This is truly what the 70's were all about

I was introduced to the sound track back when it came out, Didn't even know there was a movie! Both the sound track; LOVE Neil Diamond, and the movie are PERFECTION! One could meditate to the whole thing, IT'S JUST AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL!

It is difficult to fathom that this music was produced in the early 1970's, as it is still more than relevant.  Robert Fripp took the road less traveled and his adventures are otherworldly.  He easily could have attained the popularity and financial heights of Pink Floyd, ELP, and Yes.  The music here is beyond progressive.  It is in a class by itself.  This, my friends, is sheer brilliance.  The audio quality is far superior, than that on the previous box sets.  If you dig the true King, buy this one NOW!

Who of us ,that enjoyed this when we were in our youth, would believe that we would actually see the year 2000. In 1974 it seemed unfathomable. Actually,I had thought this music would have been forgotten as Capricorn records bankrupted years ago. Im happy to see that they are back. These tunes on this CD are way before their time. It seems like they encompass eveything from BOWIE to Deep Purple coming in with some Guns n Roses and even Eric Claptons sound of guitar licks. We ll all ride high(Moneybag$) Showdown and Black Widow Lover are the highpoints but every one of these tracks are worth the bucks! NP

Good song that captures the music mood of the mid 70s - your want to listen to it over and over.

Along with the first two US albums this showcases exactly why the Stones were such a hit by being the polar opposite of the Beatles.  It wasn't a matter of whether or not you preferred one group over the other (in fact, most kids at that time loved both bands), it was a matter of them so completely complimenting each other that competition was not an issue.  What they really had in common was great drummers.  Just listen to Charlie's wonderful tubs!  And Mick's voice, of course.  They had a knack of finding those amazing rhythm and blues "B" sides that were just plain cool to listen to.  This is a classic and showed the group to be maturing in their musicianship long before they started being the songwriting force that dominated the later lps.

Music from the 50' through the 70's are the golden years of music. I'm glad to have lived and still living those great songs.

i have a copy of this in vinyl, i bought it back in my teen days in the 70s (back in england).. a double record set, complete with booklet.  pretty cool, and i remember listening over n over again to it, driving my parents crazy,  i loved it!

when i heard they had made the war of the worlds movie, i made my teenage kids listen to the "LP".... they weren't too impressed with it....i guess i am getting old, showing my age here (45)!

not to worry, the 70s stuff is the best!

A classic that captures 70's heartache and the music that set us all free to explore these wonderful  years.

My little brother bought this album (vinyl) back in the day. I wasn't impressed with it then, but now that I am beginning to be more nostalgic I am find I want a lot of the music I listened to from the 70's. The sound on this CD is great, in fact I think it might be better than the original album. I couldn't be happier and I listen to it all the time.

Ah back in the day.  Thatcher, unemployment, strikes, NF, left wing demos, cold war, the indie charts, Diana.  Then it all turned into Blair, Brit-pop, plastic socialists and chav rap.

This band really captured the spirit of the 80s.  I am kind of sick of people these days going on about their 'political lyrics' er you see back then musicians were independent of big record companies and wrote about what they felt like rather than what was dictated to them to make as much money in as short a time as possible.  That's why these days you have 5 minute wonders in the charts and bands like these are still listened to 2 decades later.

Raw Clash style music or even early Police played with the anger that many in that time felt.  Too many songs to mention that really stand out but listening to them just really brings it all back.

"Living in a bedsit....bunking on the tube trains....sleeping all day long..and you know no one cos you don't go out.."

"They always try to blame it on the blacks but it's really those in power who stab you in the back...."

"Now I joined the army and believe it or not...I'm going to Northern Ireland and I'm gonna' get shot!"

Ah the memories!

They may not have had the big budgets for sets like they do today but the writing and content is so much better than the politically correct garbage that passes for TV today.  What a pleasure it is to go back to the late 70's early 80's with Dallas.

Wow, totally impressed listening to this CD took me back to the late 60's and early 70's. When I was on the west coast and life was cool or so I thought. Still it brought alot of great memories from days gone by so turn on the way-back machine.
