Greatest Ever Alternative 80s presents 3CDs of classic music from the decade when it became OK - even preferable - to be different. From alternative artists like the Sisters Of Mercy, The Cure and Bauhaus to chart-topping art-pop acts like Erasure, Talk Talk and OMD, the music on this album shares a left-of-centre sensibility and an unmistakable 1980s feel, when MTV was king and anything was possible. Indulge your inner indie kid, electro kid, grunge kid and even goth kid with this essential 3CD compilation.
