The Unknown Beauty Of The 80s Vol. 160

Postby Rissan » Wed Jun 09, 2021 2:06 am

This week I present you a thematic compilation about the Whale.
Since there are not so many Whale songs, I had to stretch the time period a bit, so these are not all eighties songs. Some are seventies, 1977 and 1978 to be precise, and nineties, 1990 and 1994 to be precise, which overall end up as a nice compilation and offers you a mixture of Prog, New Wave, Synthpop, Folk, and Berliner School Ambient. The link will be up for a week.

The Tracks:

01. Tangerine Dream - Songs Of The Whale - From Dawn (5:02)
02. Yes - Don't Kill The Whale (3:55)
03. Alphaville - Whales (4:31)
04. Cocteau Twins - Whales Tails (3:16)
05. Ohama - Of Whales (4:36)
06. A-Ha - We're Looking For The Whales (3:42)
07. Guided By Voices - White Whale (2:39)
08. Anthony Phillips - Majestic Whales (2:46)
09. The Visitor - Indians And Whales (3:39)
10. Nik Kershaw - Save The Whale (6:04)
11. The Pogues - Greenland Whale Fisheries (2:36)
12. It Bites - Hunting The Whale (4:46)
13. Neutral Project - Around The Whales (6:29)
14. Pendragon - Whalespeak (3:02)
15. Tactics - Blue And White Future Whale (2:57)
16. Burning Sensations - Belly Of The Whale (4:59)
17. Electric Light Orchestra - The Whale (5:02)
18. The Dream Academy - Love (whales in love) (4:00)
19. Tangerine Dream - Songs Of The Whale - To Dusk (5:58)

As always, thank you for sharing another wonderful collection of tracks, Ris!

Funny, I was completely expecting to see "Whale Song" by DeFilm on here. 8)
