Editorial Reviews

In 1976, at a total cost of £45, Nick Lowe's "Heart of the City" launched Stiff Records, a label that soon became one of the most influential record labels of the punk and new wave era. Unfortunately, some of their greatest hits--songs by the Damned, Elvis Costello, and Madness--are missing from this compilation, but there's still a fine litany of names here. Besides the enduring talents of Lowe, Costello, and Ian Dury (all of whom appeared on Stiff's awesome first tour), it was mavericks such as Jona Lewie ("Stop the Cavalry"), Wreckless Eric ("Whole Wide World"), and Lene Lovich ("Lucky Number") who made Stiff so special. It all still feels like pure pop for now people. --Patrick Humphries
