Free Music Notes for The Best of the Jets: 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection

Free Music Review: Great late 80's pop in the perfect format
Hit: 5 Stars

But for the late 80's band, The Jets, this format fits like a glove.

The Jets were a family band, eight brothers and sisters of the Wolfgramm family. (In fact two other brothers not in this band formed the duo Boys Club.) They got their name from the fictional band in Elton John's "Bennie & the Jets".

Between 1986 & 1989, the band had 10 charted hits, all represented here. (If there's another CD in this series that has both the complete hits of the artist and minimal filler, I can't find it.)

Five of the Jets songs went top ten nationally. They're the hits you recognize: the up-tempo dance numbers "Crush On You" and "Cross my Broken Heart", the better than average ballads "You Got It All" and "Make It Real", and the "lite-Prince" funk of "Rocket 2 U".

The Jets are not one of the bands you think of as a big 80's pop band, but you'll find yourself singing along to hit after hit. Nothing too deep or groundbreaking, but good pop well done, and that's reward enough.

"Baaaaby, I can rocket 2 U
Hoooney, the only thing I can do."
