4.0 out of 5 stars Nicky Sianos The Gallery, September 10, 2009

By	Lee Taylor - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I went to the gallery for a few years when it was downtown on huston and mercer and it was an incredible experience. It's in the last few years that a new generation of people are finally realizing how important , innovative and original nickys style of spinning records was. Needless to say I was pretty excited when I saw that this was being released.

It's got some great tunes but like all the other collections of recordings from that era, they fall short of recreating the feeling one had when actually there. When all is said and done, these tunes are great to revisit for both the people who were there and the ones who are just discovering this music now.
