Synopsis

Album Description
Unavailable in the U.S.! Three CD set that compiles some of the original titles from the popular '80s Hooked On Classics series. While Classical purists may have snubbed their noses at the thought of their beloved classics played over a danceable beat, the Hooked On Classics series introduced Classical works to a whole new generation who may have otherwise ignored it. The Hooked On Classics series remains as popular and as in-demand as ever some 25+ years later. K-Tel.

"My daughter gave me Hooked ClassicsI years ago. I loved it then and purchased the rest of the series on cassettes. This year I decided to join the 21st Century- get an Ipod and start seriously walking. The very first CD I wanted to put onto the Ipod was Hooked on Classics. How delighted I was to find that the whole series was available,from Amazon, in one boxed set. The sound quality is GREAT and this is a fun way to "hook" new listeners to the "real" classics-plus I am really stepping out to these tunes."
