Pre-Madonna Reviews:
good going stranger 
2007-11-27 - "Pre-Madonna" is a bootleg CD that first went on sale 11 years ago. The date of 7-23-03 is totally incorrect, perhaps that is the date that it was first offered on this site. It was originally only offered by ordering it over the phone (no Internet ordering!) and it came out in late '96/early '97; to capitalize on Madonna's popularity due to EVITA. The songs on this CD are a lot like the songs on Madonna's first studio album, aptly titled Madonna. Although this is an unofficial recording (unofficial defined as not giving any proceeds to the recording artist,) the quality is excellent and the tracks are first rate. If you are a Madonna fan, collector or just someone that enjoys early 80's music you will enjoy this CD. There are several other bootleg Madonna CDs (released in the early 90's and mid/late 80's after she hit it big,) but this is the very best one!
Early Madonna 
2007-10-10 - This is MUCH better than the "Madonna: The Early Years" bootleg that's been floating around on the internet for years. This CD is actually some real demos recorded by Madonna before her first album was released in 1982. They're by no means the same calibur that the Queen of pop continues to release today, but these songs are cute.
"Crimes Of Passion", "Laugh To Keep From Crying" and 2 of my favorites on this CD. If you're a Madonna fan, you need to have this in your collection. It also contains 2 versions of "Ain't No Big Deal" that was later recorded and released as a B-side to the "Papa Don't Preah" single from her "True Blue" album.
TRACK LISTING: (Grrrrr!!!)
2006-09-02 - I hate when the page does not have the track listing. No wonder some people don't like internet shopping, grrrrr!
1. Laugh to Keep From Crying
2. Crimes of Passion
3. Ain't No Big Deal ('97 Edit)
4. Everybody ('97)
5. Burning Up
6. Ain't No Big Deal ('81)
7. Everybody ('81)
8. Stay ('81)
9. Don't You Know
10. Ain't No Big Deal ('97 Extended Version)
Basically, this is Madonna's pre-stardom demo material. It is okay but I would recommend it only for those who collect all things Madonna. Some of the material was remixed into dance or down-tempo versions probally to jump on the remix bandwagon as remixing has become commonplace these days.
