Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Simply put, Michael Hanna is the George Winston of a new generation.

Although Michael's career as a composer and arranger dates back to late 1992, he is first and foremost a storyteller.

"I have always been captivated by the art of storytelling. It's a gift, really; the ability to reach someone else's soul with the human elements of a great story. But a story doesn't have to be told with words. A timeless tale, told with half notes and rests, can be as powerful and transcendent as any told with nouns and adjectives. In my opinion, the best musicians are the best storytellers."

Michael is truly a musical storyteller, his music filled with nostalgia, passion, sorrow, and joy. In the chords and cadences of Michael's music, you will find the mystery of Tolkien, the eloquence of Hemingway, the doubt of Camus, the struggle of Poe, the poetry of Thomas, and the charm of Fitzgerald. Savor these moving and passionate melodies as words to stories of love and loss.

Stop and listen awhile.

5 out of 5 stars All of the best diverse music from the 1980s........1998-11-27

Plastic Bertrand is a group that is very hard to find in the United States, even with a song played on the radio such as, "Ca Plane Por Moi." "Nowhere Girl," by B-Movie rocks also! There is just an amazing selection of fabulous flashback music. This is definately a need for all of those other 80s music buffs like me.

4 out of 5 stars Underrated singer-songwriter still doesn't get his just desserts.......2006-11-27

Al Stewart is the type of artist who gets overlooked quite often. Even at the peak of his popularity in the late '70s, he was anything but the typical rock/pop star. His voice is somewhat thin and nasal, his elocution just a bit too proper.... but when you look past these seeming flaws, you realize he's amazingly gifted as a guitarist, songwriter, and bandleader. In the '60s and '70s, it seemed as if everyone were trying to pawn themselves off as mini-opera auteurs in the prog-rock arena, especially after the success of the Who's "Tommy" and various other works by Yes, the Moody Blues, and Genesis, among others. Precious few produced epics as engaging and beautiful as those made by Stewart (the live medley of Nostradamus and The World Goes to Riyadh on Disc One attests to this). At the same time though, Stewart could dazzle with compact snapshots both poignant and catchy ("Brooklyn," "Almost Lucy," "Flying Sorcery"). He knew his way around a pop hook and he'd hit you with a killer cross when you least expected it.

That brings me to this import box set, which is virutally impossible to find anywhere outside Amazon and a few select retail outlets specializing in imports. As an intro sampler to Stewart's body of work, it's good... but at five discs it should be much more. I would be content to say that whomever compiled this set didn't know much about Stewart and his work, because efforts that are widely regarded as some of his best --- like 1984's "Russians and Americans," which is so highly sought after today that it fetchs almost $90 on the used market --- are woefully under-represented. So it would then be safe to assume the compiler merely took all Al's singles and key FM album tracks to press.....but that's not it either. Key singles like "Midnight Rocks," "Paint By Numbers," and "Lori, Don't Go Right Now" are omitted while his albums from the last decade fill one disc and another is wasted on tracks from a concert. AND, most of the discs are only over an hour...... This is just wrong!

This box set is obviously aimed at Al's fans, so why not give them what they want, or hand the reigns over to someone who at least understands what that entails? Five stars for the music...2 stars for the compilation. I'll settle on a four.

4 out of 5 stars missing key singles.......2006-06-17

Overall this is a wonderful overview of one of the greatest singer/songwriters of our times. Unfortunately, neither "Song On The Radio" nor "Upon The Midnight Rocks" are to be found among the studio tracks found on discs 1-4. The playing time on the set is short enough that these two wonderful tracks could easily have been fit in. Other than that, the sound quality of the sound is immaculate, including the live 5th disc. The set is very pricey, but if you obtain it from one of the drop shippers you can get it for a reasonable price. I found it necessary to buy a copy of Al's "Greatest Hits" on Rhino just to have the above mentioned missing singles. Kind of a bummer, but the set is still very representative of Stewart's entire career and the 70 page booklet is chock full of info, photos, and quotes from the artist himself. I'd love to give this set 5 stars but the missing singles and necessity of purchasing another disc just to obtain them forces me to give the set only 4 stars. All considered the box is a great overview of Stewart's 40 year career and should find a home with anyone who is truly a fan of his work. For novices, the Rhino single disc "Greatest Hits" is probably a better and far cheaper choice.
