Excellent Evita

Advantages: A pure, raw and brilliantly original cd.
Disadvantages: N/A

One of the most historic and successful shows produced by Andrew Lloyd Weber and Tim Rice. This recording pre Madonna's film version still remains a classic and a sure fire hit. This original compilation two cd version of the show allows for a lot of open interpretations to these now recognised classic songs, with top notch performances from Julie Covington, Paul Jones and even Tony Christie. A very emotional yet raw production that shows the quality ...

Pulp Fiction Sounds

Advantages: Varity of music
Disadvantages: Dont know!

...to Quentin Tarantino's breakthrough movie Pulp Fiction is arguably one of the best soundtrack albums you'll ever hear. Like Tarantino's other movie soundtracks like Reservoir Dogs and Kill Bill, it combines a few great songs that were past hits with tracks that most music listeners have never heard before. Unlike those soundtracks, Pulp Fiction is great from beginning to end with the more obscure tracks being arguably better than the more established ...
...hits are very strong. Kool & The Gang's "Jungle Boogie" is one of the best funk jams from the '70s. Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" is '70s soul at its best. Chuck Berry's "You Never Can Tell", Dusty Springfield's "Son Of A Preacher Man", Ricky Nelson's "Lonesome Town", and the Statler Brothers' "Flowers On The Wall" with its catchy chorus are also great tracks. This a great soundtrack to what was arguably one of the best movies of the '90s. ...

The Phantom of the Opera

Advantages: Powerful, soft, embracing - everything!
Disadvantages: None

...foreign tongue, but thankfully, The Phantom of the Opera is spoken in English. You are able to understand what is being said, the story that is being told and you are able to identify the atmosphere from the story by the way the music is performed. The story is based on love and admiration, which then turns foul. Definitely an interesting story. Oh, and just in case you didn't pick up on something that was said, there should be a booklet with all ...
...Angel of Music Mirror, The Phantom of the Opera, The (Fantastic duet) Music of the Night, The (Mesmerising solo) Prima Donna All I Ask Of You Masquerade (Has an upbeat to it) Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again Point Of No Return, The However, do not be put off by it not containing all of the songs from the musical. As listed above, all of the hits are there. I really like "Think of Me", it's soft and light. You can hear the admiration between ...

Jurassic Park

Advantages: Classic John Williams adventure score
Disadvantages: Some of the music may be a little hard listening

...in the entertainment field with Jurassic Park. Jurassic Park was based on the book by Michael Crichton which dealt with the possibilities of DNA technology and what man would be able to do with it when he was given such power to play God. Driven by a desire to create life, but at the same time to make this technology into a popular attraction for people around the world, John Hammond (Richard Attenborough) took this technology and brought real living ...
...score. The score for Jurassic Park, although eclipsed by its more famous brother of the same year, is one of the best efforts by Williams in his post Star Wars years of 1977-1983. It's deft mix of the elements of adventure, fantasy and horror, knit in a fabric of thematic richness and orchestral splendour not often found in Williams' most recent efforts, has made it an instant crowd pleaser as well as proving to be one of the greatest initiators ...
