0602527229751. Pre-Owned: Good condition. CD. Number Ones replaces Design of a Decade released 14 years prior. Excepting the new song Make Me (hard neo-disco/funk excellence) each song here was indeed a number one hit on Billboard s various charts though Got Til It s Gone sneaks through a side door via the Japanese charts. One number one oddly is missing: So Excited a perfectly fine 2006 single which topped the club chart. This set is more thorough with 1986-1996 too adding Herb Alpert s Diamonds -- which would not have been out of place on Control given Jam & Lewis production and Janet s precedence over Alpert s trumpet -- as well as The Best Things in Life Are Free (with Luther Vandross) -- all the smashes off janet. and Scream (with her brother). Say what you want about Janet peaking with Jam & Lewis during the latter half of the 80s -- to be fair the argument is valid -- but she did rack up a career s worth of solid hits during the years that followed. Even if they were not as sonically innovative and lacked the same amount of pop appeal of the Control/Rhythm Nation-era singles they clearly made a significant impact and have aged well. Four of the songs first compiled on Design of a Decade appear in slightly different forms which could make a minor difference for the fans that are most hardcore. This includes the 7 video version of Alright the album version of Control the short solo single version of Black Cat and what is likely the single edit of Rhythm Nation. ~ Andy Kellman Rovi
