『DEFINITIVE N-R-G』・・・N-R-Gで「エナジー」って読みます。
みるからに怪しいジャケット写真ですネ～ッ（笑）
アバクロっぽくもありますが、完全にゲイです。（って別に差別してる訳ではありません）
内容は、エイティーズ前半に欧米のゲイの人達に持てはやされ、通称『ゲイ・サウンド』とも呼ばれていたHi-NRG（ハイ・エナジー）・ミュージックのコンピレーションです。
リップマークでお馴染みの英国のHi-NRG名門レーベル『PASSION』（パッション）が監修を務めていますので選曲は申し分なし。
Vol.1～3まで全て4枚組みでリリースされたので合計12枚というかなりのボリュームです。
ちなみに4枚目にはノンストップのMega-Mixが各々収録されてます。
先日、『DANCE MUSIC LOVERS』～エイティーズ・プロデューサー列伝の第6弾で紹介した英国ロンドンを代表するプロデューサー『Legend Of Hi-NRG』Ian Levine（イアン・レビン）の名作の数々が目白押しです。
「Hi-NRG好きな方は是非揃えてみてはいかかでしょうか。」

「なっ、なんでーーーーーーーーーーーーーーッ？もしかしてチョットした嫌がらせ？？」
