Summary: not what it could have been
Comment: Back in the late 90's they promoted this album ALL THE TIME while I was watching WWE wrestling (called WWF back then). It eventually got to the point where I simply HAD to buy the thing to see what the big deal was.
Unfortunately, while it was really appealing to me at first, it really began to lose its charm as the years past, as I began to find out the hit songs weren't the ONLY things these bands should be remembered for. In fact, these songs seriously aren't as good as many of the songs you'd find on any one of the Ratt, Quiet Riot, or Poison albums. Why should we remember *just* the hits? We shouldn't.
Furthermore, artists like Alice Cooper and Judas Priest shouldn't be on here in the first place, because they're mostly early to mid 70's rock artists, and this collection of tracks should mainly focus on the 80's, and NO other decade because the two decades are entirely different from each other. It doesn't matter to me if these songs are not from the 70's- Alice Cooper and Judas Priest are artists from the 70's, and that's the point.
I think they could have found a better selection of songs to stick on here. "Round and Round" is NOT the best Ratt song, and "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" is not the best Poison song either. Not only are these NOT the best songs, but they also don't quality as the heaviest songs from either band either. The same applies to Great White and Whitesnake (though no one can deny "Here I Go Again" is a fantastic song- even people who normally hate heavy metal agree it's a great song).
"Hold on Loosely" is a pretty bad song though. .38 Special is MUCH better than that. "We're Not Gonna Take It" kind of stinks as well. I have a greatest hits disc from Twisted Sister that has a lot of better songs, such as "I Am, I'm Me" and "I Wanna Rock".
Luckily it DOES have some great songs such as "Cult of Personality", "Nobody's Fool", and "Sister Christian". It's just not a flawless collection. It's just an attempt to remember the 80's and act like the hits are the only songs worth remembering because of all the singles released in the decade. There's plenty of album bands from the 80's. Don't forget that.

Summary: One of best collections of 80s rock
Comment: What a collection of songs on here. Check out "Poison" by Alice Cooper and "You've Got Another Thing Comin'" by Judas Priest. More good ones are "Round and Round" by Ratt, "Cum on Feel the Noize" by Quiet Riot, "The Final Countdown" by Europe, and "Nobody's Fool" by Cinderella. This is a great collection of some really big rock hits.

Summary: A Hell Of Alot Better Then The So Called 80's CD's U Get For A Nickle
Comment: I love this music and cd, yes there are some head scratchers that shouldn't be here like the Cutting Crew, Asia or .38 Special, but than again it was they in the beginning who helped shape the 80's future in the late 70's, so the deserve to be here as well. There are alot of good times on this cd collection that you can't help but think back to a simplier time, and still stands the test of time and still helps the party get rolling today. All the way from .38 Special's 1981 Hold on Loosly, Cheap Tricks 1978 Surrender, Rainbow's 1985 Stone Cold, Warrent's 1990 Cherry Pie down to Firehouse's 1995 Love Of A Lifetime.
Great F**king cd all the way around, may be there can be a follow up with artist say Ozzy, Riot, Hurricane, Kix, Junkyard, and Dangerous Toys to name a few. ROCK ON!!!!
