Anyone got any of the 'Street Sounds' albums?

Back in the mid-80s there was a whole series of albums with all the breakdancing/hip-hop tracks on. You know, stuff like 'Jam On It', Kraftwerk's 'Tour De France', Dougie Fresh & The Get Fresh Crew's 'Six Minutes' and a whole load of other stuff.

I'd love to get hold of copies of all of these again. Anyone got them? Are they available on CD?

There was a thread a couple of weeks ago about this, and myself and a few others ended up buying a CD from a guy on ebay. It contained about 15 old Streetsounds and Electro albums on it. I've only listened to a few, but they're excellent (and virtually unobtainable anywhere!).

MarkO

Ooooh. Must have missed that thread.

YHM.

Oh, and before somebody jumps on his high horse and starts harping about piracy, nobody can tell me that the guy on eBay is selling these albums legally with licences....


No high horse, the guy on eBay is eBay's lookout - you are SN's

Cheers Gary. I remember it from 'back in the day' but I've not heard it for years. It must be more obscure than I thought.

cheers,

MarkO

Oh yes. Major hip-hop fan back in those days, used to even try my hand at breakdancing. Also, I used to skate a lot, and most of those tracks used to be played regularly at the place I used to skate.

"JamOnIt, JamOnIt, I said a jam, ja-ja-ja-ja-JamOooon-it".

That c.d has Fresh 86 on it. I went to that, Will Smith was there with about 20 other old school artists. Also went to Freestyle 85 which was a real underground gig. Met the Chrome Angels from France amongst others, real heroes of mine at the time because I was heavily into the Graffiti thang

How do I get hold of that c.d then?

GaryK
