The genre defining anthem 'High Energy' from Evelyn Thomas ruled the clubs dance-floors, and the disc still has room for party favourite 'It's Raining Men' from The Weather Girls and Kim Wilde's synth-pop hidden gem 'The Touch'. CD3 opens on the dancefloor with soulful vocals and electro beats from Chaka Khan's 'I Feel For You', followed by Womack \u0026amp; Womack's 'Love Wars' and the sublime full-length version of Jocelyn Brown's 'Somebody Else's Guy'.

The remainder of the disc celebrates some of the years' greatest alt-pop 12\"'s, featuring Propaganda's incredible 'Das Testament Des Dr Mabuse', Cocteau Twins with the sublime 'Pearly Dewdrops' Drops' and Echo and the Bunnymen's stunning 'The Killing Moon'.
