4.0 out of 5 stars Not always the complete versions, August 3, 2001

This review is from: The Sugarhill Gang Vs. Grandmaster Flash - The Greatest Hits (Audio CD)

This collection is good in that it contains tracks that are not available anywhere else , such as the complete version of "Sugarhill Groove" (an underrated 1980 lp track with Tito Puente guesting on drums, "Passion Play"(also from the same Lp), a well-edited version of "Hot Hot Summer Day" (thankfully missing the more annoying parts), and the mix classic "Grandmaster Flash On the Wheels of Steel." However, most of the better-known tunes are incomplete versions on this CD. But it's still worhtwhile for reviving the lesser known early rap tunes from Sugarhill records to complete your collection.
