FOO Fighters Greatest Hits (Amazon Exclusive Version).Original Release Date: November 3, 2009.Nice job, Foos, NICE! Thanks for the great music and the video collection. Too bad the DVD didn't include your VH1 Rock Honors performance of The Who's "Young Man Blues." Outstanding performance! Wait, I'm whinin'... No, I'm not, because I rated this Five Stars! Maybe next video collection, eh?
The 99 Darkest Pieces Of Classical Music.Original Release Date: October 31, 2010.I love classical music because many pieces have sorrowness, darkness, and weirdness. Here, someone selected some 100 pieces. All of these pieces use minor keys. But, I am not sure these are the "darkest" pieces of classical music. But, well done. For example, selection of Penderecki indicates these folks know classic
The 99 Most Essential Spring Classics.Original Release Date: February 22, 2011.These "99 most" collections are obviously great values, with the drawbacks that the pieces are often extracts of larger works. But they always contain one or two complete works inside them.
One problem: when you buy the MP3 version and listen to them on the "Cloud Player" - the composer's name is nowhere to be found
The 99 Most Essential Opera Classics.Original Release Date: February 28, 2011.What is extremely pleasurable in this collection is listening to and discovering something you've known for years, but not knowing or remembering the actual opera or where the overture, aria, chorus, music, artist or composer is from.

Tron: Legacy Reconfigured.The Original End Titles track on the soundtrack was amazing, with its Vangelis inspired theme, is one that should only be carefully dealt with. In any other track that I have heard remix a Vangelis theme, it is common that the theme is allowed to stand on its own (the remixer will tear down everything else). Nothing is different here, and the added beats give it a drive
Dear Science (Deluxe Edition).As for the deluxe edition? There are actually sixteen tracks, with track twelve being exactly four minutes of silence. The four extra tracks are worth the extra cash. 'Make Love All Night Long' is a good song but not quite as good as the album tracks. 'Heroic Dose' clocks in at about seven minutes and has a spoken french vocal over electronics and horns - also pretty
Sigh No More.The album starts with the title track, Sigh No More. The song starts slow with sparse instrumentation, swelling into something you'd expect to hear at a full on hoedown (in London) and serves as a wonderful introduction to Marcus Mumford's voice; not pretty or soothing, but strong and with the ability to evoke powerful emotion.
This album flows really well, changing pace from roar
