"This is a fantastic album if you are a fan of house music and hip enough to know it's roots. I first heard this album when I was in highschool and was totally captivated by it. The beats and grooves are top notch, the vocals very sexy. I am glad to see it re-issued as it was impossibly rare for awhile(out of print for almost a decade). Tracks like; "Big Fun", "Do you love what you feel", and the title "Good Life" are dancefloor classics. This was probably the first ( and perhaps last ) real house music to ever hit the charts in america, "Good Life" and "Big Fun" got major play on the radio back then. This pre-dates Derrick Carter and much of the Chicago Scene. Inner City were contemporaries of Ten City ( also recommended if you like this sort of thing ). Unfortunately, Inner City fizzled almost as fast as they bubbled up. Shame, really, because they had a lot of potential."

Warning!!!

"Be forewarned, this disk is copy-protected. Wouldn't work in my computer or DVD player, it would work in a walkman. I listen to almost all my music on my computer. So I ended up ripping it just to listen to it on the computer. Great copy-protection! Just a big pain and upseting to individuals who pay for the product to listen to. The rating is based on the IQ of the idiots that manufactured this piece of crap."
