Customer Reviews:

Well, he is "the king of rhythm of blues"! Right?.......2005-03-27

Between the time that he was a member of New Editon and, subsequently became "Mr. Whitney Houston," Brown was a prominent fixture on the pop music scene. This complilation of remixes of hits by the singer shows how prolific he was in his day. With the hits like "Rock Wit'cha," Don't Be Cruel," "My Prerogative," and "Every Little Step," Brown delivered some of the more memorable tunes of the late eighties/early nineties.

And for that reason, the collection fills the bill for fans of contemporary pop/R & B.

It's unfortunate that the singer's apparent self-destructive nature led to a career that was tentative, at best, in need of a major re-ignition.

Late '80's Nostalgia.......2005-02-25

The biggest reason I am writing this review is to make sure people that read this page know that this is a remix album from 1989 featuring singles from Bobby's breakout Don't Be Cruel album (released in '88) and his previous mid-'80's solo album. I don't see that mentioned anywhere. Most of the versions aren't terribly different from the originals, especially in the case of the mega-hits from Don't Be Cruel. All the tracks flow together in a continuous mix, but the edit/track points on the CD are very well placed, so you can skip around and play just one if you want to, and not feel like you're missing the beginning or ending of the song. This collection is very similar to Jody Watley's "You Wanna Dance With Me?" (from the same era) or Madonna's "You Can Dance". For a long time, this was the only Bobby Brown album where you could find "On Our Own" (from Ghostbusters II). That track, as well as "Every Little Step" and "My Prerogative" are only slightly remixed--the biggest change in structure comes from hard-edged stutters placed in the mix. "Rock Witcha" and "Roni" are stripped down a little more and, if memory serves correct, given a little more New Jack flavor. If you were into dance music at the end of the 1980's, this CD will take you back. For most casual Bobby Brown fans who already own Don't Be Cruel, this CD is pretty much unnecessary albeit a very fun listen.

Bobby Brown: The David Ruffin of the 90's.......2001-12-29

Bobby Brown knew how to get the crowds pumping. Hitting the charts in 1983 with New Edition was just the beginning. With hits like Candy Girl, Cool it Now, and his trade mark song Mr. Telephoneman, New Edition was put on the map. In 1985, Brown left the group for solo stardom. His first hit Girlfriend hit number one in 1986. Returning with the numberone albums Don't Be Cruel and Bobby, Brown showed he can still put on a show with out N.E. at his side. .... In 1996 Brown returned to the music scene with N.E. and his replacement, super star Johnny Gill. Brown's attitude and other members missing shows, the N.E. reunion flopped despite their album going double platinum. Brown left the group again and his next album didn't make the charts. ... Hopefully Bobby Brown will get his life straight and he can comeback either as a solo artist or even better; another New Edition album. Because N.E. is best when all six members are on board.

He danced but who knew it...................2001-02-28

While I will say that Bobby in my opinion is one of the most influential singers in R&B, as well as boy band history the album lacked. The true standouts where Roni, Rock withcha and perhaps on our own. I give a vote of content for every little step though too. I applaud Bobby he does have great vocals but who new this album would lack the enthusiam he displayed with Don't be cruel.All and all I gave it three stars. Being twenty-two listening to the album made me wish he was still with N.E. If you're a fan as am I you'll enjoy at least three or four songs. My opinion but it if you like but Don't be cruel is still number one!
