If you have some extra cash, don`t hasitate to buy all albums from Lime. You won`t regret.
Free Music Review: Gin, Tonic and a Twist of Lime Hit: 4 StarsI remember dancing to these songs in the 80's. I really love (almost) ever song on this CD. I've played it through three times already and can't wait to start it again! I can do without "Take It Up", "Gold Digger" and "A Man and A Woman", but they're not horrible. I do wish "On the Grid" was on this CD. This sound quality is flawless. If you're looking to bring back the memories of the 80's, buy this CD, you will NOT regret it! :-)
Free Music Review: Marvelous! Hit: 5 StarsLime was never popular. Good! Their songs are not overproduced , and that makes each one a hit. There is nothing wrong with the remixes. It's not like they are house mixes. These are just remixes that were somewhat like B-sides to the singles, which are as good as the original songs. Some loops and dubs are placed over the original hits, thus mantaining the feel and sound as when you first heard it. Suitable for 80's club DJs for the album's extended versions.
Free Music Review: Hard core dance music from the 80's Hit: 5 StarsIn the 1980's, dance music was the natural evolution of what had been formerly called disco in the 1970's. The beat was a bit faster and there were more synthesizers in the mix, but it was still disco all grown up. That said, "disco" was a dirty word in most dance clubs in the 1980's. The U.S. was rebelling against anything that smacked of disco as the 1980's began. However, in the dance clubs, disco was now this different, more electric sounding music. Typically that same music didn't find it's way onto the radio stations around the country. The reverse was often true, with a lot of the "new wave" music hitting the dance clubs, but ususally not the other way round. And the hit dance songs followed a strict path to mainstream dance club popularity: It was released to the gay bars and if it was a hit there, then it went on to the straight clubs - this could often take a year or more for the transition to take place.Lime was one of those groups that was a staple in the gay bars for many years before they ever hit the straight bar scene. With a driving bass beat in all their songs and a heavy synthesizer influence, Lime's songs were perfect for moving to. "Your Love" and "Angel Eyes" were two of the most popular. However, you'll be hard pressed to find a bad song on this album. No, you'll probably not find any of these greatest hits on the Top 40, but you'll definitely take yourself down memory lane with these great hit songs from the dance club era of the 1980's!
Free Music Review: lime import review Hit: 5 Starsoverall, i thought the cd was great. the sounds that lime were doing along the period of disco's demise were refreshing. i can only say that i wished that there had been tracks like "on the grid", "do your time on the planet", "say you love me", "cutie pie", and "did you see that girl" included on the cd as well. its surprising to me there arent tons of cover versions out there done by other artists. however , i did buy Labouche's album "SoS" and they had covered "unexpected lovers" on it. i guess the reason why some of the hits like did you see that girl werent on this compilation was that it wasnt a hit on the Matra label they were first signed with, but atlantic or atco or something like that. i have the twelve inch singles still as well as lime 2, lime 3, and the majority of their singles discography, still this was nice to hear that they hadnt been forgotten and are still available.
