4 out of 5 stars This group brought me back to rap! Back in the day........2004-10-09

My album is titled U.T.F.O. HITS,same sequence. U.T.F.O saved me with hip-hop in the early 80's. See,I was into rap but was drifting away because rappers like Melle Mel and Run-DMC wasn't movin' me anymore then Brooklyn's U.T.F.O. came out with "Roxanne,Roxanne". The wordplay was confusing in the beginning,I wouldn't give 'em a chance,then a high school classmate told me to try again,so I bought the "Hangin' Out"/"Roxanne,Roxanne" 12" single and throughout the years,I wore out that 12".

This is a great collection of hits here,span by 4 albums (the 5th album BAG IT AND BONE IT songs are not listed here). 20 selections separated by quotes by famous rappers/DJ's in U.T.F.O.'s favor and great mama's boy tunes. "Ya Cold Wanna Be With Me",the 12" version of "Spilt Personality","Leader Of The Pack",Bite It","The Ride",the infamous scratching record ever "Pick Up The Pace" is here (listen to the end and you'll know what I mean),of course "Roxanne 2x","Fairytale Lover" and "Wanna Rock" are all the worthy. MIXMASTER ICE's solo rap My Cut's Correct" could have replaced "Bits And Pieces" and "Battle Of The Sexes" would have been more sexual than "Masterbaby","We Work Hard" or "Kangol And Doc" would have been the good last song of the disc instead of a tired unreleased "Lollipop" duet with THE REAL ROXANNE (that duet should have been happened).

Overall,it's great to hear these tunes all on one disc. Missing a chosen few,it's still good to hear the old school. Again.

Although this album contains classic joints, what happened to their first release, "Beats and Rhymes"? There will never be a rap group to construct a phenomenom such as U.T.F.O. did. Roxanne Roxanne spawn over 15 different "answer records"! Unbelievable. Well, That's how hip-hop was back in the day. In it's purest form. Not for the money. For the skills.

Any old school fan of hip-hop will appreciate the collection of classics on this album. The memories those songs bought back are unreal.
