All Music Guide

Arista celebrated its 30th anniversary by releasing The Heritage Series, spotlighting the most popular artists on the label. The Thompson Twins' installment in The Heritage Series is pretty much a straight hits collection. While they were at Arista, the Thompson Twins had such hits as "In the Name of Love," "Lies," "Hold Me Now," "Lay Your Hands on Me" and "King for a Day." All those songs are here, along with some highlights from their albums, providing a nice retrospective of their time with Arista.
