Roxette World

13 July, 2007

I am finally at the point in exploring music from which I started some 12 years ago when ordered a copy of Roxette audio tape from some shop. It was the first piece of music that was my own, not parents’ old LPs, half-scratched and lacking LP player. Now I’ve got it all on CDs, the whole (or almost whole) Roxette music.

Pearls of Passion (1986, extended reissue 1997), Look Sharp (1988), Joyride (1991), Tourism (1992), Crash! Boom! Bang (1994), Have a Nice Day (1999), Room Service (2001), A Collection of Roxette Hits. Their 20 Greatest Hits (CD+DVD, there is also a CD only edition, 2006), All Videos Ever Made and More. The Complete Collection 1987-2001 (2001, DVD with 40 videos and 2 hour-long documentaries).

There are more CDs that generally contain tracks from the above CDs: The Pop Hits, The Ballad Hits, Baladas en Espanol, Greatest Hits – Don’t Bore Us – Get to the Chorus!, Rarities, The Roxbox 1986-2006 (a 6-CD collection of all music and videos).
