The Furs' Best Effort and One of the Best of the 80's
Time seems to have vindicated the Psychedelic Furs. I have been listening to them a lot lately; in fact, of the bands I have been listening to of late they spend the most time on my CD changer and in the car. I always loved the band but I am even...

Great stuff but a question
The Furs are a great band and this is probably their best album. My question is this: what is R. Butler saying at the end of Pretty in Pink? I catch a little of it ("other kinds of uniform...you can be what you want to be--until tomorrow"...

Talk Talk Talk is all I Ever Do!!
I have over 1000 albums and this is the only one I have on cassette, lp and CD. If that ain't enough for you, then this album is so good that their best song in my opinion 'Into You Like A Train' didn't even make it onto the awesome'All Of This...

Still great after all these years (I must be getting old!)
This album still stands up after the passage of time. Nobody has pipes like Richard Butler! If you like the Furs, this is the best disc they ever made, so buy it!!

Pretty In Pink, But Lovely In Any Color
After pantherboy's fine review, there's not a whole lot left to say. Only that this release stands as the high-water mark from a band that is arguably the best (to my ears, anyway) of the New Wave. Insightful songwriting, edgy playing,...

Classic punk
...The Clash appeared in Britain at the same time as the Pistols. The Clash actually was the opening act on their first tour and got a bigger reception than the Pistols. Punk had its origins in bands such the Patty Smith Band and Television....

A classic cd, more accessible than their debut
The first poster says this cd is "the only one of value by the Furs." This is insane. Their debut, "The Psychedelic Furs," is one of the best cd's of all time. "Talk Talk Talk" is more accessible, lighter, and poppier -- none of these bad,...

This one will endure
When I listen to the post-Sex Pistols, pre-"alternative rock" albums, it is interesting to see what has aged well -- and what hasn't. Much of the Clash's catelog is now painfully dated, for example. This album -- the only one of value by the...

Rock's most colorful chameleon
Savvy Brit art students make good on this sophomore effort, turning in a glorious collision of naive guitar thrusts and the most inventive use of a drum kit I've heard in a rock format. Richard Butler's vocals have a brooding tenderness, as if...

An early-eighties classic
This is one of my all-time favorites. The Furs sound young, arrogant, bored, and angry. And catchy as hell.
