CD Reviews

Pretty Disappointed

Molly | Utah | 05/07/2007

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I got this CD set, mainly because of one song that I had been trying to remember for a very long time. When I finally found the song, and found it on this CD set along with other great songs from the 80's, I ordered the CD. When I started listening to the CD, I was pretty disappointed about the fact that the songs are not in their original (or popular) version. When I want to listen to an old song, it is because of the version that I know and came to love, and I want to hear that version. The songs were great, but the versions on this CD set are not that great."

DO NOT BUY THESE CD'S

"This is just another way the music labels screw you. I'm beyond disappointed with this collection. This is akin to buying the "best of" and having to buy another disk to get that one song you want that is deliberatley left off all other collections. And they wonder why cd sales are down. Who wants to listen to other obscure mixes and live performances. Of course, shame on me for not reading the other reviews. What can I say, I ordered it at 11 o'clock at night and just didn't think."

If you want original songs, don't buy this CD!

"I bought this CD hoping to receive original versions of several 80's songs that I like. I was disappointed when I started listening to the songs and discovered that nearly all of them were live versions of the songs that were recorded at concerts many years later. The tracks that aren't live are also not original versions of the songs. Most of the tracks are so different from the originals that they are nearly unrecognizable - mostly from the super-annoying crowd noise polluting the music. I did get a laugh from this CD though. The artist for Poison's "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" is listed as "Bret Michaels & Friends"! Apparently they couldn't use the name "Poison" since they couldn't get all the original band members together to do their low-budget re-recording.

Do yourself a favor - spend your money on a different CD."
