the main reason i wanted this was "You Are My Friend"---for that alone it gets 5 stars.
Sylvester is the original Disco Queen, his greatest hits is a send up of everything disco. Not to be limited he also does Living For The City with a delightful gospel flare at the end, and Ohh Baby, Baby. This is one of the best cd's I own I play it all the time. Sylvester was taken from us too soon.
Rau Paul and the Village People took notes but Miss Sylvester was the one the only the Greatest. Hearing Sylvester is the next best thing to a time machine.I love every song on this CD.
This dude could make your heart pulse and throb without even trying. We lived in tiny town's back in the 70's.
This guy was the first lady of gay disco. Hearing this CD brings it all back like it was just yesterday.
All the songs on this CD were blaring from every open window in the gayest parts of towne in the 70's. It was a real party time with the strong beat and wild party lyrics we freaked from night till dawn and beyond to the sweet sounds of Miss Sylvester.
This CD is a trip down the gay disco in its most fabulous and firey best. She rules rocks and rolls.
good presentation of earlier work. 2 problems; variable sound quality on a few songs and bad edit on Sell My Soul (that was one of my favorite songs by him).It would have been nice to have the 12" version of that.
.this album does contain most of Sylvester's "popular" dance classics, such as "Mighty Real" and "Disco Heat". The only "club" classic that is missing is "Over and Over". But what makes this album indispensible are the "club" classiscs "Down,Down,Down" and "I Need You". I've never seen "Down,Down,Down" on any other compilation, and this is as powerful a track as you will ever hear, and may be my favorite Sylvester song. I love the popular music, but it isn't hard to find. For the true afficianados, they're searching for the tunes that rocked but are hard to find.
