[QUOTE=ZombieHavoc;4361062]the new wave tag gets liberally applied a lot, but I think The Dictators being tagged with it is the strangest I've seen.[/QUOTE]
The whole New Wave movement derived from first-wave Punk, so I'm not surprised, nor is the first time I see them grouped with the bunch. It's hard to assign a unison tone to the genre, since it was more of a statement made by record companies constantly pushing new blood to the scene, rather than allowing to some of them to leave a lasting legacy. Everybody wanted to be different, but only few managed to keep their name or song a public knowledge. (Yes, a song as in singular.) I think, what people hear now from the late 70's and early 80's clumped together as New Wave is very pop oriented, therefore The Dictators stand out like a sore thumb, but back in the days they fit the bill.

"According" (;)) to wiki, they are not related, but they did collaborate.
I was laughing a lot listening to this CD, as well.
For reasons I can't explain, on the end I was thinking of... YMCA, Lambada and Macarena.

All good things come to an end.
Without a comprehensive and reliable index of all the titles released within the "Risky Business" series, I can't tell you whether this CD closes the run or not, but I can say it is the one that completes my collection. If you know of any additional RB compilation not mentioned here, feel free to let me know.

That is the best list there is, but it only shows 39 titles (some of them appear twice, as CDs and Cassettes).
I have 44 different titles in total.
Few of mine aren't listed on Discogs.
