Customer Reviews
the best pub album ever? - yes!
picked this up for a couple of quid in Tesco's- 40 great tracks and a dvd quiz for less than the price of a single. Not the usual suspects either - some left field choices along with the bankers - make this an unusual collection. Think driving rock ballads meets any alt.rock compilation with a few punk anthems for good measure. Reminded me of the c90 tapes I used to compile many years ago for the car stereo. Roughly divided into rock side and alt. sides this compilation spans the decades and generations with enough to keep dad and the kids happy. My local used to have a juke box like this years ago - it was great! The dvd quiz isn't too bad either. Question - why do compilers make albums like this then straight away to the bargain bins by the shed load. This easily stands along side the better known "rock" compilations for quantity and quality with some nice suprises thrown in. The air guitarists will be out in force if this is put on at a party. All in all a great party compilation tape without the effort of making it yourself - I would have picked at least 50% of these tracks for a tape of my own. I bet you would too!
Great songs. Edited with a chainsaw
The previous reviewer could not understand why this compilation why such great value. I can probably enlighten him... They have cut some of the greatest songs on here right back. For instance, the mighty 'Purple Rain'- you just start getting into the song and the solo begins... and it gets faded out! (At about 4 minutes in). This is a cardinal sing and means this set is virtually worthless. Another noticable fade is the great Python Lee Jackson song, 'In a broken dream'. What were they thinking???
Not all songs are cut (i.e. the rule seems to be if it runs loger than 4 and a half minutes we'll cut it.)
Tragic - had great potential.
Where do I get my money back?
