Advantages: wide variety of music, great price Disadvantages: a couple of notable absences
overlooked.
Or so I thought . . .
Then one day in work we realised (while having a random conversation) that there was a whole plethora of new 90s compilation albums out there. Now - okay, we probably ALL own a couple of these from when we actually were IN the nineties . . . but these ones are different because they span the WHOLE 90s, not just a specific few months or one year from within the decade.
After perusing the various options on play.com, I finally settled on100Hits - 90s. Partly because with 100 songs and 5 CDs for less than a tenner is was pretty damn good value for money, and partly because there were a whole heap of songs on there that made me go "Oh my god, I had forgot ALL ABOUT THAT ONE!"
Most 90s album seem to embrace the dance genre that seemed so damn big at the time and forget that there were other types of music out ...
Advantages: The 6 number 1 records Disadvantages: The rest of the tracks are rubbish
France & Mexico & #1 on the US Billboard dance chart. It failed to chart in the UK, so we liked Sinitta but not her mum? Yep, she was Sinitta's mum!
10. Feet Don't Fail Me Now - Trammps. The only date I could find for this was 2006 and I could find no chart position at all, they were also listed as Soul as well as R&B. So not disco then.
11. We Are Invincible - 501's. From 1984 its another HI-NRG dance track, I can't find a chart position for this either in any countries chart so its unfair to be calling it a hit.
12. Love Machine - The Miracles. From 1975 and it was an actual disco hit too reaching #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 as well as #3 in the UK.
13. Bass (How Low Can You Go) - Simon Harris. From 1988 this was a House track if it was anything but it was a US Billboard Dance #1. So yes a hit, no not disco sorry.
14. Strut Your ...
Advantages: 18 number 1's! Disadvantages: Some of the tracks are a bit crap
a rather awful dance track that was FAR too popular and certainly didn't deserve to be either.
19. Killer - Adamski (was #1, 1990)
Adam Tinley and Seal Samuel got together and made magic, NRG may not have been a huge hit but when Seal provided vocals for Killer it made for a smash hit for both of them. Adam may not have followed up but Seal is still making music & releasing albums today. Its a great dance track that can still fill floors today.
This CD offers an impressive 11 #1's, 1 #2, 1#3 and 6 #4's. 2 tracks are from 90, 1 from 92, 1 from 93, 1 from 94, 1 from 95, 2 from 96, 1 from 97, 9 from 98 and finally 1 from 99.
Considering you get 18 number 1's from 39 tracks I think you get good value for money here. If you don't already own all of these then I'd say its well worth the money. Especially when you consider its 37p a track ...
