Eagles Greatest Hits

Advantages: all the best hits in one place
Disadvantages: none

Excellent album,well done.Brings back memories of good times long past. Would recommend it to any Eagles fan. I saw it in WHSmith and bought it on impulse, as it has been ages since I have heard any Eagles music. I was not dissapponted. It is an impressive compilation of the very best songs by the group and very enjoyable to listen to. I am very happy with what was basically an impulse purchase. Takes me back years....Hotel California,Peaceful Easy ...

Lesbos, Lesbos Everywhere.

Advantages: The first few songs are pretty good.
Disadvantages: The rest is a bunch of crap that she wrote and recorded solely for the Grammy Award she got from it. Bah!

...buying?" In my opinion, yes and no. Yes if you can find it on sale or pirate it from the Internet. No if you think it's good enough to pay full retail price for. I didn't pay full price, of course, being the cheap miser that I am. (Note: For great used albums that are guaranteed not to be abused, scratched, or otherwise painfully mistreated, visit SecondSpin.com - they also have DVD movies and video cassettes up for grabs at very reasonable prices). ...
...for the great guitar playing and backup musicians that find their way onto her records. Some will say they enjoy the same tired-ass "Love is great," "Love sucks," "My heart is broken," "I love love" type of messages that Etheridge is forever putting onto CD and unleashing on us. Others will say that she's one of the greatest musicians in the world today, and that she ought to be in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame the moment she is eligible for that ...

Spot on even seventeen years on!

Advantages: Faultless album
Disadvantages: Absolutely none

...tracks and these are: Nick of Time, Thing called Love, Love Letter, Cry on my Shoulder, Real Man, Somebody's Girl, Have a Heart, Too Soon to Tell, I Will not be Denied, I Ain't Gonna Let You Break My Heart Again, The road's my Middle Name. All the songs are about life's experiences which is probably why the listener can so identify with them and mean something to them. There is a track for everyone on this album. 1. NICK OF TIME This song is ...
...about a friend of Bonnie's whose biological clock was slowly running out, .but just in the 'nick of time' finds love. The piano is played by Raitt on this track. 2. THING CALLED LOVE Good bass riff for intro and then lead and drums following in. Great foot-stomping beat with the slide guitar making a notable first entrance on the album. 3.LOVE LETTER This is nicely toned down, with a slow sexy drum intro. Bonnie's soulful voice is so pleasing ...

Banjo for the modern man

Advantages: Superb harmonies, excellent musicianship, modern take on bluegrass
Disadvantages: One misplaced track

Not surprisingly given its title, IV is the North Carolina quartet's fourth album and their most commercial to date. While the band have certainly not abandoned their bluegrass roots they have successfully crossed over into something more accessible, a kind of 'newgrass' if you like. I'd only vaguely heard of the band before their appearance on BBC's Later with Jools Holland earlier this year and I'm not sure that reviews of their previous albums ...
...fall under the bluegrass banner, IV as a whole is better described as 'Americana'; pedal steel and steel guitar send the songs more in the direction of alt country and should appeal to the wider audience than the banjo dominated songs that used to be the trademark of CCL. On IV, CCL show that they are no one trick pony. From the opening track, "Chip of a Star" through to the finale "Thanks", this is a collection of songs that move seamlessly from ...

You better you better you bet

Advantages: Read text thanks
Disadvantages: Read text thanks

...This is a greatest hits album from a band who I have up there as one of the master bands of Rock and Roll music. I am sure some of this bands songs have appeared on movies as soundtracks. In addition the main reason I bought this album is because they included the song you better you bet as track number 16 as well as the classic song 'who are you'. Largely because of these two classic tracks I bought the album as I wanted to listen to other tracks ...
...songs all of which were greatest hits by the Who. I will try to describe and detail as best as I can on a track by track basis. ------------------------------- Track 1: I can't explain: This perhaps is an interesting song, as it starts off in a punchy and forceful way on the guitar as well as having nice to hear lyrics. The song provided me with a pleasant mood to hear other songs on the list. Overall I find this a really great track that really ...
