Description
• The definitive collection of Midnight Star celebrating the hitmakers from the Solar Records galaxy.

• 3CD package featuring tracks from albums ‘The Beginning’ (1980), ‘Standing Together’ (1981), ‘Victory’ (1982), ‘No Parking On The Dance Floor’ (1983), ‘Planetary Invasion’ (1984), ‘Headlines’ (1986), ‘Midnight Star’ (1988), and ‘Work It Out’ (1990).

The 80s saw the Cincinnati collective traversing a variety of music genres, paying homage to psychedelic soul and disco legends such as Parliament-Funkadelic and Giorgio Moroder, paving the way for further experiments with techno-funk. ‘The Definitive Collection’ captures the decade of Midnight Star – from nascent 1980 debut ‘The Beginning’ to the 1990 album ‘Work It Out’, released shortly before the collective went on hiatus.
