One hit wonders? Review ofRock The Night (The Very Best Of Europe) - Europeby
anneg1
Advantages: Decent metal tunes and there are 32 tracks which isn't bad for the price. Disadvantages: Quality of some of the live tracks/B-sides
It's an awful burden for bands when they have a hit that gets played just as much as "The Final Countdown" did as it often seems to override any of their other musical accomplishments. This release is an impressive collection of Europe's best tracks as well as live tracks, B-sides and demos and should go to some lengths to prove that they are not a one song band!

You should buy this album so you can play it in front of your friends for a laugh, but it is no-way insightful or easy listening. I don't know what sort of people genuinly like Europe, but i am not one (my friend bought the CD for a joke, i am borrowing it off him[???]). This will probably sell a fair few copies because it is good disco music, but it is no ...
