MUSIC REVIEW & COLLECTOR NOTES

Kurtis Blow Presents The History Of Rap - Volume 1 is a MUST for those looking to delve into the origins of Disco and Rap music. According to the excellent history and photo packed liner notes: "All selections are original full-length album versions, except where indicated otherwise." You can't go wrong with that track listing.
