Uk Dance music compilation.1988

Includes "Why". The first compilation charting the "Spectrum" "Shoom" scene of 1987/88. A celebration of the original Ibizan acid house scene. "Why" is the Woodentops playing live, doing what they normally did. Yet there it was in the dj's mix, the climatic 'end of the night tune'. The first UK band to have a turntable hit on the dance scene. Paul Oakenfold himself did a remix of "why", his first ever.

Paul Oakenfold: "The first summer, the summer of '87 started it all. And the track would be "Why" by the Woodentops, because of the energy and the spirit of it. It was always the last track of the night and people would just go mad for it. "
