Comments for Dalek I Love You, Compass Kum'pas

holes, great big ones .... that was a song about the world !! perfect antidote to depression, great sense of humour!

This record changed my life, So much so that I gave up a good career to seek out this group so that I could manage them. The members of dalek are still my friends. For more info Email me. Paul Collister paulc@dial.pipex.com

Perhaps not really synthpop, as conventional instruments featureextensively, this was nonetheless part of a "new" sound atthe dawn of the 80`s. This highly-praised record containswarm, inventive pop with lots of open spaces in it.

Brings back great memories. What a band! I use to listen to them every night whilst bluffing my way through my homework. Those were the days.

Definitely up there wih the great undiscovered epics! I have 2 copies of the LP one with a white cover, the other red (my brother didn't want his copy any more) and I heard a CD with extra material was released some time... Would OMD ever have existed if Andy hadn't spent a month in dalek i ?

23 years on, and still a GENIUS album. Words almost fail me, but, suffice to say that this album has more wit and invention than all the usual tedious suspects who dominate the "Greatest All-Time Album" sheep-like consensus. Along with the similarly, ridiculously underrated Paul Simpson (Teardrop / Wild Swans / Care / Skyray), this is the best music to ever come out of Liverpool! ste moore, London

I am seeking a copy of compass like there is no tommorrow! A friend found some tracks online mostly from the album Dalek I love you but it is compass that I remember! I was together with friends and we had both the white covered and the red covered albums and they were on the turntable everyday morning, afternoon and night! The musical sensations were particularly appreciated in the hazy atmosphere of massive hashish imbication but anyone would admit that the album is one of the true masterpieces of that rich Liverpool scene of the late 70s early 80s!
