Amazon reviewer Beth Bessmer needs a memory refresher. "Here We Go (Let's Rock and Roll)" was also a single off the disc and also a big chart hit. Perhaps she meant to say she felt the other 2 are the only "necessary" ones here?

HIGHLIGHTS:
Sure, some of the lines in Freedom Williams' rap are corny ("It's your world and I'm just a squirrel/tryin' ta get a nut to move your butt") but that's part of the charm of the title track. It still holds up well as a floor-filling dance tune that's a pop song first. Martha Wash's scatted vocal at the coda just seals the deal. "Things that make you go Hmmm" was more or less an attempt to piggyback on the popularity of Arsenio Hall at the time. The lyrics about infidelity recall the style of DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince. It's worthing listening to the bonus track (seemingly just a string of TV/movie clips strung over a house-ish track) to try and figure out the sources.

LOWS:
The interminable "Groove of Love (What's This Word Called Love?)"...wake me when it's over. Hedonism anthem "Live Happy" shares this 'wisdom' ("Some people say how can you live this way?/Living only for today/Tomorrow may never come our way/So I'm gonna try to live happy!").

BOTTOM LINE:
The only absolutely critical song here is "Gonna Make You Sweat". It's available on several compilations: Try ASIN B0000C0XP3 if you want a good R&B based comp of that era, ASIN B00004Y6WD for a decent 90s dance disc, or ASIN B00005B53Y if you want a mix of 90s hits cross genre...everything from Amy Grant to Mr. Big. These are just some of a HUGE number of hits for the song so if you don't like any of those 3 discs, odds are you can find one you love (or at least like enough to get it used). Get it on a compilation.

If you listened to these songs today, they would still me timeless! Great dance songs. They sure knew how to mix songs well. not one song is a disappointment. Nearly 15 years alter, I still find myself listening to this CD!

BUY IT! You won't regret it!

This group is so 1-hit wonder material. I can't believe that I used to like this album. This will make you puke.

This music is still good! It is more in the style of Dance-Pop with R&B flavour of the time. Most of the songs feature the vocal stylings of Martha Wash. It holds up well compared to the atrocious Trance music. Overall if you like any Euro-Dance or Dance-Pop artist or group from the 80's or 90's, you'll like this.

The muscle-bound front man for C & C Music Factory may be the one that most associate with the early 90's group, but the real wizards behind the ensemble were Robert Clivilles and the late David Cole. Taking up where 70's disco and 80's dance left off, the duo billed their music as a melding of rock, soul, funk, pop, and techno.

At a little over an hour in length, the album features their number one hits on respective Billboard lists (the title cut, "Here We Go", Things that Make You Go Hmmmm..." and "Just a Touch of Love"). Another highlight is "Live Happy", a song obviously influenced by "the Philly Sound" from the seventies.

Clivilles and Cole were responsible for the music and the arrangements with rap by Williams and vocals from Zelma Davis and an uncredited Martha Wash.

When 50 Cent was still in high school, honing his "craft", C & C Music Factory was showing what it really was like "in da club".
