Advantages: catchy songs

Disadvantages: none

Now this is perhaps the Pet Shop Boys at their finest. They don't do long album titles, it just isn't them. Short and to the point, this album contains some of their music when they were at the peak of their career. So actually, let's see what is on it...

Tracks: Its A Sin, their biggest UK hit to date is the strongest one on here. The song rocketed to number one when released and is a celebratory delight of Neil's rousing vocals and Chris' soaring synth riffs. The song will move you, it will mesmerise and surprise. A bit more subdued is Rent, with harsh lyrics and a gut wrenching set of verses. One of my personal faves is the duet with Dusty Sprngfield on What Have I Done To Deserve This. The balance of vocals is superb and Dusty brings a superb mellowness to the song. It is touching and poignant.

Production: Even in the mid eighties the production sounded crisp and alert, faultless on this album

Artwork: Simple and arty. We like the yawning!

Overall: If you buy one of their albums plump for this one

Verdict: Brilliant

Summary: super
