4.0 out of 5 stars ESSENTIAL DEEP HOUSE/GARAGE FOR THE SOUL, BUT..., January 3, 2003

I love TEN CITY, always have...in fact, my FIRST experience hearing "HOUSE MUSIC" was dancing at CATCH ONE in the mid-80s in L.A. and hearing the exhilarating rush of "THAT'S THE WAY LOVE IS" booming over the loud speakers in the dark, eyes closed, hands in the air - now that's when house was a feeling...THIS "best of" compilation is a GREAT place to start, but I wish the re-isse had included some other amazing but often overlooked Ten City gems, like "SUPERFICIAL PEOPLE" (later remade by KENNY BOBIEN!) and the KERRI CHANDLER-produced track "THICK N THIN" to round out the package, but hey, I am a "completist" so this is minor quibbling...this CD is worth it's weight in GOLD, and a sad reminder that much of what passes for "dance/house music" these days is a largely joylous, soulless affair - at least what is played in most clubs, esp in LA - maybe I need to move to New York and go to THE SHELTER?! -

5.0 out of 5 stars Chicago style house, September 21, 2003

Steve Silk "69th stonyisland" (Germany) - See all my reviews

I was born and raised on house music as a chicago native believe me Ten City set the standard as one of the first house acts to perform live. Ifd you like real house music from chicago from the 85-89 time frame then Ten City is the choice. Thats the way love is just happens to be one of the greatest songs ever written! Devotion is another classic this set should have had a couple of more songs but over all it's pretty hot. byron stingly should have stayed with this original group because his solo joints have been pure garbage! he got away from the deep dish chicago style and went techno and any real house fan hates techno. holla

THEY JUST DON'T MAKE HOUSE LIKE THIS ANYMORE-THIS ALBUM IS WHAT TRUE SOULFUL HOUSE IS ALL ABOUT-THE HOUSE FROM THE MID 80'S AND EARLY 90'S WHICH GOT ITS START FROM THE CLUBS IN CHICAGO-THE LEAD SINGER SOUNDS LIKE THE LEGENDARY SYLVESTER-THE BASS PLAYING IS THUMPING-AND I LOVE THE PIANO PLAYING TOO-MARSHALL JEFFERSON'S INFLUENCE ON TEN CITY'S MUSIC IS OBVIOUS-THEY NEED TO PUT OUT A NEW ALBUM-BECAUSE THE DANCE MUSIC TODAY CAN'T COMPARE-
