If you are buying this CD for both groups and you know the difference between the originals and re-records, you will be sorely disappointed. If, like me, you want those two Silver Convention songs, then go for it, although the price point may be a little steep for these two great songs, which are full length by the way and not edited down to single length. "Fly" clocks in at 7:44 and "Boogie" at 7:51.


NONE of them are originals   June 16, 2005

Just got this based on earlier commentators here claiming the Silver Convention songs were the originals. I should have known better.

I happen to know Fly Robin Fly very well. The two Silver Convention hit songs (Fly Robin Fly and Get Up and Boogie) are close enough to legit so that a dj could play them at a disco bash and not catch any flak, but the fact is that the vocalists are not the original singers, the voices and the vocalisms are subtly different . Anyone can tell by getting the originals and comparing. The difference is gross and instantly noticeable with the KC tracks, Silver Convention tracks are also bootlegged, just better.

This is a fraud. Avoid it!

These songs are the best of the 70's DISCO era that will never be back again from K C & THE SUNSHINE BAND and SELVER CONVENTION.


Low Budget CD!   March 26, 2005

I agree with the previous reviewer: the KC songs are NOT the originals, but Silver Convention songs are the familiar versions. The only thing I want to add is if you want this album, don't pay more than a normal "low budget CD" price. If you are a huge KC & The Sunshine Band fan and are actually looking for "potential demos" or something different of their familiar hits, then get this (I'm thinking that maybe these songs WERE demos at one time). It contains no liner notes, no pictures, nor lyrics.
