4.0 out of 5 stars Good Solid Set, July 29 2002
This review is from: V3 Old School Jams (Audio CD)
I think this is a Cool overall set&covers alot of 80's Jams!! but I don't think that every Act here should have a Long Version.but the Jams that stood out truly only get stronger here.you will enjoy the Bumps&Grooves here.

3.0 out of 5 stars If you were in high school during the 80's...., July 5 2002

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: V3 Old School Jams (Audio CD)
My younger brother bought this one. I took a listen and while many of the tracks I relish from the 80's, a good number of the remaining ones suffered from the "extended" versions featured on this compilation.

The longer/remixed versions of Blondie's "Rapture", Rick James's "Super Freak", "You Dropped a Bomb on Me" (The Gap Band) and "Rock Steady" by The Whispers are welcome jams that are timeless.

However, cuts like "Last Night a DJ Saved My Life" (Indee), "Ain't Nothing Going on But the Rent" (Gwen Guthrie), "The Show" by Doug E. Fresh and a few others had their "moment in the sun" in that decade and were more appreciated by my sibling's 30-something-year-old ears than my slightly more "mature and refined" late 40's-year-old ones.

What a difference a decade and a half makes! Sheesh!

2.0 out of 5 stars If You're Not Concerned With Quality.................., Sep 13 2006

This review is from: V3 Old School Jams (Audio CD)
Then you will enjoy this CD otherwise it's a waste of money, mostly Vinyl records transferred to CD and poorly done at that. You can clearly hear vinyl noise and pops/crackles. There should be a law that CD's transfered from vinyl records should state so on the package. I wasted my money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Old School Jams, Vol. 3, Dec 20 2006
By D. S. HARDEN "a movie fan" - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: V3 Old School Jams (Audio CD)
It has taken me years to finally find a disk with the "Original" version of "The Show" with Doug E. Fresh and the Get Fresh Crew. For those in the know, the part where Slick Rick says "Me-Shell, Ma-Bell...." was strangely edited out in every other version of the song that I've ever come across on Compact Disc. A special "Thank You" to whomever found the "Original" 12-inch version!

The rest of the disk isn't bad, either. But, for me, it's strictly "The Show!" Four stars!!
