Billboard Review of Disco 3

From Billboard Magazine:

——————————-
The third volume in the Boys’ Disco concept series arrives in the
shadows of last year’s critically acclaimed, acoustic-primed studio
recording Release. Unlike its predecessors, which focused on remixes of
fave Pet Shop Boys moments, Disco 3 finds the British duo (Neil Tennant
and Chris Lowe) compiling a set of primarily new material, peppered with
only three universally known titles (‘London,’ ‘Home and Dry,’ and
‘Here’-all from Release). Bubbly tracks like the Barry White-sampling
‘Positive Role Model’ and ‘Somebody Else’s Business’ are outtakes from
the Release recording sessions. Conversely, both ‘Try It (I’m in Love
With a Married Man)’ and ‘If Looks Could Kill’ have their roots in 1983,
with the former penned that year by original Pet Shop Boys producer
Bobby ‘O’ Orlando and the latter only recently completed by the twosome.
Remixers on board include Felix da Housecat and Superchumbo. Disco 3
ends with a chilled-to-perfection, piano-fueled mix of ‘London.’-MP
