M - New York, London, Paris Munich (1979)

Of course, "Pop Muzik" was the only song on M's debut album, New York-London-Paris-Munich, to become a big hit ("Moonlight and Muzak" and "That's the Way the Money Goes" were minor chart entries in the U.K.), but there's actually quite a bit of entertaining music on the record. Granted, the sound of the record is more entertaining than the songwriting, but with its synthesized, danceable beats, big, catchy hooks, and glossy "futuristic" production, it's a terrific new wave artifact. [The Japanese CD release more than doubles the original release's running time with the bonus tracks "Fanfare," "Cry Myself to Sleep," the "Dead or a 'Live'" and James Stewart versions of "Cowboys and Indians," the single version of "Satisfy Your Lust," the single version of "Moderne Man," two different single versions of "M Factor," a remix of "Moonlight and Muzak," three different mixes of "Pop Muzik," and "Finale."] [AMG]
