A list from the past...
Men At Work - Business As Usual
My first recording ever purchased, it still has some staying power. Down Under is a pretty cool song. In fact there is no song on the recording that I really do not like, rare for anything I own.
Michael Bolton - Greatest Hits
Lots of good songs (I said I loved You But I Lie, Steal Bars, How Can We Be Lovers, I Found Someone) and a few sucky ones, like Georgia on my Mind. I didn't realize I was a MB fan until I bought this one.
Mike and The Mechanics
I bought it for Silent Running, and found that I really liked about half of the other songs on recording, too! Interesting fact: The slower songs sound much better played back sped up...
The Moody Blues - Time Traveler
It doesn't get much better than the last 3 CDs in this boxed set. The Moodies rock.
Rod Stewart - Story Teller
Another Boxed Set. The first 2 CDs suck. The last 2 Rule. It only cost me 16 bucks, but I am sorry I bought this one, I should of just bought ROD's newest 3 CDs for the same amount. (Note, I am a member of BMG, hence the low price).
David Lanz - Skyline Firedance
Awesome! The best piano work I have ever heard. The orchestrated works also rule. If you like Lanz, you own yourself this CD, Right Now! The Nights in White Satin cover defies words.
Micheal Jackson - Bad
His best CD, I like every song on the CD. Smooth Criminal and Bad are the best, but like I said, the are all worth listening too.
Genesis - We Can't Dance
Another CD that doesn't suck. Every song is good enough to play, altho I can't Dance, No Son of Mine, Jesus He Knows Me, and Dreaming While You Sleep are head a shoulders above the rest.
Vangelis - Direct
His best work, IMHO. A mixture of hard hitting new age (pop?) and smooth new age. Every second of it is pure magic.
Laura Branigan - The Best of
The Night is my world - You make me loose my self control. The first time I heard this song (called Self Control) I knew I loved it. Many, Many years later I finally found out whose it was. A few days later the CD was in my greedy hands, and I found out much to my pleasure that the first 3 songs on the CD also ruled, along with track 12, Self Control.
Ace of Base - The Sign
I only bought this one because I needed to select 6 free CDs when I joined BMG. What luck, it has many cool songs, and no bad ones.
Ace of Base - The Bridge
A real flop on the market, I didn't know this when I bought it. After my smashing success with The Sign I was ready to try anything with their name on it. More refined than The sign, this has some kick ass tracks, and some sucky ones too. Too many references to god, over all.
Enya - Watermark
Sail away, Sail away, Sail away. The first time I heard this, those where the only lyrics I could remember, but I knew I loved the song. I only heard it one more time on the radio. Then one day I was looking thru the BMG catalog, and noticed this cool picture. Just below the picture I saw the words Sail Away. Instantly I was on the hunt. Could this be the song I had heard 5+ years ago? I found a .mid file of Sail Away, and sure enough! The rest of the CD is good, too, but much more sleepy.
