In an era of flamboyance and dressing up in pop, China Crisis had an almost spectral presence; a group concerned with their music, but not their image; with crafting delicate, affecting songs that occasionally collided with the UK charts. Enjoy this captivating selection of some of their greatest works from the 80s and hear again the soft, melodic strangeness of tracks such as ‘Christian’, ‘Wishful Thinking’ and ‘Black Man Ray’ that typify the very best of China Crisis. Includes One top 10 and Four top twenty hits, with sleevenotes and compilation by respected music journalist Daryl Easlea.
