This review is from: The Best of the S.O.S. Band (Audio Cassette)

Just a note to all those out there looking for this on CD. I live in Texas and have owned this CD for the past few years!!! Attempt to special order this from a local record store. The S.O.S. Band is the greatest!

By A Customer

This review is from: The Best of the S.O.S. Band (Audio Cassette)

This is an excellent album. From what I can see,this is only offered in the cassette form. This is a travisty! This needs to be offered on CD.

Please consider this request. I would like to purchase this as soon as it's made available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Soul at it's best!, July 17, 2001

By	Compton Norm (Compton , Ca) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Best of the S.O.S. Band (Audio Cassette)

Along with the Gap Band, Zapp, and Atlantic Starr, the S.O.S. Band put down some of the tightest R&B music of the 80's. It's a shame, however, that these groups' music is starting to get scarce especially on the original albums. Greatest hits are usually bad because not only do they give partial songs, but they tend to leave out songs that were never released as singles. If this is the only S.O.S. band you can find I suggest you jump on it. However, don't stop looking for the original albums. I hope sooner or later they'll release them on CD.
