The Best Review in the World...Ever!!
Review of (The) Best Classical Album in the World...Ever! by  Rogerbyname

Advantages: All the pieces are short
Disadvantages: There are 4 of them

...This is a truly awesome collection of the most popular classics. I have to say that it is probably factually correct and thus not questionable under the Trades Description Act. Here are 4, not 3, but 4 CDs packed full with a seemingly endless flow of tunes you will instantly recognise. Now, let's be honest, who will this appeal to? Well not me that's for sure, but here are the top ten reasons why buying this CD collection may be an option for you: 1. You are a child under the age of 10. 2. You want a quick bluffers guide to classical music so you can impress your mother-in-law at the Proms 3. You are a music teacher and need a resource for the class 4. You are a Classic FM fan 5. You are writing a music quiz and have no other classical CDs 6. You have a short attention span 7. You are buying something posh for your working class... Read review

Best Classical Album in the world
Review of The Best Classical Album in the World ... Ever! by  pdillon91

Advantages: Good variety or composers and styles
Disadvantages: no specific interest to one composer

...Welcome to the world of Classical Music. If you are a fanatical performer, conductor or an avid listener then this is the product for you. 'The best classical album in the world . . . ever' is exactly what it says it is. This product is best suited to the general listener, rather than the listener with a specific interest in a particular composer. But all will enjoy the variety and class that this Cd offers. Music ranging from all periods of music feature. From Baroque violin concertos to modern day film scores by Sir John Williams; there really is something for everyone. The selection of moods chosen are hugely varied, from schindlers list with its moving lyrical violin solo to the hallelujah chorus with its triumphant melodies. So whether you want to chill out or to be inspired, this is the collection for you. A bargain at under... Read review

Best Disney Album in The World... Ever.
Review of Best Disney Album In The World...Ever, The - Various Artists by  lavender37

Advantages: Great value for 3 CDs, plenty of songs for all the family to enjoy.
Disadvantages: Some periods of slow, lesser known tracks in a row.

...I bought this CD for my 6 year old Disney obsessed daughter. Great value as you get 3 CDs. All of the CDs have tracks that you and your children will recognise and know enough to sing along to, which is great for long car journeys. There is a good mixture of older Disney songs from films and TV, such as 'Have you ever seen an elephant fly' from Dumbo, and newer ones such as 'Breaking free' from High School Musical, with plenty of variety on all 3 CDs. My only criticism is that at some points on the CDs there are several slow, lesser known tracks in succession from films such as Tarzan and Mulan, which can be a bit dull. This CD can be enjoyed by adults and children alike, but I suspect once boys hit about 6 years old they would just think 'yuk' this is for girls, but luckily we haven't hit that point yet. Overall, it is well worth... Read review
