Free Music Notes for PassionFree Music Review: A Desert Island No-Brainer Hit: 5 Stars
Selecting one's "desert island" albums can be a difficult chore, since it is inevitable that some great music would get excluded. The job is easy for this album, though, as it is simply one of the most accomplished works I've ever heard. I'm on my third copy of the CD, and it has stayed a favorite since I first heard it in high school in the early '90s. One would be hard pressed to find a better example of how to set a mood or establish atmosphere than what Peter Gabriel has produced here. It's a truly fine work that will stand the test of time, and it's easily one of the best albums ever recorded.
Free Music Review: a great work of art Hit: 5 Stars
I thought the original CD sounded great, but this has improved what I didn't even know needed improving - the sound quality is incredible and even more lifelike, which somehow makes this powerful music even more powerful. As great as Peter Gabriel's regular albums are, this is the one I'd chose if I had to pick just one. He has harnessed the talents of other great world musicians, and seamlessly blended east & west, the old & the new into something that is sui generis. If you listen to it all the way through in a quiet room it'll move you in many ways.
Free Music Review: Mesmerizing...feel it overcome you... Hit: 5 Stars
The first time I heard this soundtrack was in 1990 when I was only a teenager. I remember the exact time and place as it had a profound impact on me. I remember the darkness of the house and the eerieness The Passion impacted on it. To this day, I listen to this album with the same emotions, feeling as if Peter Gabriel's work, of unexplainable nature, was meant to bring us to a higher level. This is intensity at its optimal. Best listened to in moments of emotional and spiritual need, with the lights turned down and the mind wide open.
Free Music Review: Attention!!! Amazon Marketplace Sellers!: The Remastered 2002 version not the same as original 1989 Hit: 5 Stars
Not really reviewing the content of the album itself, but to hopefully to advise those who wish to sell this on Amazon Marketplace to make sure that what they are offering is the true 2002 remastered version. As you can see, the remastered version goes for over $20 used. What I have been sent both times is the, much cheaper, UNremastered original. The remastered version should have a copyright date of 2002. If your cd says 1989 or has rainbow stripes on the spine, you have the (ASIN: B000000OR5) 1989 version. Please, post it there!
Free Music Review: Everything Hit: 5 Stars
beautiful, haunting, captivating, energizing, soothing, visionary, lasting...A gorgeous landscape of sound and energy that bespeaks one who has truly reached beyond and taken a peek at infinity. Gabriel returns again and again with sounds from other universes, almost beyond human comprehension. I place this one in the ranks of Peter Murphy's Dust and Dead Can Dance's Into The Labyrinth: albums that take the human audio capacities to the outer limits of pleasure and enduring influence. A wonderful work in immeasurable ways.
