Janet Rocks! (of course)
I got this video almost 9 years ago (it's been awhile). I mainly wanted it because I had seen some of the videos for the "Rhythm Nation" album on TV before, but not all of them. When I was finally able to watch it (we had to get a new VCR), I was not disappointed. After all these years, this is still my favorite videotape to watch. Every video on it is unique in its own way. From the serious mood of "Rhythm Nation" to the slow jam "Come Back To Me" and the playful "Escapade," you see Janet at her best. My favorite song is "Escapade," and the video compliments it well. "Alright" is simply a tight video. One of my favorites. And who can forget "Love Will Never Do (Without You)"? We got a glimpse of the sexy Janet that we now know today. If you are a Janet fan, and "Rhythm Nation" is your favorite album, then GET THIS TAPE! You will not be disappointed! I still have to get the Design of a Decade and Janet videos, but the Rhythm Nation Compilation definitely satisfies my Janet cravings!

Pop Extravaganza
Janst's Rhythm Nation 1814 is now hailed as one of the most important & brilliant dance albums of our time. This DVD explains why. Featuring her 7 Top 5 US singles off the album, you appreciate not only the brilliance of the songs, but also the visual efforts which Janet makes to ensure her fans are kept on the edge of their seats. From the chair routine of Miss You Much to the military precision of the dancing in Rhythm Nation, to the carnivalesque ambience of Escapade, Janet delivers, delivers, delivers. Personal faves are the fantastic Black Cat which shows just fans relished her Rhythm nation tour & effectively captures crowd reception. Love Will Never Do - perhaps Janet's best song ever, is merely a happy video of Janet dancing on the desert & some artsy type images created thanks to guru photographer, Herb Ritz. It really is something else. Add to that the 1920s feel of Alright, & featuring a host of Cabaret legends & the romantic Come Back To Me, which is set in Paris,, & you have one heck of a varied musical & visual collection which thrills & entertains. For those not in the know, Rhythm Nation 1814 was a concept album & Janet does talk about the theme of the album & also includes a short clip of fans who have responded successfully to the album's message about self-improvement & getting an education to succeed in the world - who would have thought a dance album could do that? Ladies & Gentlemen, I give you Miss Jackson..........

Lil'kowtown's favorite music video to this day.
If Lil' kowtown still enjoys this, it must be something Big Kowtown (Bka, this reviewer and Lil's Dad) must comment on. Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation 1814" came out in '88-'89 or thereabouts. All the hits--"Miss You Much", the anthemic "Rhythm Nation", "Escapade", "Alright", "Black Cat", "Love Will Never Do Without You" (directed by fashion photographer Herb Ritts) are all here. In these vids it shows that Janet is as good or better than her big brother when it comes to dance moves. In "Miss You Much" and "Escapade" the choreography seems to be interpreting the lyrics of the jams...and there is much to see and hear in each. Plus there's the Velvet One, herself. Like Heavy D says in the preview of the tape, Janet became a role model because of "Control" but it was the "Rhythm Nation" work that made her one enduring star. That's why I think Lil' kowtown loves this tape.
