A couple of good compilations there Steve. :)

I've not seen them before, when were they released?

Mid nineties. Been several years since I played them, and now I see why. They're ok, but I reckon I could take the tracks I like from each and just about make up one CD. There's a lot of rapping, which while more palatable than the aggressive misogyny the genre is more normally associated with, I find to be a bit distracting.

The project drew plenty of positive reviews, but imo only worth a punt if the price is right.

I prefer this, which I'm putting on next. This can be had from Music Magpie via Ebay for about £2.50. Worth it too imo.

Opening track from above-mentioned album, which I'm sure you will be familiar with:

Nice one Steve. I have it done by Jean Luc Ponty - with no, to my mind, annoying (c)rap lyrics.
