Legend (The Best Of Mahalia Jackson) - Mahalia Jackson

Advantages: Originality, so unique, Great sounds!
Disadvantages: None

...Michael Jackson - One of the all time legends, if not THE all time legend! His style and voice combined, gives the world something out of this world! The number ones album is packed full of all those classics: Thriller, Dirty Diana, Bad, Billie Jean and much more. This CD can be purchased from as little as £6, which i find an insult considering the quality of this mans reputation in the music industry. Value for money - Unbelievably Great! Originality - Who is more original than Michael Jackson? You wont find anything else like it. Lyrics - Again very original (Puts a smile on your face - So emotional) Every track is as good as the last. Michael Jackson number ones This CD should be in every CD collection... Read review

Advantages: Quirky, likeable and original. A great collection of addictive tracks

Whether it's the impressively appealing alt-country swing of 'Miniskirt' or the predictably catchy, hook drenched "Na na na" chorus of 'This Day' or even the dubiously clichéd, yet still unsettling monotone voiceover of 'Fill Me With Apples' - you're going to find something you like.

Unbreakable This starts off the album in a superb way with a full on stomper of a track which features a stupendous beat which is accompanied by the many hooks. It also features background vocals from Brandy and a rap sample from Notorious BIG. This is a great start to the album and is a preview of the way the first three tracks go. 2.) Heartbreaker This is another uptempo stomper but though not quite as heavy as the opening track it still features a beat that thumps along and some funky hooks. Jackson's vocals start understated then he gradually gets louder as the song progresses. This track is about a relationship that has gone wrong that you... Read review
