this CD contains about a number of classic freestyle tracks in both NY & Miami style (mostly from artists signed at one point to Warner/Atlantic).

what's right about this CD is it includes a number of hard to find freestyle tracks in CD digitized format, notably Genuine Parts' enjoyable Did it feel like love (their best releases came later - I don't care for you and Start our love again), Giggles' cool Hot Spot (lesser known follow up to Love Letter), Company B - Perfect Lover (good but less good than Jam on me, Fascinated & Full circle) & Chrissy I-eece's decent You should know by now (not as good as the brilliant Love Desire but much better than Can you see it). It also includes classics everyone will know from the amazing Sweet Sensation & Shannon & Corina & Cynthia, and some less exciting crossover freestyle from Linear & Pajama Party.

what I don't like about this CD - it claims to contain various extended club mixes, when in fact it for the most part contains short mixes or (sometimes poorly) edited mixes of the club mixes. this is rather misleading to freestyle and club fans seeking out the original 12" mixes

all in all, a good (but not the best) collection of classic freestyle. if it's 12" mixes you want, check out freestyle's best extended mixes on Cutting and the 12"s of micmac on MicMac, each containing full club mixes of their top releases

This CD is special for me because i collect freestyle music, specially mixed and in this cd i found a song that i try to find 3 years ago{song 13}.It's hot{MARK ANTHONY IN HIS FIRST GENERATION OF MUSIC,FREESTYLE}.Now i try to find mixed with anothers hot songs.Please help me to find more of freestyle music because it's hard to find here in P.R.

This CD does take you back to the 80's with these dance club hits. Good CD to listen to while you're hanging out enjoying a good BBQ with Friends!

This CD is one of my favorites, it has some hard to find freestyle tracks like Chrissy I-Eece's "You Should Know By Now" and Corina's "Give Me Back My Heart".

I say buy this CD, you won't regret it. The only thing that I noticed was that it did not have the full versions of the songs like the club versions (now that would of been great), I would say there more like radio edits.

In my freestyle collection I have lots of freestyle songs & mixes and I did notice that this songs were like radio edits, but that's just me being picky.

If you like OLD SCHOOL freestyle, pick this one up. It has a three great songs that you won't find in the "Greatest Beats" or "Explosion" collections - Security, I Need You, and Give Me Back My Heart. If you've never listened to post-1991 Freestyle, pick up a NEW SCHOOL mix CD also, such as DMA's Freestyle Flava, Freestyle Forever, or Freestyle Boom.

wher else can can you find Debbie Deb's tune which is like a roller skating classic. Corina is the bomb and the rest of the cd rips. perfect for partys or to just cleaning the house and singing all the songs out loud.

I have been a fan of freestyle music for years. I would definately recommend this cd to anyone who loves freestyle music. The cd has a good variety of artists that mix well throughout the whole album.

This CD not only sounds great, but offers some hard to find selections that were even hard to find when the songs were released. Selections are from '83 to '91, and offer a nice mix of both New York and Miami Freestyle. If you're a fan of good Freestyle, then this is a must have for any collector.
