    For those wondering why mostly instrumental mixes were included--Well, the reason might be that most Italo vocals are very bad. They usually ruin the otherwise good production & arrangements.

      An excellent, tasty retrospective selection of the topnotch Italo-Disco diamonds from early 80s! Rare B-side instrumental versions mainly, purified from the annoying cheesy pops vocals - an exciting journey into the depths of skillfully produced synthetic structures of classic Disco sound! Highly recommended for those who сечёт фишку! ;)

        Too bad they decided to include mostly instrumental versions to fit the contemporary dancefloors...
        It's great anyway, but with the original versions it would have been just perfect.
