The consummate BeBop collection
If you are unaware of the group Be Bop Deluxe, you’re missing out on some incredible talent and musicality of the late 70’s & early 80’s. Bill Nelson, the lead guitarist and vocals is such an underrated talent it’s almost disgraceful. Even his solo work is pretty darn good. Of course every song on these five albums are exceptional, most are. For the amount of very listenable music, this is a incredible value. Highly recommended, just do a sample of a few songs (Axe Victim, Adventure in a Yorkshire Landscape, made in Heaven, and heats just off of the Axe Victim album. And now include The rest of the other music on the 4 albums, you will be sold. And now, one of the most important factors: this is an incredible “mixing” of the recordings, the Sonics (dynamic response) is near perfect. In which I might add, immensely increases to the overall value. Can’t miss on this one. Cheers.

Take a trip back in time to one of the almost forgotten bands of the 70's
Great songs and Bill Nelson is one of the best guitarists that the UK ever produced. A great blend of Pop, Rock, and Prog with virtuoso guitar.
