This ten-track budget-priced compilation draws from the vaults of Sony Music for Top 40 hits from 1982. Some of the hitmakers from Sony's Columbia label -- Paul McCartney, Journey, Neil Diamond, and Willie Nelson -- don't seem to have been available for compiling, but the set does include the number one hit "Who Can It Be Now?" by Men at Work and the gold singles "867-5309/Jenny" by Tommy Tutone and "Rosanna" by Toto. The music is for the most part mainstream pop/rock, cleanly produced and catchy, with songs like Karla Bonoff's "Personally" and Dan Fogelberg's "Leader of the Band" leaning more toward soft rock, and Loverboy's "When It's Over" and Eddie Money's "Think I'm in Love" more toward hard rock. Men at Work and Paul Carrack have new wave tendencies, but nothing here is too edgy. This isn't the kind of music that critics were favoring in the early '80s, but it is the kind of music that Top 40 radio was favoring, and it holds up as well-made pop nearly two decades later. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
