Gregorian Chant - The Very Best Of Canto Gregoriano (Special Anniversary Edition) - Various Artists

Gregorian Chant

Advantages: Fantastic Gregorian Chants
Disadvantages: None

The Gregorian Chant is probably one of the finest types of choral singing ever. In the entire history of the whole world. That's just so as you know where I am coming from on this one! The history of the Gregorian Chant is an old one. It dates back to at least to the time of Pope Gregory I or Gregory the Great as he was otherwise known. Gregory abandoned his life as an up -and-coming young Roman patrician, of whom great things were expected. But he became a monk, instead. After being ordained by the pope, he eventually became pope himself. He served as pope between 590 to 604. Pope Gregory worked hard to formalise and bring togther the varied types of church singing as part of the Mass. And the result of his work was the Gregorian Chant.

Very Best Euphoric Dance Breakdown- Summer 2008 CD

Advantages: Range of great dance songs
Disadvantages: -

If your like me and love your dance music no matter what era it's in then you're going to love this cd created by the ministry of sound. I own alot of ministry of sound cds and each one never leaves me with disappoinment. I think this one is by far the best they have brought out, with songs ranging from Basshunter to Snap your garunteed to have a boogie when your listening to these cds. I'd say it's good value for money as well no matter where you buy it from as you get 3 cds with 60 great well known songs. This cd is ideal for playing in the car, or when your getting ready for a night out or even if your organising your own house party! ...

Review of Very Best Of Euphoric Dance Breakdown - Summer 2008, The - Various Artists

Full of 80's Favourites

Advantages: 3 Great CD's, excellent compilation
Disadvantages: -

I've always been a fan of Power Ballad's and used to often watch the Magic Channel when they had them on for hours and hours so when I opened this for my birthday I was ecstatic. This sort of music takes me back to my childhood and reminds me of times that I spent with my grandparents at there house, as they were obsessed with music and anything in the hit parade as it was called then was purchased on vinyl which now all reside in a huge cabinet at my nan's house. I think the album title however is a little deceiving "The Very Best of Power Ballads - The Greatest Driving Anthems ever". Now in my opinion that contradicts itself a little and I think there is a difference between Power Ballads and Driving Anthems. In my opinion a Power Ballad - as it says in the little is a ballad - quite simple and a driving anthem can actually be ...
