Best of Both Worlds

Entertainment Weekly
Davina opts for an airy, minimalist approach, weaving her slender voice around a bass, drums, and occasional keyboard. . . .

People
Far from an exercise in show-off virtuosity, Best of Both Worlds is a collection of soulful and sensual mid-tempo love songs in the Sade vein, and they introduce a talent in full flower.

One shouldn't have too much difficulty imagining a two-disc Van Halen compilation entitled The Best of Both Worlds. The first disc will showcase the David Lee Roth-fronted version of the band that reenergized hard rock with its titanic 1978 debut and peaked commercially with 1984's, uh, 1984. Disc two will take up where David Lee was left off--from 1986 on, when Sammy Hagar (and, briefly, Hagar-sound-alike Gary Cherone) took over the mike. Well, unfortunately, that's not the anthology assembled this time out. Rather than sequence the selections chronologically and, in the process, display the band's evolution (or devolution, depending on where one stands in the great Roth/Hagar debate), the band has opted for a more eccentric sequencing strategy. After the opener "Eruption" confirms the sass and chops of the young VH, three fairly uninspired new tracks featuring a back-in-the-fold (for now?) Hagar interrupt the flow. Unfortunately, the flow never really recovers, as Roth and Hagar tracks leapfrog one another through the next 29 selections. Three live Hagar takes on songs from the Roth era finish things off in confusing fashion. Obviously, there's plenty of powerful music here, but do fans really need a lesson in what happens when worlds collide? And didn't David Lee earn at least one photo in the package? --Steven Stolder

Album Description

Van Halen rocketed to stardom with their raucous, 10X-platinum-plus 1978 self-titled album, one of the greatest debuts ever. Anchored by Eddie Van Halen's guitar wizardry and David Lee Roth's vocal showmanship, the band's dynamic sound reinvented hard rock. A run of multiplatinum Top 10 discs followed, peaking with 1984, another 10X-platinum blockbuster and Roth's swan song. Sammy Hagar replaced the vocalist, a transition that cost the band no momentum. The Red Rocker's VH debut, 1986's 5150 , hit #1 on The Billboard 200, as did 1988's OU812. The Grammy-winning 1991 release, For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge, reached #5. This new compilation spotlights Van Halen's always-stellar musicianship over the course of 25 years and two world-class frontmen, and continues the story with three brand new Hagar-fronted tracks!

Not the best in the world, but not the worst either........2007-07-21

Some key songs are missing.

So don't call this "The Essential V.an H.alen", b/c it is not.

I agree. Where is "Cabo Wabo", "Ice Cream Man", "Get Enough", "Summer Nights", "Pleasure Dome", "Judgement Day", "Somebody get me a Doctor", "In and Out", "Hang 'em High", and "Intruder"?!

It does have their stand out songs and their most popular songs from the David Lee Roth days and Sammy Hagar days, and also it has David Lee Roth's best V.H. song - "Hot for Teacher" and David's heaviest V.H. song - "Unchained", so at least that's something.

These CDs has a lot of good songs, but it is also missing a lot of good songs too.

Overall, I don't think too highly about David Lee Roth; the total goofball who has a fairly nice singing voice but a pathetic personality, and who thought that the band centered and revolved all around him, and who was way too goofy and too much of a clown, except for the "Fair Warning" CD which is the 1 and only time that David Lee Roth was ever serious about anything.

I don't really hate Roth in V.an H.alen b/c he did have a few very good songs with them, but his overall goofy and egoistical personality surely did not add anything to the band, and it turned some people away from them.

Yeah, Roth had a few really good songs with V.H. Yes, he did. Most of which are on these 2 CDs.

So, I will leave it at that.

Great Songs! But left a lot to be desired for the true Van Halen Fan.......2007-03-18

I can remember one day in late 1978, hearing Van Halen's (Eruption) and the entire first album scream out of the speakers of my buddies' borrowed record player in our 8th grade locker room during our half hour lunch break. I couldn't believe what I was actually hearing, but ever since that time I was hooked on Van Halen and I have every album they have ever put out. Yes, even the disappointing Van Halen III. Except for a couple songs, Van Halen III was very difficult to listen to, and I wonder what they were thinking when they got rid of Sammy after several great albums with the infamous "Red Rocker". Anyway, back to 1978 and the David Lee Roth era through 1984. They were the hottest rock band around. Unfortunately, I was unable to ever see them perform live with David Lee on vocals but since then, I have seen them a half-a-dozen times with Sammy and they all have been fantastic live shows. I also own both of their live concert videos and love to watch Eddie's solo guitar performances which, in my opinion, are second to none. Yes, there have been other great guitarists before Eddie: Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, Stevie Ray Vaughan, just to mention a few, but in my opinion, no one before, and no one since, has been as innovative, creative and just down right the "Best of the Best" as Eddie Van Halen on guitar. He will always be #1 in my book of top Rock guitar players of all-time.

Alas, back to the album at hand. I actually give this album 5 stars for quality of songs, because some of these songs are some of the best Rock-n-Roll songs of all time. But I give whoever put this record together a NEGATIVE 5 stars as for the order in which the songs were compiled and they left out at least another 5 to 10 songs that could have, and should have been included on "Best of Both Worlds". I have listed my ultimate Van Halen song collection below. Therefore, I have to rate this album as an average compilation of Van Halen Songs. First of all, I wish they would have put the songs in chronological order starting with Van Halen I continuing down through the years, and then saved the three newest songs with Sammy for last, (of which shouldn't be on the album in the first place, because they are definitely not the "Best" that Van Halen has to offer) But if they are going to be included in this disc set, they should have been the last three songs of the disc, so that when you got to end you could push stop, or eject if you didn't want to sit through them. This album never gets into a rhythm due to this non-chronological order of songs. Also, I would like to have seen a little more homage paid to David Lee Roth. Even if he is one of the fruitiest "Nuts" you'll ever see, you have to admit he was one heck of a Front man back in his prime, and sang some of Van Halen's greatest songs.

This is the song set that I would have compiled, had I been the producer on this "Best of Both Worlds" project.

Disc 1: (David Lee Roth) Eruption, Runnin' With The Devil, You Really Got Me, Ain't Talkin' Bout Love, Jamie's Crying, Feel Your Love Tonight, Little Dreamer, Ice Cream Man, Dance The Night Away, Beautiful Girls, And The Cradle Will Rock, Everybody Wants Some, In A Simple Rhyme, Mean Street, Unchained, Where Have All The Good Times Gone, Cathedral, Secrets, Pretty Woman, Dancing In The Street, Little Guitars (intro), Little Guitars, 1984, Jump, Panama, Drop Dead Legs, Hot For Teacher, I'll Wait.

Disc 2: (Sammy Hagar) Why Can't This Be Love, Dreams, Summer Nights, Best of Both Worlds, Love Walks In, 5150, When It's Love, Cabo Wabo, Feels So Good, Finish What Ya Started, Black And Blue, Poundcake, Runaround, Right Now, 316, Top of The World, Can't Stop Lovin' You, Don't Tell Me What Love Can Do, Amsterdam, Not Enough, Take Me Back (Deja Vu), Feelin'.

Van Halen will always be one of my favorite groups, if not my favorite rock-n-roll group of all time. It's too bad the Van Halen brothers can't put their egos aside, get over themselves and get back together with one of, if not both of, two of the greatest front men of all time. And don't forget Michael Anthony, maybe not the greatest bass man of all time, but he sure puts on an excellent live show and bass solo, and you have to love his Jack Daniels bass guitar, (it's a classic, just like Eddie's red, black and white striped guitar) plus he sings great harmony in his own right. And you can't leave out Alex Van Halen on drums. When you bring up Van Halen, everyone immediately talks about Eddie's unbelievable guitar playing, but Alex is one of the top ten drummers of all time as well. Just as Michael Anthony, Alex puts on an excellent live drum solo, it's just that he has been overshadowed by his brother's guitar playing...in any other band Alex would be the star.

Now wouldn't that be an awesome tour. The Van Halen brothers with Michael Anthony together with both David Lee Roth and Sammy Hagar doing all of their hits respectively in one live show. Now that would definitely be what you could call the "BEST OF BOTH WORLDS"!!!

POP HALEN.......2007-03-09

I cannot believe that I am the only one who gave this pile
of dump 1 star? All these rave reviews for this piece makes
you wonder,does anybody love hard rock anymore? Including
the band themselves. I am writing this review for the hope
that at least one person who reads this and does not know
the true essence of what made VH will find out. Please
whoever you are if your new to VH don't buy this,if you
really want the best of both worlds so to speak then I
recommend VAN HALEN,VAN HALEN 2,WOMAN AND CHILDREN FIRST
and FAIR WARNING,for Hagar I totally suggest the albums
MONTROSE,Sammy Hagar and STANDING HAMPTON. Although if you love broadway musicals and still
blowdry your hair then this is the heavymetal masterpiece
for you with such bone crushing classics like "JUMP" "RIGHT NOW"
and of course the very best for last "WHY CAN'T THIS BE LOVE"(c'mon
people shake your booty's clap your hands and repeat after me "It's
got what it takes") It boggles the mind to think people prefer 5150
over WOMAN AND CHILDREN FIRST??? C'mon everybody snap your fingers
"IT'S GOT WHAT IT TAKES"(P-EE-YUKE)

Good collection, decent packaging but cheasy liner notes, great mix up of songs, really the best of both worlds.......2007-02-07

I picked this collection about a year ago, and I played it again last night, and It really is a great collection. Best of Volume 1 was good, containing most of the radio hits, and the 2 new Diamond Dave songs, but this one gets their greatest radio hits and the radio staple songs such as poundcake, jamie's crying etc. It also features 2 new songs with Sammy as well, nice touch. Finally, it includes a couple of live songs from the sammy days as well of van halen classics, not bad, still not Dave on those songs. Sammy and Dave, I actually like both of the guys catalogs with the band, and in fact kinda prefer sammy. This collection covers them both though. I agree, the package notes were cheesy, mainly used to hype the new tour with sammy, and dave was not to find in the pictures. Finally, I think for completion sake they could have included a Gary Cherone song from van halen 3, at least "without you", But fans backlashed that album bad, so it's been swept under the rug for good. Oh well, this is the best one stop set for Van Halen songs, worth the money. It does lack "Ice Cream Man", I guess well have to wait for another collection to get that song included on it, I'll just have to get that album in the meantime.

complete best of.......2007-02-03

This greatest hits is better and more complete although the new hagar songs are not as good as the new david one on the other best of. Also of not I like the alternate ending on finsh what ya started better too. Awesome best of collection from an awesome band.

Chant to Travel.......2007-03-09

I first heard this CD when my friend Wendy brought it during a visit to Oregon. We chanted the whole way to the Bonneville Spa and Hotsprings. I liked it so much I borrowed it for a week and finally got my own. Ragani has the most lovely voice and the instrumentals are fulland luscious.
Thank you Ragani!

Best of Both Worlds truly is a fine blend of traditional Indian chants and modern recording .......2006-06-25

What immediately strikes me about this recording is Ragani's sincere devotion to her guru and to the divine. This is evidenced in the opening mantra, the Akhanda Prayer, a beautiful prayer to the Guru. Though I am not a musician, each chant on this CD seems to me to be well recorded and more importantly these chants are infused with Ragani's sincerity as a bhakta. I feel as though I am listening to a seasoned yogini when I listen to this fine collection of chants.
Especially appealing to me about these chants is the shift from a slow repetition of the Name to an accelerated and ecstatic repetition. The gradual acceleration has the effect of locking my mind's attention onto the mantra so that by the time the chant ends, my mind is subdued and I experience the peace brought about by the chant. In other words, when the chant is moving very quickly, there is less room for thoughts (other than the Name) to creep in. By the time the chant speeds up the Name takes hold and my mind begins to settle down. My particular favorites are Sita Ram and Shiva Hara. Whereas Sita Ram is intense, by contrast Shiva Hara is light and uplifting. In addition, the chants on this CD are all in call in response style which makes participation in the chants very easy.

Amazingly beautiful. Nice change of pace from other kirtan .......2005-02-01

I thought no other kirtan style music could even compare to Krishna Das (whom I love dearly), but Ragani's voice is so beautiful. This CD is enchanting so much so that I cannot seem to tire of listening.

GREAT CD!!!.......2005-01-10

Great CD!!! I play it everyday commute to work. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for Kirtan music.

Exquisitely Beautiful.......2004-11-28

This is one of the best New Age/Kirtan CDs of recent years. The final track, "Rama Rama" is one of the most achingly beautiful songs I've ever heard. It's as if you're listening to Sita, the legendary heroine of the epic Ramayana, actually calling for her husband Rama, who's half a world away. Ragani is one of the most inspired artists in the new genre of Western kirtan music. I play this CD often.

Despite the star power and the hyped-up title, this mano y mano between R&B heavyweight R. Kelly and rap master Jay-Z isn't what fans might have expected. In fact, this CD teeters dangerously close to being little more than a macho vanity project. One could assume that initial intentions were good. After all, R. and Jay's collabo "Fiesta" was a sleazy slice of playa-party fun, but this full-length project, for which the stars recorded their parts separately, is disjointed and somewhat dull. Instead of taking R&B and rap to new heights, Best of Both Worlds proves, once again, that (graphic) sex is the only thing on R. Kelly's mind and Jay-Z can probably rhyme in his sleep. There are tolerable moments, à la the title track, which features R. Kelly's trademark sweeping melodies and Jay-Z's deadpan wit, but even some good hooks and poignant observations can't excuse insultingly juvenile cuts like "Honey" and "P***y." The best of both worlds? Not even close. --Amy Linden

Kells was the premeir R & B dude of the 90's till 2002, while Jay was one of the best and most popular MCs of the last ten years. So it just makes sense that 2 of the best to ever do it would get together to drop a gem. Right? Nope. These 2 guys just dont mix. But it was worth a try.

The WORST of both worlds.......2006-03-25

Any record featuring child rapist R. Kelly and that gorilla-lipped fool Jay-Z gets the big one star in my book. Amazingly, they actually made a second album. Too bad the tour FLOPPED! Not feelin' it.

Made too fast.......2006-01-19

This album was made too fast and was sloppy. This is a low for Jay-Z, and I won't get into R. Kelly's legal situation back in '02 which caused no promotion for the album, even though Take You Home AKA Body was played on the radio.

Underrated.......2005-11-06

This album comes in for a lot of criticism from a lot of rap critics, but overall it has some real stand out tracks.
It opens explosively, with the title track, and promises a CD full of club anthems backed by Jay-Z's undeniable flow and R.Kelly's smooth vocals.
What follows is a collection of songs exclusively about sex and money (which the exception of 'The Streets'). Despite this, there are some ready-made club anthems amongst it, and some extremely good verses from Jay-Z.

Overall, deserved some of the criticism it recieved, mainly because of the shallow content of the songs, but essentially it's a good album, with some very good tracks and some of the best beats put out that year.

very average.......2005-08-08

I can't stand Jay Z at all.His by the Numbers Rapping is Boring to me.I was hyped to see another side to the Versatile Genius of R.Kelly but this Album never really gets going like that.the title Track is banging as are a couple other tracks,but beyond that it's more show than go. R.kelly already did the Best of Both worlds with Biggie.

Most pop stars are lucky if they can create one enduring piece of cultural iconography for themselves. Unfortunately for Robert Palmer, his MTV-forged persona as impeccably tailored `80s crooner backed by a band of leggy fashion models largely overshadowed a career that was as eclectic as it was accomplished. Those who know the singer only by his video for "Addicted to Love" arguably don't know Palmer at all. Indeed, during the previous decade his ostensibly blue-eyed soul sensibilities had actually encompassed funk, New Orleans R&B, reggae, rock, and pop both Euro ("Give Me an Inch") and synth Gary Numan's "I Dream of Wires"). But that creative restlessness also seems to be the reason his commercially promising stint in the all-star Power Station (represented here by "Some Like It Hot" and an infectious cover of T. Rex's "Bang A Gong") was so short-lived. And it's perhaps why, after "Simply Irresistible" and the surge of alternative rock essentially marked the end of his MTV prime, his `90s work variously retrenched Palmer in soul (including a rewarding medley of Marvin Gaye's "Mercy Mercy Me"/"I Want You"), torch songs, Caribbean influences, and even Delta blues. This collection ably completes the musical circle Palmer began in the mid `70s, astutely chronicling pop's ongoing battle between style and substance along the way. --Jerry McCulley

ADDICTED TO ROBERT PALMER ? HERE'S YOUR FIX !.......2007-04-10

If you've just got to have some Robert Palmer music, this is what you want, right here! A 2-CD career spanning collection with 42 songs, it has something for everyone. His early mid-seventies funky rock n' soul songs like Sailin' Shoes and Sneakin' Sally Through the Alley, which were AOR radio staples in their time, are here, as is the popular Give Me an Inch, down and dirty Spanish Moon, and big hit Bad Case of Lovin' You (Doctor, Doctor). Also on Disc 1 is Some Guys Have All the Luck, a hit for Rod Stewart. These days when Rod performs the song in concert, he pays tribute to Palmer by showing film clips of his late friend on the big screen over the stage. Disc 2 includes Power Station's Some Like It Hot, and his MTV mega hits Addicted To Love and Simply Irresistible. If you're not convinced Palmer can sing, take a listen to his cover of The Gap Band's Early In The Morning. Case closed. This disc also includes his excellant cover of Marvin Gaye's Mercy Mercy Me(The Ecology)/I Want You medley. Looking over the track list to this album, you may not recognize some of the titles, but listening to this anthology will trigger memories, and you'll soon realize how many of these songs dominated radio playlists from 1974-2001. Robert Palmer Best of Both Worlds: Anthology 1974-2001 will definitely satisfy your craving for the man and his music.

Discover the Many Shades of Robert Palmer.......2006-01-28

This is an excellent and diverse collection encompassing Palmer's entire career (with the exception of "Drive," the blues album he released just before his death in 2003). Those who know him only from his later hits may be surprised-as I admit I was-that Palmer had been recording for over a decade before Power Station, "Addicted to Love," and "Simply Irresistible." All those biggees are here, as well as early hits like "Every Kinda People" and "Bad Case of Lovin' You," but the best part for me was discovering lesser known gems like "Man Smart (Woman Smarter)," "Some Guys Have All the Luck" (bears almost no resemblance whatsoever to the Rod Stewart version), "Know By Now," and his fantastic covers of the Gap Band's "Early in the Morning" and Marvin Gaye's "Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology)." An underappreciated artist whose range of material was far broader than his American successes would suggest. For any fan of rock, pop, blues, R&B/soul, and even a little techno, this is absolutely worth buying.

almost.... missing something.......2006-01-07

Although this is a pretty impressive collection, it is lacking. Having 'Power Station' songs on here is a big, big plus. Although the new release of 'Power Station's' collection is very good, it is nice to have it on here because of Palmer's voice. Also, the track with UB40. Kudos to those tracks present here.
However, not being a big fan of live recordings (they always seem to be lacking also) I wish his hits, like 'riptide' & 'looking for clues' would have been the studio versions.
'You are in my system' & 'Addicted to Love' remixes are good, but the originals really should have been on here as well as the remixed versions.
But any of the tracks from 'Ridin High' or 'Don't Explain' could have been here too. It seems those two wonderful song collections have been ignored. 'Hard Head', 'Witchcraft', 'Aeorplane', 'Housework', 'Goody Goody','Light Years','Your Mother Should Have Told You','Dreams To Remember', 'You're My Thrill', 'Baby It's Cold Outside', and 'Don't Explain' are all fantastic recordings and deserve some recognition. The tracks that are representative of those two cd's are the commercially successful tracks. Maybe that's what an anthology is all about.... I would have thought it was to showcase the talent of the individual.
'Sweet Lies' is a nice suprise on here, as well as 'Spanish Moon', unexpected nicities. 'Wham Bam Boogie','Honey' and/or 'Love Takes Time' would have had a place here too... but alas, in the missing also.
I guess someone as enduring and versatile as Robert Palmer deserves more than just a flashy collection labeled 'Anthology'. One would think he deserves a 'Showcase' collection to show off his non-commercial talent as well as his commercial talent.
The packaging is very nice, I like the inner flip-disc holder method as opposed to others. The booklet and liner notes are very well done... but again missing something.
I would highly recommend including this cd in your collection IF, and only if, you already have 'Addictions' both volumes 1 & 2, 'Ridin High', 'Honey', and 'Don't Explain'. Then, indeed only then would you have a true representation of this fine entertainer that would span ALL of his career.

Some Like It Warm: a missed opportunity.......2005-07-22

There's a a lot of good to said for this collection. While there have been several in the past like "Addictions" Vol. 1 & 2 where he went back and remixed tracks or added new vocals, or "The Very Best Of" album, there had not been a good comprehensive collection of Palmer until this one. Perhaps that's why it's sold as a two disc set. All the hits are here. This includes a few remixed tracks from "Addictions" which may annoy purests, although I think his updated versions of "You Are In My System" is improved over the original. You can understand why he felt he could give a better performance. The new versions of "Give Me An Inch" is beautiful and soulful, and "Every Kinda People" has moving, sweet colors of Marvin Gaye. It includes Power Station tracks and soundtrack songs ("Sweet Lies"). Also the album's 24 bit remastering is top-notch. Everything here is crisp and balanced with very little analog hiss from the originals.

"Anthology" goes from "Sneaking Sally" all the way through the "R & B" albums covering three labels, so you have to tip your hat to Island Records for putting it all together. Yet the collection has some strange quirks. For example, they use the single version of "Get It On (Bang A Gong)", yet they have the album version of "Some Like It Hot". The album ends with a wimper with awful live versions of "Johhny & Mary" and "Looking For Clues" from "Live From The Apollo". His performance was weak and the recording quality is flat and thin. Just a waste where there should have had the originals. Just because it's an anthology does mean every album has to represented especially when the Apollo album is so bad.Some tracks are just lame like "Want You More". On the other hand, it would be a shame to just have "The Very Best Of" album becuase there's so much good stuff that's not on that one that is on "Anthology" like "Man Smart, Woman Smarter", "Pride", "Some Guys Have All The Luck", and more. It's a quality anthology but also misses its potential.

A great Robert Palmer anthology!.......2004-11-17

I very much enjoyed this anthology, I've liked Robert Palmer, for a long time. All great songs are on here and if I were to have one complaint about this compilation, it would be that one of his 80's songs wasn't included - I don't even know the name of it, but I would recognize it if I heard it. I was sorry to not see it on there, but oh well.Anyway, I would recommend this anthology to any pop/rock fan and pop/rock that is soul-flovored. Also a must if you like Robert Palmer!

Awesome score.......2004-08-11

They should've gotten Ron Jones to do First Contact instead of Goldsmith. This is the kind of score you need for an epic battle with the Borg. Wonderful action sequences with stirring strings and threatening brass. And the Borg theme is just marvelous. Ron Jones or Dennis McCarthy or even Jay Chattaway should do all future Star Trek motion picture scores.

Makin' The Best of Star Treký Even Better!.......2002-06-22

I consider the two-parter The Best Of Both Worlds© to be Star Trek™'s most pivotal & influential episodes, and the soundtrack does a beautiful job in adding to the feel and suspense. Although Ron Jones' compositions on this CD aren't quite as ambitious as the tunes one would hear in the Star Trek™ movies, his efforts did help make these two watermark NextGen episodes seem truly grand and larger than life. The military style of some of the tunes also gives a warlike tone to the show, as the Enterprise™ and the Federation™ fight desperately to stop the Borg™ invasion.

Each track complements the scene it plays in almost perfectly. One good example is Hansen's Message©, which plays through the end of the scene in Part One when the crew sees the Borg™ ship for the first time. The moment itself is chilling, but with the music, along with the crescendo at the climax, it becomes even more suspenseful! Another great tune to complement the moment is Intervention©, heard in Part Two when Worf™ and Data™ sneak into the Borg™ ship to rescue Picard™ (now changed into the Borg™ Locutus™) and get him back to the Enterprise.

Thanks to the synergy between the music and the scenes, The Best of Both Worlds© becomes a whole lot more than the sum of its visual & musical parts!

A MUST HAVE!!!!!!!!!!!.......2002-03-16

I LOVE it it is so very relaxing to listen to on occations when you need a dose of Star Trek.

A Great Score For A Television Show.......2001-04-22

Without comparing this TV score to that of a film, I would consider this an excellent TV score. Hearing the Alexander Courage's version of Jerry Goldsmith's Star Trek theme really opens the album up. It is really a shame that it appears only once or twice in minor situations because then it would mean this score has some trace of thematic development like film scores do. The Borg theme, played by a synthesized chorus, sounds very mysterious yet somewhat hostile and threatening. You have to have seen the show to know what's happening because there's barely any thematic music to base what's happening on. The strings and celeste playing on the tracks before the borg encounter adds the sense of mysterious but foreshadowed danger. The battle tracks between the borg and Enterprise aren't upbeat like scores from John Williams or Horner but sound much more suspenseful and average-paced like on Crimson Tide. Ron Jones seems to back off on fast-paced string and brass parts and prefers edgy brass and percussion coupled with electronics. Away Team Ready is a haunting, military-like cue as some people prepare to board the borg ship. An unused cue for the exploration of the borg ship sounds very far and dissonant like on The Empire Strikes Back, Return Of The Jedi, and Aliens. Both are very original sounding. Let me admit that the music on the second and final fight between the Enterprise and Borg ship heats up but leaves more to be desired. Of course, this is a TV score scored under a period of a week so forget what I just said for any film score fan. After a bittersweet ending stopping with an afterthought, the brilliant Star Theme comes up for the credits and draws this score to a close. I recommend this original score for anyone who has seen the borg episode of TNG but don't expect a Star Wars score here for any film score collectors.

Stirring score for an epic tale.......2001-01-29

Fans of the syndicated television show "Star Trek: The Next Generation" may remember the two-part episode "The Best of Both Worlds" as a high point for the series, and for science fiction television in general. This cliffhanger and its resolution constituted the third season finale and fourth season premiere. In the story, the United Federation of Planets faces an invasion by the Borg, a seemingly unstoppable cybernetic race that "assimilates" whole civilizations into its insect-like "collective." Captain Picard and the crew of the Starship Enterprise represent the Federation's only hope against this relentless enemy.

Such an epic tale calls for an epic musical score, and composer Ron Jones delivers. His music pounds with excitement during the thrilling space battle sequences. He makes brilliant use of eerie musical effects to capture the alien nature of the Borg Collective and its dispassionate "drones." He also brings out all of the emotion of the heroic struggle of the Enterprise crew to save the Federation from conquest and assimilation. But it's not all big, bombastic space opera music; Jones also pays attention to more intimate moments between the crew.

Yes, "The Best of Both Worlds" was a landmark in the ongoing, multigenerational "Star Trek" saga, and Ron Jones' superb score is an integral part of the story. This is an essential disc for fans of science fiction soundtracks.

STOP SLEEPIN'.......2006-09-19

This is definitely a cd that you would love to have in your collection. I had to replace it because it was destroyed in New Orleans. I looked for it in all the music stores. I had to have it again. Wonderful music. By the way, where is Davina? She needs to drop another one.

One CD That Many Slept On Or Missed Out On...... .......2006-09-01

If you enjoy Neo-Soul this is one CD you need to add to your collection.... Davina(best of both worlds)is a CD many slept on.. The music is really mellow & it's a CD that you can just sit back and chill to...

Still Waiting for the follow-up!.......2006-02-16

Like others reviewers before me said cope this cd "Best of Both Worlds"-Davina one of the most slept-on cd's ever. Just wanted to get my 2cts of soul In.

The Miseducation of Davina.......2005-12-03

Where is Davina? Do you do shows? If so, where? We need more of this. It's almost 2006... Please don't just hit us with a classic and bounce like Lauryn Hill. You're way too talented to be on such a hiatus. If anybody has any information on Ms. Davina, please enlighten me. And if you haven't heard this set, you're missing out on a beautiful musical journey. Worth every penny...

I agree -- this is outstanding.......2005-07-06

I just pulled this out of my collection after several years, and it's HOT. I'll be grooving to it all over again. If you're into R&B/Soul, a la Eryka Badu, give this a try.

Does Anyone Remember Davina?.......2005-07-06

I certainly do, I had the pleasure hearing her brilliantly perform in 2000. I though after hearing her, she has such an insightful vision to be so young. Its a shame she didn't continue to create more heartfelt music. Her style has the resemblence of Jill Scott, Casandra Wilson, Sade, with a definite R&B hook. But this lady unmistakeably holds her own with undeniable style and self-expression, she sings with such sensuality and cool she captures your undivided attention and awe. She definitely sings from the heart and soul. The title track certainly reminds you that you have "Come Over to My Place." If you sing it for "Only One Reason" your fans will be "Comin' for You." Show your love so you can once again say "Give Me Love." This a magnificently awesome CD by Davina. Keeping it real and a great job doing it.

Out of sight CD.......1999-08-26

Great CD by a very musically talented lad

The bomb cd!!!!!.......1999-08-25

I truly support a sister who's out there to make it on her own and Davina has done a wonderful job on her debut. She has the flow comparable to artists such as Les Nubians, Grenique, and Adriana Evans. I suggest you pick up all of these if you're a true mellow and jazzy, but not the typical R&B fan. I am a little upset that she has not received proper recognition for her talent. Maxwell didn't blow up until a year after he dropped his first cd and it was ALL of that. All in all, Davina is a "must" for the cd collection.

This album is a classic! Must have.......1999-08-20

Davina is one of the best albums of this decade!! It is good to see artist with real talent and not just fancy clothes and cars but no voice (ie Total,Missy Elliott) This is real music all written and arranged by Davina. Oh I forgot, and she kept her publishing rights too! Smart, Very Smart

she is bueatifull in all that she sings & writes about.......1998-10-08

as a r&b/jazz lover, i only listen to an artist that has something serious to say, and davina is trully a sister of truth and dignity,her new material is outstanding,and by the the photo of her on the cd so is she. best of both worlds is the best cd by a black female singer that i"ve heard since chaka khan frist released her song SWEET THING" but don't believe me check it out for yourself, hey davina,call me i would love to meet you, i am a r&b jazz artist/writer with my own record label (jaff record labels) 10/7/98
