Summary: The Original NE
Comment: Before mainstream and "good looks" to sell their vocals, there was New Edition. A young group of pre-teens and teens selling songs of good taste and good production.
This is what started the next wave of R&B and paved the way for groups like Boyz 2 Men, 112, and others.

Summary: Good for once
Comment: It has only a few good songs, you get bored very easily from the songs wich sound very similar between them. Poor sound quality.

Summary: A Must
Comment: If you are an 80's child and had the LP, you must buy this CD. I felt like in High School again! And my son loves "Pass the Beat". He has listened to it since he was 3 and dances to it.

Summary: The "Jackson 5" of Boston!
Comment: Say hello to Boston-based New Edition. I said the "Jackson 5" of Boston because many of these songs sound like they were recorded by the Jackson 5. Also,one of these guys sounds like the pre-teen Michael Jackson. I love that digital percussion. It motivated many rhythmic individuals to "get down and funky"! It's 1983 and those people are having a ball "breakdancing"! One Top 20 hit from this album is the title track. That does sound like a Jackson 5 recording despite the modern percussion. Another Boston-based quintet would later enjoy success,that being New Kids On The Block(later NKOTB). Also,before there was New Edition,there was the hard-rocking Aerosmith. But the latter group began back in 1973. Let's introduce the NE members:Robert Brown,who would leave the group in 1985 or early '86 for a solo career and later take Whitney Houston to be his lawfully wedded wife. Ralph Tresvant,who'd go solo in 1990 but not become as successful and famous as Brown. Richard Bell,Michael Bivins and Ronald Devoe would re-christen the downgraded group as Bell Biv Devoe that same year. The other songs are great! I first heard the NE back in late '83 or early '84. The group recorded four more albums between 1984 and '88 to fulfill their initial contract.
