Great Collection of Hits,
By Scott Tsukamoto "TsukDude" (Henderson, NV USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Platinum & Gold Collection (Audio CD)
Real McCoy was one of the biggest dance sensations in the mid-90's, along with La Bouche, Haddaway, Ace Of Base, and Amber. Now, finally, America is seeing the "Best Of" collection. Having already had greatest hits CDs in Japan and Europe this collection may seem a bit skimpy, but it's still great, and it's a pretty good deal as well! This collection features all of Real McCoy's biggest hits, as well as the smaller hits. Here's a review of each track:* 01 Another Night (Radio Mix) (3:59) 10/10 - This track started it all for the Real McCoy! It topped both the US Club and Pop Charts! The Berman Bros later created a very similar song with Amber called "This Is Your Night". So overall, you're getting all of Real McCoy's biggest hits. Even though most of them weren't really big hits in the US. However eight of the songs twelve tracks can be found on Real McCoy's debut album "Another Night" so this is mainly recommended for casual fans and hardcore fans who want this just for their collection. Since Real McCoy only released two albums you might just want to pick those albums up and get more songs. But whatever you do enjoy the sound of the Real McCoy!

Great music but shoddy collection.,
This review is from: Platinum & Gold Collection (Audio CD)
This 12 track collection compiles selected tracks from Real McCoy's two albums 1995's "ANother Night" and 1997's "One More Time" and the result is a mixed bag. FIrst off I don't understand how they could really assemble a 'hits' or collection like this from just a mere two albums when there weren't enough singles to warrant this. Their first album was a smash hit and is still popular almost a decade later but their second album didn't come anywhere close to the success of the former. Now don't get me wrong, these are all great tracks and they are all classics in my book but even then, this is a poorly developed collection and the songs feel totally out of place. "Operator" is a great track but it is surely not the best closing track to any CD, compilation or proper studio-album. "Tonight" which is placed in the wrong track slot is the best closing track and it brilliantly closed out their "One More Time" album and their recording career on a high note. Not that this collection closes on a bad note by any means because "Operator" because it is a wonderful dance classic but the album feels like a cliffhanger. Overall, not a bad collection but they could really have done a much better job at assembling it.
