A-Ha - Definitive Collection?
Review of Definitive Singles Collection 1984-2004, The [ECD] - A-Ha by  sobelecta

Advantages: Very good first half.
Disadvantages: Bad second half.

...A-Ha will probably always be remembered mostly for their hit single in the 80's ' Take On Me' and the video that accompanied it, which featured groundbreaking animation at the time. But there was always a lot more to a-ha then this, as shown on this greatest hits collection. While there is that excellent hit, there are also other notable hits, including 'Hunting High And Low', 'The Sun Always Shines on TV' and 'The Living Daylights', which all have a great melancholic quality to them which is echoed in the sound of bands around today like Coldplay and Keane, who have both stated that they are huge fans of a-ha. And rightfully so, a-ha have a knack for writing excellent pop songs, which is showed beautifully on the album 'Hunting High And Low'. But this isn't that album. This collection ranges from 1994 to 2004. And like most bands... Read review

Delve into Norman Cooks collection
Review of Norman Cook Collection - Fatboy Slim by  dsra999

Advantages: Gives Normans fans an idea of how his musical taste and talent has developed
Disadvantages: May not be to everyone's taste

...Norman Cook really first arrived on the music scene by developing his dj'ing skills on Brightons club scene at the early age of 18 whilst he was studying at the University of Brighton. A little while on in 1985 a friend of Cook's named Paul Heaton had a new guitar group called the Housemartins, but unfortunately they had just lost their bass player, so Heaton then contacted Cook who agreed to be their new bass player. The Housemartins had a few big hits such as Happy Hour and Caravan Love but by 1988 they had split up, this is where Cook then wen't off and his career started to get going. The album "The Fatboy Slim/Norman Cook collection" gives an insight into how Cook's career has progressed along with his musical tastes, for example after the split of the Housemartins Cook soon formed the group Beats International which...

Review of The World of Borodin by  MAFARRIMOND

Advantages: Best of Borodin's compositions
Disadvantages: Extracts only

...beautiful and moving piece is performed outstandingly well by the Borodin Quartet. Borodin dedicated The Nocturne to his wife, Ekaterina. In this piece he uses instruments to represent both his wife and himself. The dominant cello, prominent throughout the piece represents (yes you have guessed it), Borodin and a sweet first violin represents Ekaternia. The music delightfully soothing, as the two main instruments play their melodic lines contrapuntally weaving in and out of prominence, creating a warm and sensual sensation of peace and tranquility. As you can probably tell this my favorite piece on the album. Borodin wrote little in the way of piano music but his Scherzo in A flat major (track 4) played skillfully by Vladimir Ashkenazy this piece shows the technical virtuosity in piano but to little musical effect. Although a pianist my self... Read review
