Mostly from the 80s, not many hits & almost no disco tracks Advantages: The 6 number 1 records Disadvantages: The rest of the tracks are rubbish Well the title itself is a misnomer for starters as the disco era was a fairly short period during the mid 1970's as disco was ousted from the music scene by Punk and the 80's were ruled by 2 Tone Ska then the New Romantics and synth music at least as far as the UK went any way. Disco may have lived on into the 80's in America but it was replaced by electro, hip hop then rap followed by House music. Wikipedia even openly admits that disco died in ... ...elsewhere during the 1980s", probably in less fashionable countries that hadn't adopted whatever was popular from England or America by then. Take it from someone who lived through all 3 decades, disco was dead and gone by the 1980's. So whats on this album then? 1. High Energy - Evelyn Thomas. This was #1 in a few places in 1984 but can't really be classed as disco even though its origins are rooted there. The track name did spawn a new musical ... atytyut2434 23.07.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Greatest Disco Hits Of 70's 80's 90's - Various Artists	Originality Lyrics Quality and consistency...

r&b classics only gives you old timers nothing new (shame) Advantages: lots of differnet artists Disadvantages: so many you get mixed up this cd full of your old r and b songs is full of collabirations for me a young teenager this doesnt really satisfy my needs half of the artists are really ancient. not up to scratch with the new stuff, cant even touch the emotion of quality of new artists. but this cd isnt all bad it does have a few pro's like: it has a few decent artists but just not that many and this cd will give you so many hours of sing song fun. it has so many different ... matty2k9 28.10.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of 100 R&B Classics (Parental Advisory) - Various Artists	Originality Lyrics Quality and consistency...

Slightly disappointed Advantages: 2 Discs Disadvantages: Not so good tracks Much to say, much to say. I admit that there are very few good tracks on this CD, look I am even using the word good, Ministry of Sound compilations are meant to be great! I found that too many of the tunes on this CD were rather old and already over played, for example MyMyMy by Armand van Helden. I do admit that there are some very good songs like Feel the Vibe by Axwell and A Studio- S.O.S. The rest I am largley disappointed especially disc two ... reeemio 08.02.2006 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of Funky House Sessions (A Glittering Mix Of Sexy House & Funky Disco) - Various Artists	Originality Lyrics Quality and consistency...

The best album you will ever buy! Advantages: Everything! Disadvantages: i can't think of one I absolutey adore this album, the best money i have ever spent. I bought this album only a few months ago after being introduces to jazz and funk, and i'm still not bored of it. I love it, no matter how bad your days been it really gets you up and dancing. It contains some amazing artists like the Meters, Huey Piano Smith, Explosions, and Eddie Bo. I bought is for only £8 including postage, its brilliant. It doesn't matter what kind of music your ... ...at all ages. Its great to get dancing to but really good for relxaing too, i always have it on in the background to study. If you haven't already got one, its the perfect CD to start your Funk collection. It also comes with a great booklet that tells you all about the style of music and the different artist on the CD to give you more of an insight of what went into the music, and a little leaflet with some other fabulous CD suggestions that are definately ... xleafx 24.03.2007 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of New Orleans Funk (The Original Sound Of Funk 1960-1975) - Various Artists	Originality Lyrics Quality and consistency...

Classic Euphoria 3CD Advantages: Great tracks, classic mixing, seriously chilled. Disadvantages: Avoid second-hand copies.......... ...is much better than the Classic Euphoria Level 2 which I also have. Highly chilled and with top tracks like; Chicane "Saltwater", Art of Trance "Madagacar", William Orbit " Barber's Adagio for Strings", Olive "You're Not Alone", Push "Strange World", to name but a few. It features long mixes and about 3 "Chicane" numbers which are all brilliant. Not deeply chilled but not intrusive. Sit down and relax to this compilation, it does wonders for me. ...
