Our Take
Ah, The Necessaries - Completely Necessary (Anthology 1978-1982), what a blast from the past! This compilation album is like discovering a vintage gem in a thrift store - quirky, eclectic, and completely unexpected. From the opening track "You Can Borrow My Car" to the closing notes of "More Real", The Necessaries take you on a time-travelling journey through the vibrant New York music scene of the late '70s and early '80s. With their infectious blend of pop, punk, and new wave influences, The Necessaries manage to defy categorization and create something truly unique. Tracks like "Runaway Child" and "Driving and Talking at the Same Time" showcase the band's knack for catchy hooks and clever lyrics, while songs like "The Finish Line" and "Night Letter" delve deeper into more introspective and experimental territory. The production quality on this anthology is top-notch, allowing the listener to fully appreciate the raw energy and passion that The Necessaries bring to each and every track. Whether you're a longtime fan or a newcomer to their sound, Completely Necessary is an essential addition to any music collection. So, dear readers, do yourself a favour and give The Necessaries a listen. Trust me, you won't regret it. This anthology is the perfect blend of nostalgia and innovation, making it a must-have for any music enthusiast. Cheers to The Necessaries for timeless tunes that are, well, completely necessary.
