Review by Ergün KOÇAK

The Best Of album by Teardrop Explodes is a must-have for fans of the post-punk genre. The album features all of the band's greatest hits, including "Reward," "Treason," and "Passionate Friend." The collection also includes some lesser-known tracks, giving listeners a chance to discover some hidden gems.

The album showcases the band's unique sound, which blends elements of punk, new wave, and psychedelia. Frontman Julian Cope's distinctive vocals and quirky lyrics are a standout feature of the album, adding an extra layer of depth to the already complex instrumentation.

First time I heard Teardrop Exolodes was on the Phil Ross show, Radio Merseyside. He played Camera Camera.
When I Dream should’ve been a huge hit but it didn’t get the airplay it deserved. Radio One were probably too busy playing Captain Beaky or similar shabite.

I owned all the Zoo singles and Lake Placid. Swapped them all for my first hit of E in 1989. Seemed right then, feels wrong now. Bugger

Saw them in Leeds in 1980. Always loved this song. Thanks always Dean.

This IMMEDIATELY takes me back the dancefloor at SPIT in Boston, where this was a huge hit when it came out!

Way ahead of their time.

It was this week when I learned this song existed. HOW is that even possible? Because I AM THE 1980s. I was there when MTV was launched. I was dropping quarters at arcades back in 1981. I had leather ties. And starter jackets. And feathered hair. And I was beat up by bullies driving Camaros. And I saw Ferris when it first came out in theaters. And my first girlfriend wore banana clips in her hair and we listened to the Femmes and Bowie and early REM before we had our braces off. I had AFoS LP's on my bookshelf and U2's "War" poster on my wall. Yet .... it took me until 2022 to hear this specific song for the first time? How? What? Who? Where?

I just heard this great song for the first ever time in two separate bars in Columbus, Ohio within an hour. What’s that all about?

I heard this track on the radio only once, when I was a very young lad being sick at home. It has since never left my head (I go pahpahpah...) but could not find the song again as the only thing I knew was that the band was from Liverpool. No bandname, no title, no lyrics. And now today, 42 years later I have found it! MAGIC.
