Disappointing
Review date: 2008-05-30 Rating: 6 out of 10
There were so many songs that I had never heard before. I thought I was going to know them all so it was very disappointing. I wonder how many were actually "hits"?

I am very glad that I have this CD in my collection.Unbelievable bargain - the best 80s compilation I know of Review date: 2008-03-28 Rating: 10 out of 10This collection is unbelievable value for the money. There's 5 CDS packed with great songs that you'll recall from 20 years ago. They were all big back then and even if you don't like them (I really hate some of them lol)you still have the nostalgia factor to go for.
For the price asked is THE bargain, you won't risk a bit with this one. I would say "essential for any CD collection, of any size".
