Advantages: A new sound of old loved songs, welcomed by fans and those who enjoy that kind of music. Disadvantages: The idea of combinating rock and symphonic doesn't seem original.
...The pre-history of this album should be started like this: “Once upon a time there lived Apocalyptica. And its existence never allowed the old rockers to stay calm...” yeah, from the moment as this quartet appeared on the stage and became known, the old mastodonts started to move again and understood that there’s still one more undiscovered way to conquer the audience back: a symphonic orchestra and beloved them with a guitar in front.
The pioneer of this row of restoring popularity was Metallica, who launched and average quality double disc S&M. After a while, a Scorpions’ album, proudly entitled “Moment Of Glory”, came out. Choosing a “companion” for their symphonic album, Scorpions didn’t come down to anywhere but Berlin Philarmonic Orchestra.
First thing to mention, the material is good. Apart from those where the orchestra...

...Morning glory.. or shall we say definately glory? The best way to review this awesome cd is, to look at all the dreams and wishes made in D. Maybe, and see them all come true in Morning glory. From the burning Wah Wah on Hello, to the song of a generation that is Champagne Supernova, passing through 2 songs that will stay forever on the books of music, Wonderwall and Don't Look back in anger, serving rock'r'noll in a plate with Roll with, Morning Glory,Some Might Say, you can stare at a genious work when you listen to hey Now and Cast no Shadow and you can end with the innocent She's Electric that is one great great song. The two instrumentals, that are called Swamp Song are one demonstration that Oasis can be great without lyrics too. Add it all up, and you have the Record of a Generation , our morning glory... It's worth every coin you...
