Rating: - Great Collection
This is a great compilation of songs. I used to have all of the Annuals by MoS and recently put them all on Ebay as there were a lot of duff tracks in there. My personal view is buy this and MoS Anthems 2 and you will have a strong collection of great dance tunes - perfect for the car.
Rating: - ok but not as good as thought
Thought would be great but disappointed, haven't got through full album before turning off before finished. Some classic sounds.
Rating: - Fun
Not being a big dance fan, this was the first such compilation I've bought and I like it.

Rating: - Adequate for someone who likes chart dance music
It bemuses me why negative comments towards most dance compilations always say 'same stuff repackaged' - dont buy it then!! The song lists are provided beforehand to give you an idea of what songs and genres are included. This compilation, though not the best for someone who prefers less commercial music is good to put on in the background or in the car. It serves its purpose well.
