4 out of 5 stars Certainly the best of Vanessa-Mae.......2007-06-04

I have heard of Vanessa-mae for several years, but it was not until recently that I became interested in her work after stumbling on some of her MTVs on youtube. After viewing "Destiny," "Contradanza," and "Devil's Trill" I found her music intriguing enough to try out her other works. After sampling several of Vanessa-Mae's CDs, I will have to say this is literally her best CD so far.

I enjoyed listening to the great majority of the compositions on this CD. Most of the tracks are up-beat, pop like, although with a stronger classical bend than Bond/Yanni. Nevertheless, several of the tracks are simply classical in nature. Therefore, this combination showcases the range of Vanessa-Mae's work very well. I am highly anticipating her next work, as I am interested to know how she is developing her violin skills - some of the compositions on this CD, although still refreshing, are around a decade old...!

But if this is your first introduction to Vanessa-Mae, this is the CD you should get.

4 out of 5 stars If you like a classic music MUST have this CD.......2007-05-31

my review is short, because this CD is so good and i enjoy listening to it almost every day. By the way if you looking for a CD that your child would enjoy, this is one of those CD's

5 out of 5 stars VERY GOOD START TO MORODER MUSIC.......2005-12-20

I first heard "From Here To Eternity" on TV on the cable station A & E which was airing a show about disco back in 1993 and REALLY loved the song. There apparently is also a video to accompany this song. Too bad I never got to hear this song when it was out back around 1978. I did hear "Chase" played a few times on the radio back in late '78 ,early 1979 & they even used it during 1979's superbowl or else on one of the games leading up to it. It wasn't until over 5 years later when someone told me who the artist was that made "Chase."
I think this is a good cd and I even like "Looky Looky" which sounds like a 1960s folk music song. Some of the 1980s songs lost the strange, mesmerizing sound of Giorgio and I don't like E=MC2 at all because it sounds dated and too simple of a song even for 1979. A few songs on the album From Here To Eternity are basically good songs but slightly ruined by sounds that belonged on cartoons and are annoying. The backup female singers are really good on Giorgio's songs.

Too bad most people didn't get to hear this music even though they were teens and young adults during Giorgio's most successful days. Even back then, radio programmers were deciding what was/wasn't cool for people to hear and people lose out on hearing cool music big time because of this. I think Giorgio went for the money by working in Hollywood after Flashdance and by working with Blondie. Unfortunately Hollywood is where the money seems to be and there isn't enough money involved in making music so the end result is there is no good music to be heard unless you spend hours looking for it on the internet.

Too much electronic & new wave music got dismissed as not being "real" but it sounded good and that's the bottom line not whether someone uses a "real" guitar or bass or drums who makes music that sounds like crap.

Again most of us didn't get to hear Giorgio on the radio because programmers decided Pink Floyd & the Eagles were what young men needed to hear back then-no thanks.

3 out of 5 stars Where is it...UH???.......2005-07-25

This album is missing one of his best song, but not the most popular unfortunately and so rare and hard to find on single 45, the title is LET THE MUSIC PLAY... what a shame it's not here :-(

Oh well

5 out of 5 stars PURE MAGIC!.......2005-03-26

This album is the "Revolver" of my generation.
It doesn't get much better than listening to "Solitary Man" play on your stereo while sharing a cosmopolitan with a loved one.

1 out of 5 stars This Is A Joke.......2003-12-31

This is the worst "Best Of...." compliation ever issued on CD. This man has so many hits that it's impossible to put them all on a Best Of compilation without having several volumns. This Cd has very few of his best!!! Don't bother!!!

4 out of 5 stars SYNTHPOP AND ELECTRODISCO.......2003-05-20

This fascinating collection starts with Giorgio's synthpop hits from the late 1960s and early 1970s, of which Looky Looky and Son Of My Father reached the highest chart positions in Europe and the UK. I Wanna Funk With You Tonight dates from 1977 and was released under the name The Munich Machine; Knights In White Satin comes from the same album. From Here To Eternity is a brilliant hypnotic electrodisco track from his 1978 album of the same name, while E=MC2 comes from the follow-up album. Together In Electric dreams appears on the soundtrack of a popular movie from about 1984, but tracks like Reach Out an To Be Number One were unfamiliar to me. Of course, if Giorgio Moroder had to compile all the great hits he produced for artists as diverse as Donna Summer, Blondie and Sigue Sigue Sputnik, it would take a box set to accommodate them all. This album gives a good overview of the solo outings of this synth pioneer though. Recommended to all fans of Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, The Pet Shop Boys and Gary Numan.
