Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

A collection of well-known pop tunes, this record documents those ubiquitous tracks that have been played into the ground at nearly every sports facility in the country. Most, like "Whoomp! There It Is" and "Hip Hop Hooray," are undeniably catchy, and other tracks were downright splendid when they first appeared on the scene. Some even credit "Pump Up the Volume" with being a breakthrough for the electronic music scene of the late '80s and early '90s. Still, bringing musical innovation to light is not what the makers of this recording had in mind. It's all about the trashy glitz, fleeting glories, and mindless greed of late-20-century American sports. Revel in its dubious charms, and risk having your brains turn to mush while a permanent grin takes over your face. --Matthew Cooke

1.0 out of 5 stars love the songs, HATE the album June 6, 2012
Format:MP3 Music
I LOVE the songs, but HATE this album. Why? The crowd cheers. Others here have mentioned this and warned about it, I should have listened.

I love these songs, they were what was popular when i was younger. I thought how could I go wrong. well, jock jams showed me how, with 30 seconds of 'canned crowd cheers' before every song. picture a 50/50 sound mix of canned-cheering at the beginning of every song.. thats what you get with this album. its terrible. I mean utterly unlistenable.

Had the cheering not been on there this would have been a 5 star glowing review of great energetic jams. As it stands I wish i could give it negative stars. they ruined the songs. I thought it couldnt possibly be as bad as others have said it is.. well.. it can be and it is.

after 30 seconds per song they are the songs you know.

1.0 out of 5 stars Word of warning May 15, 2011
Format:Audio CD
Rhino inexplicably thought these songs would benefit from having a canned layer of fans "cheering" between and over the intros to each song - as if they were being played over the PA at your local sports arena. The effect, to me, is tedious from the start and intrudes on each track. I don't know under what conditions this would be appealing, but if you're looking for the music included here, I'd strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars best workout CD ever October 17, 2004
By SBP
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Back in the day my rowing team used to do land workouts to this CD just about every day. It is the best album that I know of to work out to. If you need some music to get you fired up and ready to burn some calories or lift some weights, this is an excellent CD.

2.0 out of 5 stars Cheap Copy
This is not an original! I owned the true original in the 80's and this is a decent copy with several imperfections. Certainly a disappointment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tunes
I love this album! Great, high energy mix. Plus, there's the canned stadium sounds to make you feel like your being cheered on. Such a guilty pleasure. It's great!
