Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Good Selection of 80's Music BUT Far from the Best.......2006-02-11

This is Volume 2 of the Series and while the selections are good there are MANY others I think that are better qualified. FIRST OFF, this is a NON-STOP music CD. The tracks are NOT individual selections although most seem to be close to the entire song before the mix occurs. SECOND, "Too Turned On" by Alisha has a better sound quality of the track than the one that appears on her self-titled CD (although I was hoping it wasn't a non-stop version when I got it). THIRD, many of the tracks are what is known as "free-style" in the 80's. There is nothing wrong with that but it makes the Rick Astley track stand out like a sore thumb. Hopefully this will answer some questions for you about the product (that unfortunately I couldn't get answered) and help you to decide whether to purchase it or not.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent.......1998-11-26

PEBBLES, TIMEX SOCIAL CLUB, ALISHA, WILL TO POWER, TAYLOR DAYNE, RICK ASTLEY, NIA PEEPLES, KLYMAXX, TRINERE, and DINO make this a CD worth buying. Definitely one of the best 80's dance compilations available.
