Question: Adventures on the Wheels of Steel is a 3CD compilation album by Grandmaster Melle Mel, and Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, were an American hip hop group formed in the South Bronx of New York City in which year?
Context: Melvin Glover (born May 15, 1961), better known as Melle Mel and Grandmaster Melle Mel, is an American hip-hop musician – one of the pioneers of rap as lead rapper and main songwriter for Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five. Adventures on the Wheels of Steel is a 3CD compilation album by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five and Grandmaster Melle Mel.  It was released in 1999 on the Castle Music label and is a boxed set containing three CDs in slimline jewel cases together with a fold out insert. Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five were an American hip hop group formed in the South Bronx of New York City in 1976.  Composed of one DJ (Grandmaster Flash) and five rappers (Melle Mel, The Kidd Creole, Keith Cowboy, Mr. Ness/Scorpio, and Rahiem), the group's use of turntablism, break-beat deejaying, and conscious lyricism were significant in the early development of hip hop music. Greatest Messages is a compilation album release by Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five ("On The Strength" is their official second album).  It was released in January 1984, and it is a compilation of their Sugar Hill Records hit singles including "The Message".  Over half of the tracks were single-only releases prior to this compilation.  Singles from Melle Mel are also on this compilation. Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five is a compilation album release by Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five ("On The Strength" is their official second album).  It was released in July 1983, and it is a compilation of their Sugar Hill Records hit singles including "The Message", "New York New York and "White Lines".  Over half of the tracks were single-only releases prior to this compilation. The Greatest Mixes is a remix compilation album by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five originally released by Sanctuary Records in 1997 in the United Kingdom.  It contains rare non-album tracks and new and original remixes from both Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five and Grandmaster Melle Mel. Grandmaster Melle Mel and the Furious Five was released in 1984 by Sugarhill Records after the split between Grandmaster Flash and Melle Mel.  For this album, Melle Mel kept the group name 'the Furious Five' (although the line-up changed) and used the title 'Grandmaster'.  Rappers Cowboy and Scorpio left with Melle Mel although Mel's brother The Kidd Creole (N. Glover) and Rahiem remained with Flash.  New rappers King Lou, Kami Kaze, and Tommy Gunn joined, as did Flash's best friend E. Z. Mike as DJ. They Said It Couldn't Be Done is the third album released by Grandmaster Flash, which followed the breakup of the Furious Five because of the departure of rappers Melle Mel, Scorpio, and Keith Cowboy.  For "They Said It Couldn't Be Done", Flash signed with Elektra Records and retained the services of Rahiem and The Kidd Creole.  New rappers Lavon (Kevin LaVon Dukes), Mr Broadway (Russell Wheeler), and dancer Larry Love (Larry Parker) were added.  It was originally released in April 1985.  It was re-issued on CD in the US for the first time in 2005 (DBK Works dbk514). It was the first album the group released on a major label.  It was produced by Gavin Christopher and Grandmaster Flash (the group).  The album also included "Girls Love the Way He Spins," "Sign of the Times" "Paradise," and "Rock the House (Alternate Groove)."  It was the first hip hop album released by Elektra Records. The Official Adventures of Grandmaster Flash is a DJ mix album by Grandmaster Flash and was released in January 2002.  It is a mix album consisting of interview snippets, newly recorded old school hip hop mixes, live Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five segments and four other tracks by various artists that were popular in Flash's early DJ repertoire. Quickly, podiums enlarged their performances from dancers only to rappers as well.  It was a time when soon-to-be hip hop artists were still mimicking American artists they actively used to listen to such Africa Bambaataa, Grandmaster Flash, Furious Five, Delight, Doug E. Fresh or Public Enemy for the most well-known.  Indeed, rap, the MC performance, was still then a phonetic repetition, a copycatting of either American rappers or, with Hip Hop booming in France in the 1980s, of French hip hop artists such as Assassin, NTM, IAM or Mc Solaar.  Without the real capacity for translating the movement and its expressions in Senegalese terms yet, the mid-1980s in Dakar were however definitively hip hop.  And whenever the classical hip hop film Beat Street was circulating in local cinemas, young people were following the movie from showroom to showroom in order to view it again and again and to know by heart the famous lyrics of Grandmaster Flash.
