5.0 out of 5 stars The best Ultimate Dance Party!, April 11, 2001

Sure, the mixing isn't the best, and the songs are older, but this compilation can still start a party easily. The whole album is upbeat and has many great hits. The album starts out with a lot of dance pop classics. There is Gina G's Ooh Ahh (Just A Little Bit), La Bouche's Sweet Dreams, Crystal Water's 100% Pure Love and the huge hit Jellyhead by Crush. Toni Braxton's huge ballad Un Break My Heart gets a upbeat remix by two of today's biggest remixers: Soul Solution and Hex Hector. The result is stunning, and Toni's vocals work perfectly with the beats. Whitney Houston covers Annie Lennox's Step By Step, which leads into the song Insomnia, which has kind of a futuristic feel to it. Two of the next songs, Mo Money Mo Problems and the outstanding Things Just Ain't The Same are very hip-hop/R&B styled and show the future of Ultimate Dance Party compilations, as this was the last one that was mostly dance. With just a few songs left, they manage to pull together some awesome tracks, including the childish but fun The Child Inside and Mark Morrison's upbeat and bouncy Return Of The Mack. And of course no dance compilation would be complete without the famous What Is Love from the Saturday Night Live skits. This compilation is one of the best (And funnest) out there. Definately pick this up! It's worth the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good music, good beat, September 23, 1999

Most of the dance songs in the album are popular and well-known in dance clubs. So, having this CD is like owning your dance club. Although the music is non-stop from track to track, the mixing between songs is sometimes not that well done. Anyway, I like this CD very much.

5.0 out of 5 stars A CD full of excellent dance hits, July 8, 1998

Ultimate Dance Party 1997 was great. Now it's 1998 and they've done it again. Almost every song on this CD makes you want to get up and dance, especailly the version of Deborah Cox's "Things Just Ain't The Same". This song is hot. It's impossible to just sit still when you hear it. There's a nice variety here ranging from straight out dance songs, R & B, hip hop and even techno. One remix is called "Insomnia" by Faithless and that's a perfect way to describe this CD. You'll want to stay up all night and not miss a single beat of this fantastic CD. I'm looking forward to the 1999 version.
