By the end of the '90s, '80s nostalgia had fully blossomed, and there were more compilations of '80s one-hit wonders than there were vertical inches in the infamous Flock of Seagulls hairdo. Rhino Records has always been known for its ability to put together definitive collections, though, and this one definitely hits many of the decade's pop/new wave high points. Those wanting to delve more deeply into the subject should check out Rhino's fantastic JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH series, which features many impressive obscurities. NEW WAVE PARTY, however, concentrates strictly on the hits. It's all here, from Toni Basil's cheerleader anthem "Mickey" to Thomas Dolby's synth-pop classic "She Blinded Me With Science" and Haircut One Hundred's engagingly twee "Love Plus One." It's hard to figure why the Cars' 1978 hit "Just What I Needed" is here, but it may be argued that with their skinny ties, nerdy glasses, and tight-wound sound, they were an '80s group even back in the '70s.
