Music made for this medium! Sound quality is excellent. using 5.1 dolby digital. Only complaint is the song selection. For the first DVD audio, they should have included some of the more popular MS selections. Submitted by a reviewer (Canton MI) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo 1 of 1 found this helpful.
Not That Much Different than the standard CD I am Steamroller fan and already have this CD. So when I found it was made into a DVA, I quickly ordered it. It comes with two disks, a standard CD and another with both DVD audio on the other (reversible). That's the good news. If yo udon't already have this CD, it is a must. The bad news is, taht the DVD version is not that much enhanced from the standard. So, if yo already have this one ... stick to it. Submitted by mreiss (Lake Mary, FL) Was This Review Helpful? YesNo

Commemorating the 25th anniversary of Elvis Presley's death, 30 #1 HITS presents a career-spanning serving of the King's chart-toppers.
Dating back to "Heartbreak Hotel" (which was inspired by a suicide note printed in the Miami Herald), most of these cuts have become indelibly etched into the fabric of pop culture and each has a unique story behind it. "Love Me Tender" has its origins in the Civil War ballad "Aura Lee," "It's Now Or Never" found Elvis Americanizing the Neapolitan ballad "O Sole Mio," and "Wooden Heart" likewise was converted from a German children's song.
This Memphis native's choice of artists to cover was equally intriguing and includes Hollywood legend Al Jolson ("Are You Lonesome Tonight?"), New Orleans soul shouter Smiley Lewis ("One Night"), blues great Big Mama Thornton ("Hound Dog"), and country titan Hank Snow ("[Now And Then There's] A Fool Such As I"). Further testimony of Presley's long-lasting appeal is the inclusion of the JXL Radio Edit Remix of "A Little Less Conversation," a UK #1 that not only enabled Elvis to have more chart-toppers than The Beatles, but also became a hit in a number of other countries including the United States.

The definitive rock opera, TOMMY liberated the Who from a "singles band" stigma, marking them as a substantial artistic force. Composer Pete Townshend had flirted with the conceptual format on two previous releases, but here his vision is spread over two ambitious records that play to the Who's main strengths. Anthems such as the raucous "Pinball Wizard" and the surprisingly serene "I'm Free" emphasize the kinetic power of the band, while Townshend's cast of characters (the perverted Uncle Ernie, the inscrutable Tommy) reveals a wild and unconventional imagination. Townshend even incorporates Sonny Boy Williamson's "Eyesight to the Blind" as part of his fable about the "deaf, dumb, and blind kid," making a successful reference to the past in what is an undeniably groundbreaking and forward-looking achievement.

$18.39 With TURN OF A FRIENDLY CARD, Alan Parsons has furthered his bid for mainstream success by combining his lush, synthesized art rock with memorable melodies. In fact, two of the album's songs--the infectious, pulsing "Games People Play" and the dreamily drifting "Time"-- became durable radio singles. Like all of Parsons's efforts, however, this album is far more than just a collection of singles.

$9.69 American pianist Jim Brickman is known more for his behind-the-scenes compositions than his performances. Having written jingles for the Gap and Kelloggs, Brickman has probably had most Americans whistling his tunes without knowing that he wrote them. On this release, though, Brickman goes in front of the camera for some fabulous pop piano playing. Along with special guests like Olivia Newton-John and Donny Osmond, Brickman performs a lovely set of his gently ...

Fireside is a Swedish band whose sound is comparable to rougher-edged alternative rock (Fugazi, Rollins Band), yet they also have an experimental side, where they engage in long, moody instrumentals (Mogwai, Tortoise). UOMINI D'ONORE has some of both, conveyed with a wiry energy akin to fellow Swedes the Hives.
Recorded between April & June 1997.

Hardcore punk band Refused opened up and expanded their sound for THE SHAPE OF PUNK TO COME (a take-off on the title of the classic avant-jazz disc by Ornette Coleman, THE SHAPE OF JAZZ TO COME). They've become more sophisticated in their presentation, but still maintain their crunching, take-no-prisoners musical ethic--when they let the guitars kick in, they still manage to deliver a brutal, politically inspired racket.
