The tracklist translated!
1. Diana Ross - Love Hangover
2. Eddie Kendricks - He's A Friend
3. The Jackson 5 - Forever Came Today
4. Finis Henderson - Skip To My Lou
5. Teena Marie - I Need Your Lovin' [[M+M Ravin All Night Long Mix)
6. Willie Hutch - Brother's Gonna Work It Out [[Joey Negro Return of the Mac Mix)
7. The Jackson 5 - The Life Of The Party
8. Platinum Hook - Standing On The Verge
9. The Supremes - Let Yourself Go
10. The Originals - Down To Love Town
11. Smokey Robinson - Get Ready
12. Magic Disco Machine - Scratchin'
13. Diana Ross - The Boss
14. Eddie Kendricks - Goin' Up In Smoke
15. The Temptations - Keep Holding On
16. Reuben Howell - You Made Your Bed
Pretty good!!!!
Why the same old songs that are available on just about every compilation? Motown had plenty of great dance tunes that could have been used. I will buy the set for the Reuben Howell "You Made Your Bed".
I'd give it a chance, for Finis Henderson. Yes, his album's been reissued on Japan quite a few times, but they just as rapidly become expensive, due to each being out of limited print.Quote:

Agreed. that even if it's for a specialty dance aficionado crowd, the collection still plays it too "safe" under the "security" of the same iconic big names - Diana Ross, Jackson Five, Temptations, Smokey Robinson.
At the very least, could had halved the Diana Ross, Jackson Five, Eddie Kendricks tracks to one rather than two, for maybe Tata Vega, Dazz Band, and Michael Lovesmith.
I agree. They've taken the same approach as they did with re-releasing the 60s classics.Quote:

CD 1 runs for 86 minutes! CD 2 70 minutes.
That's excellent service. Mine was despatched 24th September and hasn't got here yet. That's strange on the run times? I thought 80 minutes was maximum to be honest. Is it a continuous mix?Quote:

Boy, that's news to me, too, Jack. Like Danno, I, too, had always heard [[or read) that 80 minutes was the max recording time on CDs. How on earth did you manage to squeeze in 90 minutes? I would imagine it would be impossible for some CD players to read a disc that full.Quote:

Hey Gary, I just added tracks up to around 90 minutes on that recordable cd and my cdplayer does not have a problem with it.
Hey Danno, you also had metal cassettes, I think Maxwell :)
I think it was about 1981 when I bought a TDK metal cassette. I thought I'd give it a try to compare quality. I was on an apprentice's wage at the time and the tape cost me £5 :eek:. If I spent the same percentage of my current weekly wage, you'd be talking over £60!!! I never bought another one and compromised with chrome once I discovered multi-packs were much cheaper.Quote:

What version of Let Yourself Go is it? that track listing says "edit"
what is the duration of the song?
Let Yourself Go : 3'17"Quote:

So three weeks on and mine got here at last. Also got stung for duty so it ended up costing thirty something pounds. Will consider Amazon etc next time. Well impressed with sound on disc one. The 86 minutes hasn't affected quality. I probably could've swerved Teena M's remix version. Shame there was never a longer mix of skip to my lou which sounded sublime on this. Disc two tomorrow. Apart from the cost, happy with the cd
Great advice! I ordered my copy today : )Quote:
