitively enter the musical legend of the 80s


Full Article UB40


 

1981 ... a first title that propels her One Shot to the rank of planetary star. Colossal success of entry for a very young girl aged only 9 years ...


Full Article Nikka Costa


 

1980 ... a big year 1980 for the group with an almost uninterrupted succession of titles of great caliber. The inspiration is top notch !


Full Article The Specials


 

1980 ... their ultimate WONDER. Surely one of their most beautiful titles and which, despite its exceptional quality, carries a heavy message and premonitiously announces the end of the group ...


Full Article ABBA


 

1986 ... after an empty year 1985, we find the singer the following year in a form for the less dazzling. To the point where she signs here the biggest success of her career. HU-GE !


Full Article Anita Baker


 

1988 ... ah, finally a foray into the Intimist. It was damn missing from the group's hunting board. Well, it's the Intimist 100,000 volts version but we will largely be satisfied with it !


Full Article Joan Jett


 

1985 ... two titles remained without a future then comes THIS title. A first classified title which launches for good the career of a group with Celtic influences of the first order and which will very quickly become one of the biggest phenomena of the decade


Full Article The Pogues


 

1980 ... their Mona Lisa ! A title carried by an inspiration from who knows where and which will very quickly become one of the biggest Ultimate Slows of the decade. And of this end of the twentieth century period ! MA-GIC !


Full Article Five Letters


 

1987 ... a sweet break in an ocean of Dance titles. A little rest is not harmful, on the contrary and shows all the versatility of the singer


Full Article Colonel Abrams


 

1989 ... it is THIS title which makes the singer return definitively to the musical legend of the 80s. And paradoxically, in Intimist mode. MA-GIC !


Full Article Martika


 

1983 ... the title of consecration. The biggest success of his career one on a very smooth title. Who would've believed that ? HU-GE !


Full Article Elvis Costello


 

1984 ... it will be necessary to wait for the year 1984 to see their first single classified. A deserved recognition which rewards a talent more than obvious !


Full Article Fiat Lux


 

1985 ... as paradoxical as it may seem, it is on an Ultimate Slow that this very dance oriented group gets its first mega hit. Like what...


Full Article Isley-Jasper-Isley


 

1984 ... a year 1984 which will remain absolutely exceptional for the group with this new title. A title that will undoubtedly remain as one of their most emblematic. MAS-TER-FUL !


Full Article Thompson Twins
