Tracks :


1986 ... a sweet parenthesis to which the group had not really accustomed us. An Intimist area that they will have explored very little in favor of a much more punchy register. Too bad because they could surely have made some great discoveries there ...


Full Article The Motels


 

1985 ... an excellent first title for the group which immediately shows the trend : this group is particularly gifted for the Intimist. A gift that will be vividly confirmed in the years that will follow ...


Full Article Ten Sharp


 

1990 ... which will remain as the biggest success of all their discography. And surprisingly, the girls are going to get the Grail on an Intimist title, amazing thing. But what matters is the result and on this one, they are all good !


Full Article Sweet Sensation


 

1984 ... a beautiful and BIG 1984 for the group with an impressive succession of hits. This title will quite simply position the group as one of the phenomena of the moment. A well-deserved consecration !


Full Article The Psychedelic Furs


 

1989 ... THIS title arrives for the group ! However, we remain at the same tempo as its previous titles but this one will have a radically different destiny than its predecessors. The group won the game with this title which will remain as one of the biggest global hits of the end of the decade. MAS-TER-FUL !


Full Article Soul II Soul


 

1983 ... a style and a unique sound that allows the group to stand out from the crowd. And it pays !


Full Article Big Country


 

1980 ... the first steps of a small group which in a few years will become one of the leading groups of the English New-Wave scene. With a first title which already says a lot about their potential ...

Full Article Paul Laurence


 

1985 ... the adventure continues for whatever it is for the singer in this decade of 80 and he still believes in it. And we also believe in it, so why was it not the case at that time, good question ...


Full Article John Miles


 

1982 ... THE title which offers the singer his direct ticket to posterity and at the same time offers him his biggest record success. HU-GE !


Full Article Keni Burke


 

1984 ... whether they are in the festive and playful field or in the Intimist field, they assure ! They offer us here a nice moment of simple emotions but with formidable efficiency !


Full Article Strawberry Switchblade


 

1988 ... they will have launched Intimist only at the end, a mistake when you see what they are able to offer. But it is already too late to reverse the trend, even at this level ...


Full Article The Twins


 

1986 ... a nice track all smooth and finesse which once again proves a talent with obvious versatility. And who says versatility, says great career. Which will be the case concerning him !


Full Article David Grant


 

1990 ... an inspiration decidedly at the top in this year 1990. Of course, this title will not meet the same level of success as its previous title but the result is once again up to the task !


Full Article Peter Murphy

1988 ... he retries the Intimist experience with a little more success this time. But there is nothing to do, except for his first title, the rest of his discography will remain fairly average level ...


Full Article Georgio


 

1983 ... we would never have imagined them capable of venturing into the Intimist domain. And my faith, the result is most astonishing and especially the most successful. A real success !


Full Article One Two Three

1986 ... the last major hit. The singer will have deluded only two years before everything deteriorates at high speed ...


Full Article Limalh


 

1982 ... THIS title arrives for the group ! The sound evolution is obvious and as if by chance, the group recorded here its first planetary class hit. Like what, not much was enough to see them finally reach the big leagues !


Full Article The Payolas


 

1990 ... the title of planetary consecration thanks to this luxury cover of the U2 title dating from 1987. In just 2 years, they will have reached an incredible level of recognition to say the least. A dazzling ascent which will be followed by a deceleration also...dazzling !
