Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars Great Buy.......2007-04-26

I agree with Mr. Pac Dan about some of the songs not being 12 inches, but still is a great buy, especially as a constant enjoyment reminder of the real essence of music and just havin' a phenomenally great/quality time whenever you heard these songs.

4 out of 5 stars Old School Jams, Vol. 3.......2006-12-21

It has taken me years to finally find a disk with the "Original" version of "The Show" with Doug E. Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew. For those in the know, the part where Slick Rick says "Me-Shell, Ma-Bell...." was strangely edited out in every other version of the song that I've ever come across on Compact Disc. A special "Thank You" to whomever found the "Original" 12-inch version!

The rest of the disk isn't bad, either. But, for me, it's strictly "The Show!" Four stars!!

2 out of 5 stars If You're Not Concerned With Quality.........................2006-09-13

Then you will enjoy this CD otherwise it's a waste of money, mostly Vinyl records transferred to CD and poorly done at that. You can clearly hear vinyl noise and pops/crackles. There should be a law that CD's transfered from vinyl records should state so on the package. I wasted my money.
"D-"

5 out of 5 stars The Word Is Out.......2006-07-17

I bought this CD for one song - "The Word Is Out" by Jermaine Stewart. I can't even tell you what is on the rest of the CD. I received it in a hurry, though, and I appreciate that. Thanks much, Angelia

4 out of 5 stars back to the old school.......2005-09-23

this is a nice collection of old school songs theres not one song I cant listen to.
I would recommened it for everybody who used to go clubbing back in the 80s..

4 out of 5 stars Old School Review.......2007-01-17

This CD and the music chosen for it has brought back many memories of those fun times. The beat, rhythm and vocals are great. I just feel like dancing every time I play this CD.

1 out of 5 stars You have got to be kidding.......2006-09-23

I get so tired of seeing the same songs put on Old school CD's. All they know is Maze "Before I let go" and the Isley Brother's "Between the Sheet", these artist have other hit songs that are worthy of Old School type CD's. If I see "More Bounce to the Ounce" on another CD, I am going to scream.

5 out of 5 stars classic jams.......2006-08-22

This is a great CD. Highly recommend it to those who danced in the 80's.

5 out of 5 stars Old School Jam - JAMS!.......2006-01-15

Great collection...brings back great memories. Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars WHAT!!!.......2005-12-03

This was FAN TAS TIC, it brings back memories of house parties, jamming til the early morn'. My friends and family all want to borrow the CD's, I suggested they buy their own because it is an investment they won't regret. Loving and listening to it 24/7.

    Customer Reviews:

    4 out of 5 stars Going back to school.......2007-04-16

    This is a great collection of songs from the seventies and eighties. It consists mainly of full-length LP or 12-inch versions of funk, disco and R&B tunes. They generally are in the five to seven minute range. It's certainly a welcome alternative to the edited single versions that are recycled on countless compilations time and again. Eventually, some of these tunes would be sampled in later years by other artists. There are three single versions on this album: "Think (About It)" by Lyn Collins,"Pass The Peas" by The JB's and "September" by EWF. This collection is great for parties or get togethers. If you like extended versions then you'll enjoy this album.

    The first disc runs 78 minutes and the second 72 minutes.

    5 out of 5 stars That was FAST! AGAIN!.......2007-06-13

    WOW! How fast was that. I order this and it arrived in 2 days....AWESOME!

    5 out of 5 stars Street Jams: Electric Funk, Vol. 1.......2005-10-28

    I grew up on this stuff even though I'm only 16. All the songs blended hip-hip with techno. All the beats seem unique and exotic. They are all something that you don't hear in today's rap/hip-hop unless they use the beat. Missy Elliott got her "Lose Control" beat from the song "Clear" off this cd. This cd includes the mega hit "Planet Rock" by Afrika Bambaataa & the Soulsonic Force. Every song here is great and major part of rap/hip-hop history and culture but here are my top 5:

    1.Planet Rock
    2.Skanless Electric Funk Mega-Mix
    3.Electric Kingdom
    4.Clear
    5.Jam on Revenge (The Wikki-Wikki Song)

    5 out of 5 stars As Good As Music Gets!.......2005-09-13

    Many of the sounds on this CD are about as good as rap/hip hop/electronic funk gets. Planet Rock is close to musical perfection in my opinion. How I wish the hip hop scene of today would return to its musical roots.

    5 out of 5 stars Essential for fans.......2004-10-15

    I can't praise this 4 cd set enough.

    Sound quality is excellent, decent liner notes - fantastic track selection.

    Part 1 includes "Planet Rock" (Afrika Bambaataa), "Play At Your Own Risk" (Planet Patrol) and "Rockit" (Herbie Hancock).

    Parts 2, 3 and 4 include "Siberian Nights" (Twilight 22), "Egypt, Egypt" (The Egyptian Lover) "White Horse" (Laid Back), "Don't Stop The Rock" (Freestyle) So many classics and the "Skanless Electric Funk Megamixes" are brilliant!

    Anyone with even a passing interest in this type of music would be advised to purchase this.

    5 out of 5 stars Awesome collection.......2001-06-10

    This CD is awesome! I just got it a few days ago and cannot stop playing it. There are so many early freestyle and hip-hop hits on here. Of course, you could not have an electric funk compilation without the classic Planet Rock by Afrika Bambaataa, which was one of the earliest (And best) hip-hop songs. Play At Your Own Risk by Planet Patrol is very catchy and easily danceable. The two megamixes are unbelievably good, and I think they should have made a CD with one long megamix. Another classic on here is Herbie Hancock's Rockit, which is infectious and awesome to dance too. If you like good, danceable, catchy music, and you are interested in listening to some early dance music, pick up this awesome CD. You will not be disapointed.

    I was so surprised how quick I got this order....Good JOB!

    5 out of 5 stars oldschool must have.......2006-02-11

    If you came up in the mid 80's, I mean like in high school or something like that then you will know what I am talking about. This album and the series bring back so many memories. It was when rap was "happy" and the beats are what you paid attention to and you could actually rap the whole song with the MC. These tracks are oldschool and most younger people won't get the lyric's or beats. If you are over thirty then you have to get these and if you are younger you might learn some history.

    4 out of 5 stars Fantastic Beginnings of Hip Hop.......2005-10-21

    A previous poster mad a really cruel review about this compilation series, and I've figured him all out. This individual is basically going on Amazon, and sampling soundbytes of certain albums, and just criticizing them just because he can. If you don't believe me, just check this person's listing of reviews. Every review is a "1 Star" Review, from Nine Inch Nails to The Killers. Please disregard his review, and listen to someone who actually "buys" and "listens" to music, and who was actually there during the beginnings of hip-hop. Many of these songs are still played at house parties, on mixshows, tv shows, and movies. The cool thing is that many jams of this era's hip hop was very lighthearted, fun, non-violent, and even downright silly, BUT they got the butts on the dancefloor, and that's what has been missing in hip hop and rap. This whole series I would recommend to anyone who is interested in historical origins of genres and sub-genres, or just want to relive a more innocent time. But like those kids on Reading Rainbow would say, "Don't Take MY Word For It"

    1 out of 5 stars More cheesy disco rap.......2005-08-21

    Ice-T is the only good rapper on here, The rest is lameo stupid disco schlock. This is posuer rap. im talking total losers. Stupid kiddie beats make this sound like an episode of Mr Rogers

    I have used this CD for many dance parties and this music gets them up and dancing everytime.

    Great jams, music to move it by and high energy. A must have for any frat party or just friends getting together to get funky.
