Free Music Notes for Michael Jackson - Vol. 1-Greatest Hits History
Free Music Review: Would get 5 Stars if HIStory Double-Disc set wasnt released!
Hit: 3 Stars
This is a classic selection of songs, but HIStory has been released with another disc, really who would spend their money on this one when at the same price you can get another disc and a massive slip case!. This CD is great though, containing alot of great MJ classics before 1995. But if you really wanted all of Mj's Hit singles buy all of his albums, because there are ALOT more hit singles that havent appeared on any greatest hits collections, MJ is one of the greatest artists of all time and this CD proves it, but it should not have been released with the HIStory double-disc set released a while before.Free Music Review: Jackson at his very best
Hit: 5 Stars
I think that this album sums up what Michael Jackson is and what he has done for the music industry. This is a brilliant album. He is simply superb!!Free Music Review: Basically an unnescessary release, but of course superb.
Hit: 5 Stars
Basically, I simply can't see the need of this re-release of the first disc of the HIStory set - HIStory was certainly a release no-one should miss, and even if the second disc contained several missers or mediocre songs ('Smile', 'Chieldhood', 'Come Together', 'This Time Around', '2Bad') it did contain a fair share of classics proving that Michael has - or had at that time, Invincible might certainly question this - not lost his touch as the King Of Pop - take songs like 'Scream', 'They Don't Care About Us', 'Stranger In Moscow', 'Earth Song' and 'You Are Not Alone'.Instead, I think Michael should have waited a couple of years and grapped the opportunity to release a double CD with ALL his greatest hits - because there are SO many fantastic songs NOT included here - let me mention: 'Off The Wall', 'Workin' Day And Night', 'Human Nature', 'Say Say Say', 'Liberian Girl', 'Dirty Diana', 'Smooth Criminal', 'Leave Me Alone', 'Jam', 'In The Closet', 'Who Is It', 'Give In To Me', 'Will You Be There', 'Dangerous', the above mentioned HIStory songs, and from his recent Invincible release 'Cry' and 'Speechless'.
All of these songs are masterpieces, and many of them MUCH better than some of material included on this CD, even if all these songs are excellent.
I've seen listed - with no details - a forthcoming Cd and DVD combi-release titteled #1's - let's see what this brings, but probably not a complete collection of Michael's best works, unfortunately.
Free Music Review: Only a partial look at HIStory
Hit: 4 Stars
Greatest Hits-HIStory (which is basically disc one of his HIStory album) is a total hit & miss.Of course the greats are represented(Billie Jean,Beat It,Don't Stop..,Rock With You,etc)but what was unnessesarily included(The Girl Is Mine,Heal The World) outweighs what should've been included(Human Nature,Off The Wall,Dirty Diana,Say,Say,Say,Will You Be There).Maybe the best of "HIStory continues"(Scream You Are Not Alone,Earth Song,Stranger In Moscow) should've been interspread with the old hits.It may not be HIStory but it would've justified his place in history
Free Music Review: Go Micheal! Go Micheal!
Hit: 5 Stars
This a great cd! but it really could have better and it's just like getting half of the hsitory cd because the History album is all these songs on this album on one cd and then another cd with all new material from 1994 - 1995! but still if you just want his old songs from 1979- 1991 please be my guest! But his best albums in my opion are 1.Bad
2.Dangerous and also Thriller (there bloth too good!)
so be happy!
