Customer Reviews

Good collection, but missing his best work
I have all of Patrick Cowley's records on vinyl. What this collection is missing is the real version of "Menergy". This album has a somewhat tired version featuring Sylvester on lead,not the original Patrick Cowley Singers. (I love most of Sylvester's work)Also,this CD does not contain the original versions of "Thank God for Music" or "Come on I wanna to take you home". They were re-done on this album for some reason and are not quite as good as the originals. While I admire Cowley's work, I would not say he was an innovative musical genius. Most of his music is a direct riff of Giorgio Moroder's "From Here to Eternity" (1977) and "E=MC2" (1979). However, it still does capture a certain period in club music of the early eighties and I still would recommend it.BTW, it does have 2 orginal Paul Parker songs "Right on Target" and Pushin' too hard".

Terrific Collection !
A must for synth and Hi-NRG dance music lovers/likers. Patrick was ahead of his time. His painstaking overlayering and track mixing paid off every time -- with delicious material. Try and obtain a copy of the (out-of-print) book "Tribal Rites" written by fellow Megatone Records musician David Diebold. Fascinating stuff.

Visit are great space in time...
Patrick Cowley's music came on the dance scene shortly after the death of disco and breathed new life onto the dance floor. I have this album on vinyl and it is "beat mixed" from one song to the next...fantastic!! The only song missing is his remix of Donna Summer's song "I Feel Love". Otherwise this is a gem.
