Black Talk (Rudy Van Gelder Remaster) - Charles Earland

Spirit Of Eden - Talk Talk

Advantages: arguably the greatest album in the world
Disadvantages: none at all

Talk Talk spent ten months crafting their 1988 masterpiece. They were allowed complete creative freedom by EMI and the record company was stunned by the end result. No hits, no "Life's What You Make It" part II, no chart material of any kind - precisely what talk Talk wanted. Nothing had been planeed in advance, the album was organically grown from lengthy jams and improvised music. Via the medium of the new digital recording desk at Wessex Studios Mark Hollis and Tim Friese-Greene were able to move hundreds of sections of music around, some only seconds long, in order to create the finished work.

Review of Spirit Of Eden [Remastered] - Talk Talk

The Charles Bridge

Advantages: Free entrance, beutifully built, historic attraction
Disadvantages: Can get very busy

Charles Bridge is probably one of Pragues most recognised landmarks. For many years, Charles Bridge was the only way to cross the River Vltava that flows through the middle of the City. Nowadays there are many bridges connecting Old Town Prague and the New Town but there is still something very special about the Charles Bridge that makes it stand out from all the others.

Today, the Charles Bridge can only be crossed on foot, but with it being a very popular attraction in Prague, it is literally crammed with crowds of people all day long.

Review of Charles Bridge, Prague

AC/DC - Back In Black [Remastered]

Advantages: Brilliant solos, amazing songs, a sound like no other
Disadvantages: You will play it to much

This is a must have for any rock fan. The ultimate comeback album. Unforgetable riffs, equisit musical percission and killer vocals that most would find impossible to recreate. Tracks such as Back in Black, You shook me all night long and hells bells fill you with excitment and you just cant sit still. The sound is of a higher quality than the original so you can hear exactly how he songs should sound, but if u want the to capture the heart of the music , it wont be as good as the hard to find orginal. If you have never heard of AC/DC this is a great album to buy and if your new to rock, this is deffinatly the place to start, From the very first chime in hells bells to the dying of the guitar in Rock and roll aint noise pollution this album produces non stop hard rocking electiric beats. ONe of the best abums ever made ...
