Product Description
CD > POPULAR MUSIC > ROCK
Amazon.com essential recording
The naughtily titled Immaculate Collection culls 15 of Madonna's Top 10 singles from 1984 to mid-'90, plus 2 new ones that continued the run (the dirty, trunk-bumping funk of "Justify My Love"--a Lenny Kravitz production that justifies his entire career--and the danceable desperation of "Rescue Me"). Rooted in disco and classic AM pop from girl groups and ABBA to Strawberry Alarm Clock, Madonna made savvy, touching music throughout her first golden era. These tracks retain their sonic and historical significance while, like "She Loves You" or "Rocket Man," still brightening any space they're being played in. Far more than just a wise, irreverent image-maker--like the Beatles or Elton, come to think of it--Madonna during these years was the gift that kept on giving, forever fresh, sexy, hooky, and joyously sharp. --Rickey Wright

 Classic Madonna Hits August 16, 2010
MikeCPI (Green Bay, WI)
This CD is an excellent review of Madonna's first decade as a pop superstar - Most the 80's biggies are here, including the 12" only single "Into The Groove." Pure, hook-laden pop music. A good compilation for casual fans or those Lady GaGa listeners who are re-discovering the diva who wrote the book on shock imaging and self-promotion.
Still the BEST Madonna Collection There Is -- Cannot Be Topped ! June 8, 2010
Nandu (Los Angeles)
Anyone who survived the 1980's knows every one of these songs by heart, whether you're an admitted Madonna Fan or not. The genius behind Madonna's artistry is for each of these songs, you can still picture the video that accompanied it, playing endlessly on MTV. Of course the ones that stick out are her Marilyn Monroe impersonation in "Material Girl" where she dons a long pink satin gown almost an exact replica of the one Marilyn wore in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes". The choreography is perfection !
The more notorious ones are "Vogue" and "Justify My Love". How can you listen to "Vogue" without remembering her "Marie Antoinette" stage performance at the MTV Music Awards with her male backup dancers sticking their heads INSIDE her dress ! It seems like yesterday the public outcry and controversy that greeted Madonna's "Justify My Love" video only added more fuel to the fire -- EXACTLY what the "Material Girl" was looking for ! By today's standards, the video seems tame, but in 1991 it was unexplored territory and the public hadn't seen anything like it. Even being banned on MTV couldn't keep the song from shooting straight to # 1. Madonna was ALWAYS one or two steps ahead of the game, that's what makes her not only a great artist, but a marketer/promoter second to NONE.
The "Immaculate" CD is remastered to perfection, using the Q-Sound that is no longer in use by the recording industry, but at the time was all the rage. Some people don't like it's "Ultra Treble" sound where the high's are pronounced, but I feel it adds more definition and clarity to the overall sound. This CD will still be indispensable and timeless even in another 20 years.
