Customer Reviews
Attractive compilation but flawed.
Wonderful compilation on a double disc album of their greatest hits, BUT..
Having compared with earlier 20 Golden Greats compilation, EMI certainly screwed up on Disc 1. Did some random track comparison and found disappointing flaws.
Track 1: Apache: Over bloomed with less definition.
Track 15: Foot Tapper: Sounds in mono whereas its wide stereo in the earlier compilation album.
Track 19: Theme for Young lovers. Glitch at the start with double note and channels are switched.
Disc 1 is certainly flawed. The guys at EMI should have paid more attention to the quality.
Am disappointed with this compilation. EMI should recall and replace this double disc set.
All the Favourites on one CD!
This CD contains some of the best instrumental rock of its decade. 50 of the best tracks from The Shadows and all on one CD.If you are a Shadows Fan or you just like the sound of the guitar then this is an ultimate buy.This CD is Shadows at their best with all the favourites like Apache.Top Album Which Deserves the five star treatment.
Stratocaster Heaven
Forget the cover versions at the end of disc 2.The Shadows hits that fill the other disc and a half are the sounds that inspired a generation of guitar freaks.Worth buying for Wonderful Land alone,which is presented here in the original,undubbed, version before Norrie Paramor added the strings which grace the 45 rpm release.
