Album Description
2009 two disc (CD + PAL/Region 0 DVD) pressing of this 2009 compilation from the British Synthpop maestro. Dolby began his musical career as a session musician for acts like Lene Lovich, The Buggles, Bruce Woolley and Foreigner before going solo in the early '80s as part of the growing Electronic music scene. With hits like 'Europe & The Pirate Twins', 'Airwaves' and 'She Blinded Me With Science', he mapped out a successful career as an artist, branching off into production. This collection contains 19 of his best tracks on the CD including the aforementioned tracks plus 'Hyperactive' and more. The DVD contains 19 videos, many of which were in constant rotation during MTV's early years. EMI.

Fantastic Remastering5
The remastering job on this CD is fantastic. Having listened to The Golden Age of Wireless all these years, I am very familiar with the sonics of that album. I have a dedicated listening room with an all tube driven system. I compared the first 30 seconds of the intro to Airwaves between my old copy and this new release. Subtle sounds that were buried before are brought forward just enough to expand the soundstage and breathe new life into these classic gems. A must for any fan of great music and great sound. The alternate versions on this CD are simply a joy to listen to as well. Airhead in particular is a real standout. If you are a Dolby fan you must add this to your collection. I pre-ordered the re-releases of The Golden Age of Wireless and The Flat Earth. I can't wait to hear those other two releases in their entirety after getting a taste of this remaster.
