Review

With this hugely entertaining Classic Edition collection, Grandmaster Flash (a founding father of hip-hop and turntablism) has fashioned an indispensable release. Evoking big cars, bad suits, disco balls, and intensive hedonism, Flash fuses dancefloor stormers with wistful bits of yesteryear. The mix twists and turns, from Positive Force's "We Got the Funk" to James Brown's "Give It Up or Turn It Loose," before Flash drops "You're the One for Me" by D-Train. Every cut induces severe booty shake or warm and fuzzy nostalgia--or both, best illustrated when Blondie's "Rapture" segues into the marvelous "Last Night a DJ Saved My Life" by InDeep. Every half-serious music lover should own some Grandmaster Flash, for no collection is complete without him. --Steffan ChiraziFeatures 17 essential grooves spanning the climactic dance moments of the 70s and 80s. The Essential Edition is hand-picked and crafted into one continuous mix by the pioneer of dance and hip-hop. Featuring the pivotal dance hits 'I Can't Wait' by Nu-Shooz, 'Rapture' by Blondie, 'Last Night A DJ Saved My Life' by Indeep and many more! 2002.
