Additional ESPN Presents: Jock Jams, Volume 1 Information
|
A collection of well-known pop tunes, this record documents those ubiquitous tracks that have been played into the ground at nearly every sports facility in the country. Most, like "Whoomp! There It Is" and "Hip Hop Hooray," are undeniably catchy, and other tracks were downright splendid when they first appeared on the scene. Some even credit "Pump Up the Volume" with being a breakthrough for the electronic music scene of the late '80s and early '90s. Still, bringing musical innovation to light is not what the makers of this recording had in mind. It's all about the trashy glitz, fleeting glories, and mindless greed of late-20-century American sports. Revel in its dubious charms, and risk having your brains turn to mush while a permanent grin takes over your face. --Matthew Cooke

All the people said the party was great and all said the music set the tone. It had the people pumped. Thanks. I purchased the CD Jock Jams CD for a March Madness Party that I held for over 100 people and it truly was the hit or hits of the evening. Especially the first two tracks Let's Get Ready to Rumble.
The CD has since become a favorite when making long, dreary drives.it certainly "pumps me up." I purchased this compilation in order to grab and audio clip for a sales meeting: "It's SHOWTIME, baby." and found the other selections equally energising.
The lyrics are clean too so no complaints. This is a great CD whether you're old school or not. I use this when announcing basketball games and there is no better way to get everyone moving.
It's upbeat, loads of fun, yes, great for cleaning the house to. I first heard this mix only very recently, in a long cab ride, and begged begged the driver to let me buy the disc from him. I had been feeling nostalgic for those days lately and this disc captures my youth perfectly. But really, it brings me back to the days of middle school, going to school dances and buying cassette singles with my friends on the weekends.just being care-free and being a kid. He refused, but let my friend run into his apartment and upload it into his iTunes. I have since bought the disc, and love it soooo much.
I wouldn't buy this CD for general listening music but for fitness it's definitely my favorite. It really helped get my classes motivated. I'm a PE teacher and my students LOVED doing circuit training to this CD. Every song is super upbeat.
