CD reissue. Bow Wow Wow was a punk-pop confection masterminded by impresario Malcolm McLaren. After the dust raised by the implosion of the Sex Pistols had settled, McLaren poached Adam Ants backing band, suggested a world music bent inspired by Burundi Black. He paired the skeptical Ants with one 14-year-old Annabelle Lwin, whom he'd "discovered" working at a dry cleaners. This compilation consists of all four tracks from Bow Wow Wow's EP 'The Last Of The Mohicans' and the hit-single "Baby, Oh No". Afterwards five tracks from their debut album 'See Jungle'. The title song "I Want Candy" opening with a tropical beat is a song covered from the Strangeloves. It's a famous example of a song that uses the Bo Diddley beat.
This is an early RCA mastering, not compressed to oblivion like most the recent collections, the sound is spectacularly good on this. "Baby, Oh No" is strikingly better sounding than on the more recent hits packages - indeed it's a completely different mix than what's on "The Best Of" CD, where the drums and bass sound like they're clipping.
