From Depeche Mode to Yaz to Erasure, everything Vince Clarke touches turns to gold. This compilation provides all the evidence necessary to bestow upon Clarke the title "synth god".The biggest hits are "Little Respect" and "Who Needs Love (Like That)", but each song stands on its own as a great New Wave composition, based on the powerful and unique vocals of Andy Bell and the fantastic synthesizer soundscapes (all 100% analog!) of Clarke."Victim of Love" (my fave), "Oh L'Amour", and "Stop!" are other highlights on this CD, which is well worth the money for any fan of 80s music.One other note: Erasure has had several albums after the release of this compilation (most notably the masterpiece "I Say, I Say, I Say", in 1994), so "Pop! 20 Hits" cannot be said to be representative of their career as a whole. Still, it's worth owning for its summary of the band's first decade of production.
