Greatest Hits Collection

Love, Truth and Honesty !!! :)
The first 11 songs on this collection Are Awesome and the rest are good as well most of the songs on this collection I had never heard before, but I Liked Cruel Summer, Venus and I heard a rumor so I bought this collection because I wanted to delve further into Bananaramas music and I'm So Glad I Did and I have this in my cd collection now !!! :)

~ ~ Deluxe Version 2 CD set of BANANARAMA's "Greatest Collection" updated and expanded ~
If you are a long time fan of BANANARAMA, like I am, you MUST get this set if you don't have it already.It's basically an updated expanded version of the 1988/1989 single disc version put out.30 years "Celebration" with the ladies coming back together to tour.Remastered, because I have the original '89 version with "HELP" on it and it does not sound as good as this set.If you have THAT '89 version disc, KEEP IT as THIS 2 CD set does NOT have that song.The set is 2 CDs and comes with very nice liner notes and updated photos of all 3 original ladies.CD 1 ~VENUSI HEARD A RUMOURLOVE IN THE FIRST DEGREEI CAN'T HELP ITI WANT YOU BACKLOVE, TRUTH AND HONESTYNATHAN JONES (Non album mix)REALLY SAYING SOMETHINGSHY BOYROBERT DE NIRO'S WAITINGCRUEL SUMMERIT AIN'T WHAT YOU DO...NA NA HEY HEY (KISS HIM GOODBYE)ROUGH JUSTICEA TRICK OF THE NIGHTAIE A MWANAMORE THAN PHYSICALDO NOT DISTURBHOT LINE TO HEAVENTHE WILD LIFECHEERS THEN!CD 2 ~REALLY SAYING SOMETHING (Extended US Version)SHY BOY (Extended US Version)NA NA HEY HEY (Kiss Him Goodbye) (Extended Version)ROBERT DE NIRO'S WAITING (Extended Version)VENUS (Hellfire Mix)MORE THAN PHYSICAL (Garage Mix)I HEARD A RUMOUR (Miami Mix)LOVE IN THE FIRST DEGREE (Eurobeat Style)I CAN'T HELP IT (The Hammond Version Excursion)NATHAN JONES (Psycho Mix)CRUEL SUMMER ('89 Swing Beat Dub)

Sizeable collection of songs but man, those 12" releases SUCK!
If you love the sound of an electronic hand-clap (the signature sound of the 1980's along with the ubiquitous cowbell), you'll love the 12" releases on disc 2. Me? Even though a big sound buff from that era, and indeed a lover of the extended remix, this made me want to break the CD into little pieces! Sound quality on both discs is OK, not bad, but not outstanding. Very dated sound indeed and the overdubbed vocals from more than one singer is fatiguing...sigh.

Delivery time disappointing
Happy to finally receive my CD. Took exactly 2 months to arrive. Seller said one month , it was exactly 2 months and 4 days. Delivery time was disappointing.

Fun band of the 80's.
I really enjoyed this collection of hits. Spunky & fun. I thought they were more of a summer band, but I could play this collection all year long. 2 thumbs up for Bananarama Greatest.

Excellent Reissue
Finally a reissue of this album that contains all their singles as a trio (the correct 7" versions too) . The remastering sounds very good to my ears compared to the very low volume original release and with a bonus CD of the more popular remixes, this release is unbeatable. They've even gone to the effort of updating the booklet with recent reunion photographs.

I loved it back then but felt it was incomplete because ...
I had purchased this CD back in 1988 when it was first released. I loved it back then but felt it was incomplete because it was missing a few singles. Now the 2017 release contains all the missing UK singles plus "the wild life" which was a U.S. single from the Soundtrack of the same name. Plus it contains a bonus disc of 12" singles which is kind of anticlimactic after all the album reissues and the Singles box set that we have been bombarded with in the last 2 or 3 years. All we need now are the 1989 tracks that have been sitting in the PWL vaults. Bananarama themselves probably won't let this happen. We can always dream though...

Timeless!
Great cd of Bananarama greatest hits. Used mainly in the car for those long journeys. It's amazing how many timeless tunes are on this double cd. If you feel like being a bit nostalgic get this. You wont be disappointed!

It was a great price & is packed with our teenage nostalgia.
Its "Bananarama" Greatest Hits, say no more.This was meant to be a Christmas gift for my partner but unfortunately the postage was so late it didn't arrive till after the event. (I've decided not to mark it down for the late delivery)It was a great price & is packed with our teenage nostalgia.
