Editorial Review:
This three-girl unit was conceived by the Latin Rascals (producers and, later, recording artists in their own right) as a Latina update of the Supremes. The biggest hits on this compilation prove that they are worthy of such great company, though MTV's resistance to freestyle prevented anyone here from becoming a star on the order of Diana Ross. "Show Me" is their most enduring single--with it's yearning lyrics and hyper beats, it's nearly a textbook example of freestyle in its heyday. The Girls break the frenetic mood with a token ballad, a cover of Rose Royce's "Wishing on a Star." --John Sanchez

Rating:  - My Heart Skips A Beat Back To The 80's!
Great CD with lots of favorites. These songs take me back to my high school days. I have some of these songs in extended form on old tapes and their getting worn out. I do agree with one recent review that the song "Wishing On A Star" should have been the original. They could have added that remix as a bonus track.
My favorite tracks are: "Show Me", "Because Of You", "Promise Me", "We Can't Go Wrong", "Inside Outside", & "My Heart Skips A Beat".
If your into 80's/dance music, you ... Read More
Rating:  - Great dance music
They had really great dance music in the 1980s. Some really great songs I like you should sample are "Show Me", "Because of You", "Inside Outside", and "My Heart Skips a Beat". This is worth owning if you love 80s dance.

I grew up listening to the Cover Girls in the 80's. It was my dance music when I was a teenager. They were the "Destiny's Child" of the 80's, only The Cover Girls were the orignators, Beyonce should kiss the ground they walk on. The greatest hits has all the good songs on it, but for some reason, they left off one of The Cover girls best songs "Spring Love". This is a good dance music collection, it's not "freestyle" like some reviewers keep refering too. The new generation thinks they can coin ... Read More
Rating: - Freestyle Queens
First off, i was very proud to learn that The Cover Girls were Latina. Back in the 80's it wasn't too widely known when a performer was Latino. It was thought to be a better way of "marketing"...ok so this CD is Full of the Rhythum of freestyle..."Latino Old School"...this is our music!!!These girls are not only sexy but they're have shown to be very talented with ability to go from the dancefloor to the heart. They can serve up heaters for the freestyle dancefloor like "because of you", "inside, outside", ... Read More
Rating: - The Second Greatest Group Of Free-style!
In the late 80's, free-style ruled the dancefloors especially in places like Miami and New York and "The Cover Girls" were one of the movements biggest stars. Even though MTV did not embrace them, nor give them exposure, they managed five top 40 hits between 87-92 and several other minor hits and club favorites.
The songs that truly capture the free-style movement are "Show Me", "Inside Outside", and "Because of You" which are three of their most enduring songs. However, it was their two big ballads ... Read More
