Amazing collection of songs from The Smiths. This is for piano/guitar/voice. Most songs seem to be in the original key or close.

Great collection from one of my all time favourite musician.
I believe all those British groups starting from the Beatles and the Rolling Stones owes their successes to this man also the Beach Boys copy from him.

I'm really new to the Stranglers in the big picture of things. Either they never really crossed over the Atlantic or when they did I was off doing other things, or both. So I only got into the Stranglers about two years ago. I got a very best of cd and it has gotten me hooked to acquire their whole catalog. I've got 4 cd's in and each one has at least 2 or 3 really good songs on it (probably more its still very early, I got them today). All I can say about this collection is that I am amazed that the Stranglers have put out so many different live and greatest hits cd's. Amazon has listed 90 Strangler items and I would bet that 20 of them are unique live and greatest hits cd's. If you buy one of these, chances are after a while you will yearn for everything they put out, the songs are that good.

If you liked or loved any or all of the Smiths,The Churh, or Echo, you would enjoy this entire album. Not a bad song on it. The editing is wonderful and flows from beginning to end. Typical lyrics for the eighties and great uplifting sing along songs(choruses at a minimum). No doubt you will be turning this up in the car and joining in at the risk of embarrasment. Some pretty good lap or steering wheel drum beats too. Enjoy !!!!!!

This is an absolutely wonderful collection. It is basically a GREATEST HITS of Goblin and honestly, for anyone who has no idea what to expect from Goblin, you would be best off buying this collection before anything else.

You get some of their best non-movie-soundtrack songs such as "Dr. Frankenstein" and "Snip Snap" as well as all the movie themes and songs that made them so well known, like "Profondo Rosso", "Suspiria", and "Connexion" to name a few.

I've never heard any band creating such a dark sound with prog. The chemistry between the band members must have been natural and absolutely flawless as the work together between the bass, drums, and keyboards are nothing short of mind-blowing.

Ever since I got a hold of this, I have not stopped listening to it on regular rotation, and I believe it will be a while until I give it a rest. There is nothing else quite like GOBLIN in the world of music and there probably never will be again.

I am a great fan of Slade. One of the most succesful acts in UK in the 70's, they created a great bunch of now legendary records. But under those well-known songs, lie some gems that had to wait a long time to be heard in CD format. This collection of B-sides shows the great musicianship of these guys and the wide range of musical styles they played. My favourites (just to name a few) are: Wonderin Y (?why this did not was an A side?), the swing version of My oh my (equally better than original) where Noddy shows his great vocal skills apart from screaming, Red hot. A great place for new fans to know this fantastic and underrated group and a must buy for long time fans.

I am loving this new group of songs. It has a good mix of old school Steve Taylor with some new sounds to round it out. As with previous Steve Taylor outings the lyrics are inspired. Listening to these songs made me want to pull out some old Steve Taylor CD's and tapes and Reminisce, and so I did.

Awesome collection of songs here that the casual fan wouldn't have. Some real gems here and a few surprises for even the most die hard fan! Vinyl sounds fantastic for a picture disc

This is a fantastic Bessie Smith collection. Beautifully presented. I wasn't sure if I wanted 4 CDs of BS music. But now I'm more than happy. Many of the songs have the same tempo and approach, with very much a stage-show feel, rather than the sassy, raw vocals that followed with the likes of Billie Holiday. Still its great music. Thanks Proper Music. Great job.

This is really a joy to listen to.  So many classic tracks on this compilation.  Somewhere between Punk's inspiration and pop's dance ability there were many wondrous pop/rock classics written in the late 70's and a lot of them are here, including the best Pub-Rock/Punk anthem ever from 'Eddie & the Hot Rod's' with "Do Anything you wanna do", the most singalongable song from 77' with 'Tom Robinson Band's' "2-4-6-8 Motorway", the yobbish almost punk stylings of the 'Skids' 'Into the Valley' which kicks off with one of the best opening bass lines in punk/pop history to the completely incomprehensible but insanely singalongable chorus line, the bubbly frantic fun of the 'Rezillo's' "Top of the Pops", the unbelievably wonderful 'Undertones' "Teenage Kicks" (John Peel's favorite record) which is probably worth the price of admission all on it's own, the sexy pulsating punk/pop of 'XTC's' "This is Pop" and the first signs of the huge talents to come from the team of Difford/Tilbrook with the 'Squeeze's' "Take me I'm yours".

Hey I could single out every single track here.  This was a time when the '45' was king and that little 7" piece of vinyl had a special place in all our hearts.  A truly magical time in the post-punk era showing the best of what the U.K. had to offer.  You can't go wrong with this compilation.

Sure, the cover art bites, but song for song, this is the strongest collection on the market. This CD is essentially the U.S. "Singles" comp plus five glorious songs (including the infectious "Still Ill.") Fans used to the "Hatfull" versions of "This Charming Man" and "Hand in Glove" will be shocked by the eerie production John Porter gives the originals. So, until the four studio albums get digitally remastered with all the singles and B-sides put on them as bonus tracks, The Very Best of the Smiths will be the best way to go for fan and novice alike.

This is an essential part of anyone's music collection. It is an absolutely fantastic representation of their work, including both some of their biggest hits and some lesser known wonderful live songs.

This collection of Ozzy songs is absolutely wonderful.  When I bought the CD I knew very few songs by Ozzy(Crazy Train, Flying High Again, Paranoid, Mama I'm Coming Home, No More Tears), but this collection is so good, now I love nearly every song on the album.  Whether it's the early stuff with Randy Rhoads (Crazy Train, Mr. Crowley, I Don't Know, Over the Mountain), Bark at the Moon with Jake E. Lee, or the newer stuff with Zakk Wylde (No More Tears, I Just Want You, Miracle Man) everything is awesome.  I highly recommend this to anyone who's a fan of metal/hard rock.  It's simply this best Ozzy collection one could want!

A great collection of familiar songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's.  I recommend this to any music lover out there.

This is a fabulous collection of Dennis Brown songs - so many hits that I had even forgotten he did.  What an amazing singer and songwriter as he wrote almost all of these songs too.  If you like Dennis Brown at all or just want a taste of what true reggae from the 70s and 80s sounds like, this is the one for you.
