Godley & Creme Body Of Work 1978-1988 Polydor/Caroline

One half of 10cc’s leftfield pop years 10cc was known for hits like Rubber

Bullets and I’m Not In Love – quirky pop, sometimes venturing into operatic, multi-layered opuses like One Night In Paris from The Original

Soundtrack album. The latter track was penned by Godley and Creme, which gives you a clue to the duo’s output when 10cc finally expired, and what you can expect here. These five discs cover a decade of darkly clever pop beginning with 1978’s L and finishing with B-sides and other ephemera. It’s a valuable document of a pair of infinitely capable songwriters adept at delivering the unexpected. It’s also slick, catchy and moreish – feast away!
