Although the video game Grand Theft Auto: Vice City takes place in the 1980s, its musical accompaniment leaps light years beyond the simplistic plink-plonking found on that decade's primitive gaming systems. GTA's whopping seven-CD soundtrack set (also available as individual volumes) culls the best of the decade of decadence's musical offerings. V-Rock, and Wave 103 spotlight the '80s musical mainstays, hairsprayed heavy metal and bursts of fizzy New Wave electro-pop, while saccharine love songs and mellow light rock populate the next two discs: Emotion 98.3 and Flash FM, respectively. Volume 5, the appropriately titled Wildstyle Pirate, celebrates the origins of hip-hop and DJ culture; Fever 105 focuses on sizzling soul; and Radio Espantoso rounds out the set with upbeat Cuban jazz hybrids. With such differing styles, not every disc will appeal to every listener. And not every CD is mixed well--Fever 105 can be monotonous, and Emotion 98.3's tunes are overplayed. However, the best part about GTA is its often surprising musical selections: Tears for Fears' morose "Pale Shelter," the long mix of Grandmaster Flash's "The Message," and Mary Jane Girls' slinky "All Night Long." Throwing in lesser-known musical gems among the hits adds spice and unexpected turns, which redeem GTA's shortcomings and make this set a treat for everyone, not just fans of the game. --Annie Zaleski

 Good Soundtrack January 23, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this soundtrack expecting to find hits from the eighties whose performers were unknown for me. I used to know some songs but not who was singing them, and I think I got what I expected.
 One of the best box sets of 80's music around December 10, 2007
Without a doubt, for the money I paid and the amount of music I got, this is one of the best musical purchases I've ever made.
Not complete...but still great! May 22, 2007
First of all, this is a great soundtrack to purchase for anyone who enjoys just driving around Vice City and listening to the radio. This is the reason why I bought it. However, there were a few disappointments. When I purchased the Grand Theft Auto Vice City Soundtrack Box Set, I expected every song from every music station to be included. Although most of the songs are included, a few were not. I feel that this is made up for, though, by the inclusion of DJ banter and various commercials from the game.
One thing that I feel would have improved this soundtrack set would be to include the K-Chat and VCPR stations. These were both favorites of mine (along with Wave 103).
Overall, I have to say that the GTA Vice City Soundtrack Box Set is a great buy if you enjoy the multiple radio stations, or if you simply want to add to your Grand Theft Auto collection! I was certainly satisfied.
Wow-wah Wee-wah! March 21, 2007
Awesome stuff. All the kooky music of the 80's. All of the ads and DJs from the game and a pretty neat Vice City box to boot.
Don't waste time with the greatest hits, buy the box set and make your own greatest hits tapes!
Great Music Collections, hours of music for not much money February 14, 2007
I love my box set. It has an amazing collection of just about every type of music from the 80s, pop, funk, new wave and heavy metal. It's a great 80s box set just as it is, not to mention it also includes a really great CD with alot of classic Cuban music on it, with essential stuff by Beny More and Tito Puente. A great sampler, really! Perfect for an 80s party or cocktail party or even a drive to the beach with the top down and the windows open and "the Outfield" or "Ozzy" blaring out the stereo. And of course, if your a Grand Theft Auto fanatic this is a must have just for that.
