| | Mint Condition Collection (1991-1998) CD Mint Condition Discography of CDs
(5 Customer Reviews)
The Collection (1991-1998) contains all the highlights from the Mint Condition's first three albums, plus their contribution to the Jason's Lyric soundtrack, "If Trouble Were Money," and two new recordings. Since Mint Condition's albums were a little uneven, a collection of this sort is welcome, even if it arrives a little early; it offers an ideal retrospective of the group's first albums. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Muzik (9/98, p.88) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...a force to be reckoned with....a tough hybrid of funk, soul, rap and jazz all put together with love and devotion....one of the most innovative bands ever." Collection (1991-1998) Music Mint Condition Collection (1991-1998) Songs Collection (1991-1998) Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)   Always Stunning Mint Condition is one of the most talented group of men then and now. Every song is a joy to hear. I have everthing this fine group of men have done and each album is more wonderful than the one before. But other than Life's Aquarium, this is the one that stays on in my house and in the car everyday. Stokley Williams' vocals are as clear and pure as they are wicked. I love this man. In person, he is the same and so is his voice. Perfect. The talent of this band is imense and they are a force to be reconed with. This is formidable talent and needs to be recognized. In a world of canned music, they are real. Mint Condition is the truth. Submitted by stokley5000 (Chicago) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Stokely sends me.... This is a really nice collection. Stokely could sing to me about toilet paper and have me dazed. I love this man's voice. He's just as real in person as on CD.
"Pretty Brown Eyes" is one of my all time favorite tunes. Submitted by RareJule (Upstate NY) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Great Collection Every one of the hits that made them a fixture of the 90's is here. This CD is a must for the R&B lover and more importantly for those who like to hear an actual band. You know real instruments and such. Nothing like it. This is one of the few groups that emerged from the early 90's that features and actual band. A major plus in my book. Want to hear what I'm talking about? Listen to "So Fine" and you'll know instantly that these guys are true musicians. Too many hits here for me to pick out a "favorite", but if I had to pick it would likely be "So Fine" simply because it didn't get the airplay like "Breakin' My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes)" and "U Send Me Swinging ", which is what established them in the hearts of real music lovers in the 90's. Wait it gets better, they have a new CD out now (2005), it is likely their best ever single recording. Get this and their new one and you're good to go and up to day on a band that really is in "Mint Condition".
