"Before you plop down a load of money on this out-of-print disc, be warned. I had a priority records LP from back in the 80s that had many of these songs on it, in their full 12" versions, just like this disc. I was thinking I'd finally have them on CD thanks to Priority releasing them on disc...but I get to The Real Roxanne, and there's a blaring BEEP where she usually uses a swear word...which happens twice in the song! What a disappointment. Is this track every going to show up on CD uncensored? Track times:
1. the show....doug e fresh (6:35)
2. rock box...run dmc (5:28)
3. nightmares...dana dane (5:53)
4. fresh is the word...mantronix (5:32)
5. king tut...word of mouth (4:29)
6. fat boys are back...fat boys (4:28)
7. roof is on fire...rockmaster scott (3:10)
8. leader of the pack...utfo (4:59)
9. real Roxanne...real roxanne (5:08)
10. what people do for money...divine sounds (7:25)"
