Very Best Euphoric Dance Breakdown- Summer 2008 CD

Advantages: Range of great dance songs
Disadvantages: -

If your like me and love your dance music no matter what era it's in then you're going to love this cd created by the ministry of sound. I own alot of ministry of sound cds and each one never leaves me with disappoinment. I think this one is by far the best they have brought out, with songs ranging from Basshunter to Snap your garunteed to have a boogie when your listening to these cds. I'd say it's good value for money as well no matter where you buy it from as you get 3 cds with 60 great well known songs. This cd is ideal for playing in the car, or when your getting ready for a night out or even if your organising your own house party! ...

I think the album title however is a little deceiving "The Very Best of Power Ballads - The Greatest Driving Anthems ever". Now in my opinion that contradicts itself a little and I think there is a difference between Power Ballads and Driving Anthems. In my opinion a Power Ballad - as it says in the little is a ballad - quite simple and a driving anthem can actually be ...

A History of Jazz

Advantages: Fantastic
Disadvantages: There are none

A History of Jazz just has got to be one of the most comprehensive programmes on the history of jazz that I have ever come across. It is subtitled Bluesland A portrait In American Music. It shows the very heavy Blues influence on the original forms of jazz. The first section is called: Everybody got the Blues. It starts with a haunting Blues refrain, as the camera look along some railroad tracks to some plaintive blues music. The camera then shows some typical scenes of life in the south of America.

Then, comes the introduction to the programme, proper, by the host, Keith David, with Albert Murray and Robert Palmer. Keith David points out that everyone gets the blues, and that everyone develops methods of coping with the blues. His favourite ...
