It's been a long time coming

"I've been looking for MCL's "New York" on CD for over 20 years. This week that search has ended. I don't know how I finally stumbled across this release, but i'm glad I did. I bought it immediately and watched my mailbox like a hawk until it arrived. The "Dancefloor Cut Mix" is the mix that I remember best from the 12" vinyl record I used to listen to (and still own). I have been close to trying to figure out how to digitize my 12" in the last few years, but luckily I found this first. The sound is great - let me state that I'm no audiophile and won't get into re-master quality etc.. - but considering my memory of this track has pops and scratches from being on vinyl - it's amazing. None of that here. For me the other 11 tracks on this disc are icing. It's always great to have Razormaid mixes of anything - and you get 6 on this disc. If you are hoping for a booklet, you're out of luck. The front insert is double sided with the track listing on the reverse. The original 1986 and 1987 publising dates are nowhere to be found on the inserts either. All tracks are dated 2006 ZXY Music."

Another great blast from the 80s past!

"I accidentally bumped into this CD while casually browsing around, and I am glad that I found it. A bit pricey, but worth the collection if you liked their club hits during the late 80s.

Best album ever bought

"No songs on this album would leave you in disappointment.



You might love this album - the best of the 1980s and Nine Inch Nails from the 1990s in one package. (They have nothing to do with each other, respectively.)



"New York" was their main hit.



If you are a scientist, you should grab a copy! (Figuratively.) Check out Kraftwerk and Thomas Dolby, IMO some of the best 'technically-influenced' artists from their time.



Generally, Razormaid! are extended and/or remixed versions of original hit tracks. (What I have experienced with 'newly discovered' 1980s artists.)"
