WHAT A PIECE OF TRASH!

"Some people will do anything for money. The producers of this compilation apparently belong in that category. The only track with any hit status is track #1 "Shame, Shame, Shame". Do yourself a favor...AVOID this. Instead, go to a used record store, find the 45 RPM 7" single to "Shame, Shame, Shame" and party on! Not only is it the only decent track on this poor excuse for a CD, but it'll save you money and heartache in the process."

Rubbish

"Real scraping-the-bottom-of-the-barrel stuff. Very little of anything vaguely approaching a hit, and shocking sound quality - nearly everything sounds like it was transferred from an eight-track playing in a wind tunnel. Forget it."

I Agree With Everyone Else Here

"Yup this album is pretty bad. I was looking for some rare disco tunes, like on those Disco Gold albums, but instead got a lot of poor quality nonsense on this CD. And what was that John Travolta song doing on the album? It wasn't even uptempo, let alone disco. The only saving grace for this album, which is really why I wanted it and gave it 2 instead of 1 stars, was because of the track 'We're On The Right Track' by Ultra-High Frequency. It's a rare Philly disco dancefloor burner from 1973. The song was redone many times by other Philly groups like South Shore Commission (same backing track, though different vocals) and the Blue Magic (live and on album), so other people in addition to myself must have liked it. :)
If you like 'We're On The Right Track', the quality is great on this album. The other cuts - well, you can find them on other compilations and they probably sound better too."
