I dig it........2006-01-31

When choosing between this collection and their "Sex Packets" album, I went with this. I like "Sex Packets" alot, but half of that album is here, and half of this collection is that album. I also think the best of that really made it here too, not to mention the other seven tracks we get. I admit, a big plus with "Playwutchyalike" was getting "Kiss You Back". That track is awesome, and the rest here holds up as well. My only beef, like others have mentioned, is the edit of "Doowutchyalike". It fades out at around 4 minutes, when the full version is over twice that. That song had a great video too. Overall though, a good collection from one of the party/dance groups of rap.

Remember these tunes?.......2005-10-12

Worth having in your collection for The Humpty Dance and Doowutchyalike alone, which never fail to please audiences from 4 to 64 when played in the car or at parties. Not all the songs are up to that level, though. Sex Packets is probably the one to get; the short version of Doowutchyalike here really bugs me.

The correct DU greatest hits album to buy.......2005-09-14

This collection of DU's greatest hits is complete with "We Got More" from their more recent release Future Rhythm. If you're looking for DU's greatest hits, go with this one. The remastered collection contains many remixes, not original cuts.

That said, there are some "blemishes" on this disc. The version of "Doowutchyalike" on this album is shortened (it ends at the radio fade). And "Same Song," "Underwater Rimes," and "Wussup Wit the Luv" are non-original cuts (see the track listing for details). However, if you're going for a greatest hits, these songs probably aren't what you're worried about.

Enjoy and doowutchyalike.

Awesome album!.......2005-09-14

I never realized until now how great this 80's group is. Other than the awesome artwork on the cover, personally, the best songs on this cd are "Kiss you back" and "The Humpty Dance". I listen to it all the time! Great cd.

A must for fans!.......2005-08-04

This CD is a compilation of the best that is DU. It takes you back to the time and place where you first listened this this funky, fun music.

Album Description

In 1982, at the suggestion of the then Bad Brains manager, the late Dave Hahn, ROIR agreed for Hahn to executive produce and curate a compilation of the hottest young bands from the thriving NYC "thrash" scene. This compliation has become the most definitive thrash statement ever assembled and is today recognized as the "hallmark" for all thrash compliations. The original cassette released on CD with two bonus tracks. Twenty-four songs by twelve hardcore bands!

Customer Reviews:

thorough reminisence (which is good, I hope).......2007-01-01

I had this collection back in the day of "cassette only" ROIR releases, and it was my introduction to bands like Bad Brains and Adrenaline O.D., who have the best songs on this mix, as far as I am concerned. This collection also chronicles the earliest phase of the Beastie Boys (definitely, definitely pre-rap).

But aside from introducing some great names in punk rock, this collection also introduced me to the true insanity of punk. I was a beach-combing teenager on the Jersey shore, where you were an out-and-out freak if you didn't think that the Rolling Stones were the world's greatest rock 'n' roll band (and I didn't). I had dabbled a little in some Misfits, some Black Flag (I had played out the soundtrack to _Desperate Teenage Lovedolls_ to death on my turntable--why hasn't THAT one been rereleased too?), some Suicidal, and felt that I had gotten just a glimpse of what was out there. More importantly, I felt that others were privy to what the Jersey shore kept me alienated from. Odd to say, but the stuff I'd listened to so far seemed almost acceptable--my MOM even bopped along to some Misfits riffs.

I don't know how I had gotten a hold of this release from ROIR, or how I even got a ROIR catalog, but I did, and this was one of my first purchases with my paper-route money.

And wow...

Right from the start, The Mad kick in with "I Hate Music," which splits its verses with screeching noise and saxophones (would love to say that it was Zorn bleating his alto there, but no). All the way through False Prophets screeching, "I am the Taxidermist," this collection offered me what I had only previously subconsciously wanted--music that my mom couldn't bop to, music that others would sneer at when I walked along the street with my boom box cranked up. I would take this collection to the beach with me, and while I sunbathed, a halo of empty sand formed around me. (It probably didn't help that Adrenaline O.D.'s "Paul's Not Home" set my head to epileptic tapping.) I had to buy this release four different times, mainly because people would steal it from me. I'd like to think that I was spreading some punk virus in my sleepy shore town, but I really think that some Zep-head would pull it out of the tape deck and chucked it, insulted that there could be some non-Page-influenced sounds in the world.

This disc maintains everything I liked about my early discoveries of punk--poor sound quality, pure energy. Music that would disappear if you pushed your Dolby noise reduction button. I mentioned Adrenaline O.D. and Bad Brains before, but you'll also find amazing stuff by False Prophets, Undead, Even Worse (whose "Emptying the Madhouse" is also one of the best tracks on this collection), and The Mad.

So get this disc, and then get the soundtrack to _Desperate Teenage Lovedolls_ (don't worry, I haven't seen the movie either), then the soundtrack to _Return of the Living Dead_ (AND watch the movie--punk chicks stripping in graveyards!) and then play them all with your ear up against the speaker before retiring to watch _Urgh! A Music War_ or _Repo Man_. Then you'll know what the life of a shut-in punk in hostile territory felt like.

New York Thrash! (not trash).......2002-01-25

I gave this collection a 5 star.This is some old stuff but this is the way it was in the early 80's.Some of the recordings are just a little fuzzy but thses bands didn't have a ton of cash to pay for the high cost of recording in those days. Bands like the Bad Brains,Kraut,The Beastie Boys(no rap here!),The False Prophets,which believe it or not is still around,and Much more keep this album alive.Good punk and definitely a collectors item for all you punksters.

Worthy of Jay Leno's collection........1999-01-17

This is a wonderful collection of New York bands that played hardcore punk in the early 1980s. It's akin to the California stuff that was going on - Black Flag and Circle Jerks, for instance - but it's darker.

It seems the world remembers the New York hardcore scene as the totalitarian dictators of rock and roll, all music utterly fulfilling punk's ethos of hard, fast noise. But if you've heard that, you may be surprised to hear how much character these bands have. Its quality isn't terribly consistent (the BeastieBoys' two entries aren't exactly stellar), but the majority really shreds. I like Even Worse a lot, and Kraut is a monster. It's too bad they didn't do much more.

The compilation includes two alternate versions of songs from Bad Brains' self-titled ROIR release. They're not as good. Get their regular album.

How are there no other reviews? This mix is one of the best. It has so many great songs. Father Time by Saukrates, 50 Years by All Natural, Worldwide by Royal Flush, Coolie High by Camp Lo, Dippin by King T. I could go on. Every song is tight. Every!!!! They knew what they were doing when they put this together. It truley is a best of underground hip hop mix. Every song you could repeat. No skipping. The songs all were from 1994-1998, and they all were from an album by all the different artist. I could name them all, but it would be too long. Go get this. I think there weren't a huge amount of copies, so if you love true hip hop, get this now.

so so sorry.......2007-07-23

yo, ced, keith, tr and mo love.........what the hell is this?? some things are just better left in the past. ultra is a hip hop hall of fame group and just disregard this latest thing as.....an incident of human error. i will stick to the other 3 cds. the ones i grew up with when things were right in the world.

Avoid at all costs.......2007-04-03

Not playful, not energetic, nor creative , unlike what they've done before. Looks like something they quickly threw together to make a fast buck. I love this band, however, only when they're at their best...and this is completely the opposite! Ced Gee is horrible on the mic and makes Lil Wayne look like a genius. Buy a Kool Keith solo album instead!

They definitely wasted the opportunity to show the new hiphop fans why they've earned "legend" status.

Could have been better or worse.......2007-03-16

This is a just okay reunion album for the legendary Ultramags. It could have been much better, when you take "Critical Beatdown", "Funk Your Head Up", "Four Horseman" etc in to account. It also could have been much worse. Ced Gee sounds horrible on the mic. Keith sounds good on most tracks, but overall, the magic just isn't there on alot of the tracks. There are about 6 real bangers on here, but for Ultramagnetic, every song should be dope. I think it would have been better if TR and Moe Love had produced more tracks and if Ced had only rapped on a couple of tracks.

Ultra is Back!!.......2007-02-08

The reviewer below obviously didn't listen to the album... Thank God Kool Keith had a huge creative influence on this album, their beats are up with the Neptunes recent album with the click.... Some Futuristic minimal referncing the old school but always being new... This album tops anything i thought they were gonna do...

I'm hapy Moe Love and TR didn't get that many produced tracks on the final cut, it would of been boring, you can still get their produced ultra tracks on other albums and comps... Do your homework kid... As for anyone looking to buy this album, A must of any fan of Kool Keith and real progress of new material in the rap game... I Highly Recoment!!!

Awful return of Ultramagnetic.......2007-01-10

I wrote a review but I guess it was so bad for Ultramagnetic, Amazon booted it. The album is trash. Nothing at all like the 3 studio albums made over a decade ago. But don't take my word for it, sample for yourself.

Ahead of their time? Faith no more. What can I say about this album without my review getting kicked off Amazon again? I've used no profanity or content of explicit nature but this album highly does. 1988's CRITICAL BEATDOWN never, ever gave that kind of deliverance. That's why that's a classic and THE BEST KEPT SECRET is not, by any means (vocally, production, lyrically, concept). Can I get a witness? Please?

DJ MOE LUV is the only producer on the album trying to keep that old Ultramagnetic sound alive here on "Vibrato" and "Mechanism Nice (Born Twice)" the album's 1st single. CED-GEE kills the album verbally and lyrically bragging of 16 bars in almsot every track and being very explicit and obscene (never heard that on CRITICAL BEATDOWN by CED). KOOL KEITH does fine on solo track "Late Nite Rumble" but KOOL KEITH is goin' nowhere with his lyricism and on most of the other songs, HIS delivery is sounding just like CED's towards the end of the album. T.R. LOVE? M.I.A. You see him in photos, you hear silence from him, he doesn't even produce a track. Production by CED, MOE and 2 others and the other 2 sound like KUTMASTA KURT producing (producer for most of KOOL KEITH solo stuff). I do not mean that in a good way. The beats of "Nottz" is bangin', the lyrics by both KEITH and CED should raise eyebrows on what's next to come for THE BEST KEPT SECRET being the B-side to the 1st single "Mechanism Nice (Born Twice)".

Songs like "Ain't It Good 2 U" (2007) and "Party Started" are for gentleman's clubs for the girls to dance to. Now do you see what direction this album is goin'? If you're lookin' for Ultramagnetic to comback with a reunion album with the same spacey super dope production and/or the masterful, brainiac, monkey wrench lyricism as CRITICAL BEATDOWN; FUNK YOUR HEAD UP and THE FOUR HORSEMEN albums gave you over a decade ago, you will not find it here. Maybe in the next 14 years. Right Ultramag?

str8 dope ish.......2007-01-31

maaan.... i used to have a mini disc player in my
car back in tha day.. circa day 98-02 had hella discs... havent been able to listen to them cuz i didnt have a disc player in home untill a week ago.. thank god i still kept them... ran across this and many others that bring back to tha day...wheh hip hop/ rap was tru.. no bull shhiiit... hands down one of tha if not tha classic old school disc... must have in your collection.. what ever happened to production and rhymes like this???

A masterpiece of hot material.......2006-08-03

Every compilation of greatest hits that I've ever heard pale in comparison to this. This album contains some of the absolute best of 94 hip hop. These tracks make me glad I'm from NY. And the DJ didn't cut songs short or f*** them up with unnecessary talkin and scracthin through out the songs. A little bit of scracthin in the very begining but the songs still remain in pure form. This CD is so dope this is my third time buy'in it. Cause my so-called boys who only listen to this new trash swiped it from me. So if you a fan of old school hip hop you wont be disappointed with these tracks.

This CD Bangs. Straight Whiplash! Champion Sound........2002-02-07

I will stand this CD up against any compilation ever assembled. The thing is it almost all underappreciated MC's. You got some SuperStars like Bigge, Nas, Jay-Z and Foxy Brown but everyone is underappreciated. GangStar, Krs-One, Jeru, Black Moon, MOP. This is a who's who of underground rap. Must buy no lie... You will play this CD 20 times the first week... I guarantee it.

NO LIE A MUST BUY!

N.Y.C.'s Finest.......2000-02-19

This album is tight, DJ Skribble works wonders on the decks dropping some of the best hip hop tracks of the 90s. This CD is definately a best buy for any fan of NYC underground style.

The baddest Label, The hall of Premier.......1999-12-06

Half the tracks are Primo's, the whole thing is dope. You probably won't find a better compliation, or the D&D all stars track anywhere else. Pure underground

Great CD.......2003-09-13

I receieved a copy of the single Point seen $ Gone before this album was released in 1995. The background singer is the best singer I have heard in a long time. Lisa has the most sultry voice in the industry. It's infortunate that I am unable to find a Single of only her. This album is only as good as the background singer. Lisa you are the best.....PL..MM..JM..KIT!

If you like backpack music, this is your cd.......2005-08-03

This cd is making me believe again. I've been skeptical of my indie hip-hop heroes lately. Things aint the same as '97. But this cd, a team-up from one of my favorite beatsmiths, Mighty Mi, and colorful emcee Vast Aire is just so fun to listen to.

Best songs? The Workover is gorgeous, and Fighter Pilots is straight gutter

Mediocre Rap Show.......2005-07-02

Mighty Mi comes through with some nice beats, which was good to hear after High & Mighty's "Highlight Zone" disaster. Vast Aire falls flat. His lyrics don't sound thoughtful like on Cold Vein and his delivery isn't that great either. It was like he didn't even try on this album. Mighty Mi held up his end but Vast Aire failed. Could have been a great album. With that said, it is still an alright listen. If you really like either of these guys you will probably enjoy the album.

I agree wholeheartedly.......2005-06-30

Vast Aire and Mighty Mi - The Best Damn Rap Show (Eastern Conference, 2005)

Norfeest is right, although I give this album a 3-star rating. The Best Damn Rap Show should really be called The Best Damn Beats because the production from Mighty Mi (from The High and Mighty) saves the album. As for Vast Aire, he raps okay and the punchlines are aight. He kinda sounds like an underground version of Freeway from Roc-a-fella. The only tight moment I can think of is when Tame One (formerly of Artifacts) comes and blows Vast Aire out the water on "Fighter Pilots". Sorry to anger you underground fans but this is not the best damn rap show, period. -EJR

Huh? (2.5 Stars).......2005-05-23

Do these guys have the same disc that I have? Honestly, 2.5 stars is just me being generous because the beats are dope. Lyrically, this album is more like 1.5 stars. As for X9's review, he seems to think that all things underground are dope, so he tends to exaggerate a little(check for yourself if you don't believe me). There's nothing on this album that will grab your attention because the lyrics are so mediocre. Forget about Cannibal Ox, this isn't a Cannibal Ox album. Holding on to the past glory of Cold Vein is the only way you could look at this album and see anything more than an average release.

There are a few decent joints on the album though. Actually, I can only think of two or three songs -- Fighter Pilots feat. Tame One, Vintage, & Buck 50 Express -- that are somewhat listenable. Vast Aire's rhymes are so elementary that it's almost painful to listen to at times.

The production and Tame One's guest spot are about the only things on this album that are worth hearing. I've never looked at Vast Aire as being all that great. I feel like he's incredibly overrated. His work on this album is no different. The wordplay is virtually nonexistent, his flow is god-awful, and his style is wack (in my opinion). I'd only reccomend this to die hard fans. Now that I've said my piece, bring on the unhelpful votes. I'm still gonna call it like I see it.

Peace

Standout Tracks: Fighter Pilots feat. Tame One, Buck 50 Express, and Vintage

The return.......2005-04-21

Vast Aire has returned and has proved he is one of the sickest MC's out there. Can OX's Cold Vein was a classic, but his follow up, Look Ma No Hands, was pretty weak. He has had a rebirth on this working with Mighty. This won't dissapoint like LMNH. Be sure to check out Vordul Mega for the other half of Can OX. Also a classic.
