4.0 out of 5 stars Nice package, but not the required box set, May 16, 2000

Someday there will be a proper box set of Cyndi Lauper material. In the meantime, this "three-fer" will suffice for most listeners. It features the two 80s releases that most of her fans know and love--plus an early 90s recording ("Hat Full of Stars") which deserves to be heard.

And of course, the price is right. But the lack of inclusion of anything from "Night to Remember" is disappointing. The rock-crit establishment has spread the word that Cyndi's third release is a one-star affair. In reality, it's a vocal tour de force, which leaned on the pop side (which I guess in some corners is anathema) but was a perfectly valid step for someone who considered herself first and foremost a singer.

The ideal box set would also pick up some of b-sides of her singles ("Heading for the Moon" would be a must, but also "Cold"), live tracks and yes, of course, "The Goonies." That'd be good enough for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars missing songs, November 7, 2000

I also have a request for "Goonies R' Good Enough", but does anyone remember "I've Got A Whole In My Heart (That Goes All The Way To China)" from the extremely rare Vibes soundtrack? It might be fun to hear the theme song to "Pee-Wee's Playhouse" also. I hope that Cyndi comes out with an even better boxset that includes those songs. This stuff is really good though.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Goonies???, February 26, 1999

This would be the Cyndi Lauper CD to get if only it included "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough," which is out of print and very hard to find!
