Essential Funk

"The Best Of Kool & The Gang-The Millennium Collection" contains all their best radio songs-with no filler. The majority of these songs were released during my high school years, and, man, were these songs HUGE!!! In this sampler of some of K&TG's greatest hits, you get one of the greatest party songs of all time, "Celebration", which will have you dancing for hours! You also get "Too Hot", "Joanna", "Cherish" and "Fresh"-all a staple of early-to-mid '80's radio playlists. "Hollywood Swinging", one of Kool's early hits, was the main reason I purchased this priceless gem of Mercury/MCA's 20th Century Masters Series. So, if you're into funk, or if you don't want to spend more on a pricier Kool & The Gang Greatest Hits Collection, this is the CD for you! Buy it before the record company(ies) decides to take this 20th Century Masters Series out of print.

I love Kool & The Gang!!!

This CD really contains the best of Kool and the Gang,it may be too brief for some,but if you want the great hits and not just a lot of extra songs to fill up a CD,then get this!I love it!Kool and the Gang was one of the greatest Funk/Soul groups of the 70's and these songs fully represent their greatness.

not the greatest greatest hits

This compilation is just fine if you want to add "Jungle Boogie" to your collection once someone has stolen your Pulp Fiction soundtrack, but a much more complete compilation has recently been released. It's worth a few extra dollars to pick up The Very Best of Kool and the Gang.
