Well what can I say about this cd. I have been into rave music (happy hardcore) since 1993 and I have to say that this has some of the most classic hardcore anthems.
The album is on 2 discs with the first being mixed by dj slipmatt and the second by dj dougal - 2 of the best djs of the time.
I wasn't going to list all the tracks as ciao would say that I would be listing factual info from the product but will name them all anyway as ciao members think that the review would be better if you all knew what tunes were on the cd so here goes :

I can't remember how much this cd cost me as it was nearly ten years ago that I bought it !! it was also bought at a rave so do not know where anyone could buy it now but if anyone wants a copy then please email me and we can try and sort something out!!

Inside the cd case is a booklet which contains all the info about the tracks, ie track, artist and record label, the middle pages contain the merchandise range, page 6 has pics of the dj's at the events and then the back page tells you a little bit about helter skelter itself.
