Early Junior is worth hearing

"Having become a Junior Vasquez addict (following him from the Tunnel to Arena to Twilo), I found that I could not rest without having everything by him in print. I was surprised to discover this little gem, full of songs the DJ wrote himself. It is generally agreed that Live Vol. 2 is his best work, and nothing in this collection is likely to change that assessment for anyone. But there are a number of tunes here that make the cd worth the list price -- among them "Just Like a Queen" and "Cum on U Can Git It." A few of these tunes also lean toward ambient, so those looking for the fully blown tracks of his legendary nightclub sets will get only about half of what they want. The vocals are also kept to a bare minimum here."

It's Junior---'Nough said

"No other DJ consistently gets me up and keeps me there. Although he has had his own sets of ups and downs, I am really impressed with the space Junior is at right now. This best of CD is an excellent place to get acquainted with the man behind the wheel."
