5.0 out of 5 stars A Freestyle Collection Must-Have, August 11, 1998

By 

Jeff Fillion ([e-mail]) (Lansing, Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Freestyle Greatest Hits: The Complete Collection, Vol. 8 (Audio CD)

This disc is the eighth of a 10-disc series that is the definitive collection of Freestyle music. The series features a variety of songs from the most popular artists of the genre, including many hard-to-find classics. All discs include comprehensive liner notes charting the history of Freestyle music (except Volumes 8 through 10, which were later added to the series). A must-have collection for anyone interested in dance music from the mid-1980s through the early 1990s.

Disc Eight Highlights: Volumes 1 through 7 were, for the most part, chronological in the listing of songs. Volume 8 offers a variety of hits that span Freestyle's popular period, including "Point of No Return" by Exposé, "If You Leave Me Now" by Jaya, "Notice Me" by Sandeé, and "My Heart Gets All The Breaks" by Monet. Also, Brenda K. Starr appears with "Pickin' Up Pieces." "Diamond Girl," the classic, radio-favorite by Nice & Wild is also! included.

This volume also contains classics by Stevie B, Debbie Deb, Sweet Sensation, Will To Power, Laissez Faire, Trinere, Cynthia, and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot Freestyle, July 8, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Freestyle Greatest Hits: The Complete Collection, Vol. 8 (Audio CD)

Freestyle Music is the best kind of music there is. Volume Eight of this series is the next best CD next to Volume One. Lot of dark, fast beats. Best is "When I Hear Music" by Debbie Deb, followed by "Picking up Pieces" by Brenda K. Starr.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the wait, July 14, 2002

I remember the golden days of freestyle and this is the best. I have the whole collection and I wouldn't trade it for the world. In fact, I think if my house ever caught on fire, this would be the only thing I'd save! Take it from a girl from the Bronx, you won't go wrong with this.
