Re-issue of the 11-track album TBCD1457 adding - contrary to the compilation's title - the remix of Planet Rock written for the movie 'Swordfish' in 2001.
The inlay lists twelve tracks but the CD has an extra 13th track - 43 secs of "we are the world of rap" chant.
Track 2 artist given exactly as "Bambaataa Zulu Nation Soul Sonic Force".
This collection is like one big late 70s early 80s New York house party, Roxy session, Mudd Club or Ritz gig with Jazzy J on the decks & Afrika "Master of Records" Bambaataa bobbing around next to him, It is a better indication of what was going on in that scene than listening to any Sugarhill Gang album or Kurtis Blow for that matter.
They took the stage like Parliament for the next generation incorporating funk, go-go, party hip hop routines & electro and completely funked it up and sent it towards the stars.
The fact is the Zulu Nation (which began around 73) & Bam are all still going strong, much respect due.
