| | Countdown Best Of Disco CD Countdown Discography of CDs
Best of Disco may indeed feature some of the best songs from the disco era such as "Le Freak" and "I Love the Nightlife" -- no one will argue with that. But similarly, no one will argue with the fact that these are quite frankly horrendous cover versions of those classics. As you may have guessed, yes, the Countdown Singers have again taken a stab at recreating classic late 20th century pop music, and, yes, they aren't quite up to par when it comes to quality. As always, you can give them kudos if you so please for even attempting to mimic Donna Summer's orgasmic convulsions in "Love to Love You Baby"; it's a daunting task for sure. Unfortunately, you certainly can't give them much credit for the outcome. Even the most casual disco fans won't be able to prevent themselves from cringing at each passing song. Not everyone can sing "Stayin' Alive" like the Bee Gees, and the Countdown Singers prove this all too well here. No matter how alluring the track listing, don't even bother with this album unless you're looking for a good laugh -- that's about the only thing of worth you'll get from this album. ~ Jason Birchmeier Best Of Disco Review

Best Of Disco
$18.94  
Functioning as something of a replacement for the 2001 collection Their Greatest Hits: The Record, The Ultimate Bee Gees covers much of the same ground as that double-disc set, albeit in not quite so linear a fashion. The Record marched through its 40 tracks chronologically, opening with the stately baroque Beatlesque pop of the '60s and then winding through the '70s, whereas this opens with the bright, fabulous blast of "You Should Be Dancing" and remains in their late-'70s heyday for a ...
| | Eminem Relapse CD (2009)
Best Of Disco
$10.85
Lyrical acrobat Slim Shady returns after a five-year absence with his fifth major label release, continuing to strike the perfect balance between brooding insight and absolute silliness on 2009's RELAPSE. Opening single "Crack a Bottle" reunites Detroit's maddest rapper with his superstar mentor (Dr. Dre) and protege (50 Cent) on a fittingly funky tour de force.
Eminem's RELAPSE, a double album released after five years of recorded silence, a record featuring Dr. Dre behind the boards for the first time since 2000, faced no shortage of the relentless pressure of expectations. A narrative of survival after facing down his demons in rehab unfurled with Eminem's usual twisted Swift-ian wit, RELAPSE should disappoint few fans (or critics for that matter) with its patented mix of hilariously spit ...
| | Kirk Franklin Christmas CD (1995)
Best Of Disco
$8.75
In addition to energized versions of such treasured Christmas songs as "Go Tell It on the Mountain" and "Silent Night," Franklin & the Family contribute several non-traditional songs that explore the depth of God's love and the Christian basis for the holiday. "Now Behold the Lamb," for example, is a ballad that testifies to the truth of salvation, and features stirring ensemble singing, strong solo vocalists, and plenty of enthusiastic exclamations. The deeply funky "Jesus Is the Reason for the Season" kicks things up a notch with its bumping rhythm and infectious chorus. With its mix of old and new musical styles and its impassioned performances, CHRISTMAS is sure to please those looking for a meaningful and musically fresh holiday album.
