bought it for one song.......2006-09-04

This is okay. I liked "Shes just a fallen angel" when I was young. This is passable melodic metal by a band that never made it past being a regional act, despite getting some decent hype from the 1970's rock mags like Creem and Circus.

Starz-Highly underrated but never forgotten!!.......2005-08-14

This cd is excellent and for any starz fan you can always add another 10 songs to this anthology! But you have to remember that the record companies and possibly the band choose the tracks! I've seen and photographed Starz and loved the band live! They are one of my favorite all-time bands. But don't shun the Anthology cd because it doesn't have all your favorite songs. They had some great hits in the 70's and in my opinion some other songs that could have been hits! I'm fortunate enough to have some of my pictures on the bands web site and if you want check it out www.starzcentral.com . The anthology cd is still a great deal or buy all the studio albums that have been remastered and with bonus tracks from the requiem cd.
Either way enjoy the music!!!

Just some trivia for you.......2004-02-06

I'll let the other reviewers wax poetic about this cool 70s rawk band, but I wanted to add that the singer's brother, Rex Smith, had a minor-league TV hit at one time, and released an album under the band name "REX". It included a great song called "Ten Seconds of Love." If you're a Starz fan it might be worth trying to find a copy of this, as the band was very much in the same vein as Starz.

A poorly-chosen compilation.......2003-07-22

I get the feeling that whoever chose the songs for this album was not a Starz fan. To leave off "Last Night I Wrote a Letter," "Riot," and "Outfit" is ridiculous. Why not give us
Coliseum Rock on CD instead?

It's classic 70's I've worn out my vinyl version. Starz sometimes sounds like a garage band, but when they get it right, they really get it right ("So Young, So Bad.") Unfortunately, if you never heard Starz in their vinyl heyday, this is one of your few choices. I wish it could be different. Still, if you're looking for something that rocks, from a simpler, less-over-produced time, this is a good place to start.

First : all of their CDs SHOULD be available for sale at our local stores...come on record companies re-issue them.

Second: You can buy all of their albums except Brightest Starz from the groups Web Site:...

You can also buy several live albums and other STARZ "stuff".

Three: This is a very good album with a good sampling from their four releases. I agree ... that Violation is probably their best single album and 6 songs out of the 18 on this album or from Violation.

Highly recommended.

(Other groups to consider: Angel, Budgie, Montrose, and MOUNTAIN/Leslie West!!!)
