| | Best Of Morrissey CD Morrissey Discography of CDs
(3 Customer Reviews)
While there's more than one greatest hits collection from manic depression's pop bard Morrissey, this 2001 release is easily the definitive overview of the one-time Smiths frontman's solo career. Starting from late-1980s hits like the deceptively sunny "Everyday is Like Sunday," through the underrated '97 hit "Alma Matters," and including his modern rock number-ones "Tomorrow" and "The More You Ignore Me, The Closer I Get," there's nary an omission on this thorough collection (well, maybe "Picadilly Palare," but it's hard to please everyone).
'The Best of Morrissey' (Rhino/Warner Archives) is packed with 21 of his biggest U.S. & U.K. tracks. Features 2 rare tracks, 'Lost' & 'Tomorrow', a deluxe booklet which includes lyrics to each song & tons of rare pics. Moz fans note - produced with Morrissey's blessing.

Best Of Morrissey Music Review Average Rating: (4.7 out of 5 stars)   TITLE SAYS ALL ... ALTHOUGH ANOTHER MOZZ COMPILATION WAS RELEASED BACK IN '97, THIS ONE EASILY SURPASES IT AS MORRISSEY HIMSELF HAS CAREFULLY CHOOSEN EACH SINGLE SONG. RESULT IS VERY PLEASANT, WITH A MIXTURE OF SONGS WE ALL KNOW AND LOVE ("SUDEHEAD" ANYONE?) AND OTHERS ("NOW MY HEART IS FULL") THAT, ALTHOUGH FEATURED IN HIS PREVIOUS ALBUMS, PROVIDE A MORE COHESIVE LISTENING EXPERIENCE. BUY WITH CONFIDENCE FROM "CD UNIVERSE", AS BOTH PRICE & SERVICE ARE FINE !!! Submitted by antoni.martin (Barcelona, SPAIN)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Best music purchase! I was thrilled when I listened to this CD. I listen to it over and over again! I can't stop, this was a great buy! You won't regret your purchase. Submitted by Vanessa (Woodland Hills, CA.)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
every thing I expected minus one Very delightful mix of tracks.Truly his best ones included here.Was a bit disappointed not to see "seasick yet still docked" on this listing, but officially satisfying overall-definitely worth the price!

| | Fleetwood Mac CD (1975) Bonus Tracks; Remastered; Deluxe Edition
Best Of Morrissey songs
$12.05 With this album, years of personnel changes ended for Fleetwood Mac with the departure of guitarist Bob Welch. The remaining core of the group (Mick Fleetwood, John McVie and Christine McVie) invited guitarist/vocalist Lindsey Buckingham and singer Stevie Nicks to join, and thus began the most commercially successful period for Fleetwood Mac. With 3 strong songwriters in Nicks, Buckingham and Christine McVie, FLEETWOOD MAC was their first number-1 album.

| | Neilson Hubbard Sing Into Me CD (2003)
Best Of Morrissey CD music
$14.69 Neilson Hubbard has the voice of a fragile and broken singer/songwriter. Going down the road of people like Elliott Smith and, to a lesser extent, Soul Asylum, the singer starts by questioning the future in "Stars." It's a poignant opener that has lovely harmonies from Cathy Horne. It has a certain British pop flavor, courtesy of the Beatles-like vocals that soar as it concludes. "You'll Be There" is a gorgeous duet that suggests a young Michael Penn as a starting point. What works better, though, are his lyrics, since they could be directed at his lover or -- as is often the case -- a spiritual power. David Henry's cello is another welcome addition. "And in everything there will be glory," Hubbard sings, a perfect example of this possible ...
| | Angie Pepper Res Ipsa Loquitor CD (2003)
Best Of Morrissey music CDs
$12.85 Angie Pepper's brand of psychedelic blues-rock is not very different from Janis Joplin's 35 years earlier. They both rely on a charismatic voice and a tight backup band. The difference is that Pepper's voice is not as charismatic or impressive as Joplin's. But she still has what it takes to capture the attention of the listener for 35 minutes. On the other hand, her songs lack punch. Half of them were recorded with musicians of the ...
| | Lulu Back On Track CD (2004) (Import) United Kingdom
Best Of Morrissey songs
$11.79 BACK ON TRACK is a 2003, 12-track release featuring longstanding U.K. pop star, Lulu, and includes the tracks "Keep Talkin' I'm Listening" and "Sentimental Heart."
Can anyone really have expected much of a new album by Lulu in 2004? Forty years after she shot to stardom in England and 37 years after she did the same -- briefly -- in America, she would seem to be part of the fraternity of older English popsters who periodically step ...
