Opening up a time capsule full of mall-hopping Valley Girls, the Go-Go's are back with RETURN TO THE VALLEY OF THE GO-GO'S, a collection of rarities, B-sides, and three new compositions. Certainly not the first all-female rock group in history, the Go-Go's were definitely the most popular.
Their surfy poppiness fit perfectly within the post-punk climate of the early '80s. Brimming with picturesque charm, they were marketed with the same comic book cuteness as the early Beatles. Back when the Go-Go's first gained popularity, the concept of an all-female band was still new to the media and to the Go-Go's fans.
RETURN TO THE VALLEY OF THE GO-GO'S is indispensible to any Go-Go's fan. In between songs from their three albums, RETURN TO THE VALLEY OF THE GO-GO'S treats the listener to rare rehearsal tapes from as early as 1979 and includes live recordings spanning their career. RETURN TO THE VALLEY OF THE GO-GO'S is a valuable time piece on post-punk pop, and anyone interested in the evolution of all-female bands.
Rolling Stone (12/29/94-1/12/95, p.173) - "...An embarassment of riches....It makes you want to pogo all over again."
Spin (1/95, pp.72-73) - Highly Recommended - "...RETURN TO THE VALLEY OF THE GO-GO's sound[s] cattier than ever, thanks largely to their amazing drummer...Schock fleshes out the music's Buzzcocks/Ramones fixation with her own libidinally propulsive beat..."
Entertainment Weekly (10/21/94, p.66) - "...The old stuff is the real joy here..." - Rating: A-
Alternative Press (3/95, p.81) - "...captures the Go-Go's in all of their guises--the rough'n'ready punk molls of their late-'70s genesis, the faint new wave Thunders squawk of their pre-debut-album live shows, and onto the increasingly effervescent purity of their studio career....hard to believe the best of this set is almost fifteen years old..."
