This is part of Universal Records "20th Century Masters: The Millenium Collection" series.
Yeah, Kingdom Come were a bit too enamored with Led Zeppelin on their first album, and their career didn't last much longer after that, but at the very least they were one of the very examples of what was storming the rock charts back in 1987-1988. Zep-styled riffs and that sorta watered-down boogie-guitar swagger were everywhere, and Kingdom Come were just one of the many bands getting loads and loads of criticism from purists. Oddly, though, the kids (for a short time) loved it, and the records sold enough to convince those at Polydor to release this collection of some of their more well-known tunes. Obviously, it's not a collection that's gonna be picked up for its artistic integrity ("Get It On" sounds like a half-baked "Kashmir"), but it's probably fair to say that Kingdom Come really wasn't too concerned with "art." This collection works because it's a fairly good snapshot of the kind of rock that very, very briefly made quite an impact in the late '80s. If acid-washed jeans and big hair were your thing, then this collection was tailor-made. ~ Chris True

80's favorite Classic's 80's music at it's best! Submitted by a reviewer (New Hampshire, USA)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Why not? What the hey, it ain't like Kingdom Come's albums are clogging the marketplace. The essentials from the first album are here, the choices from the second are a little strange (no "Perfect O?"), but "Do You Like It" is here. And it's cheap. If Zeppelin knew how to get it done in four minutes or less more of the time, they might sound like Kingdom Come. Submitted by Fizz (Delmarva) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No

20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection: The Best Of Kingdom Come CD music
$13.05 (MP3 Available for Download) To coincide with Bruce Dickinson's final tour with Iron Maiden, the band issued A REAL DEAD ONE, a follow-up to its classic 1985 live album, LIVE AFTER DEATH. Comprised entirely of material from 1986's SOMEWHERE IN TIME and releases thereafter, the live set contains renditions of many of Maiden's U.K. hit singles from the era. While some tracks are noticeably absent ("Infinite Dreams," "Wasted Years," etc.), many of Maiden's best tracks are included, such as "Be Quick or Be Dead," "Can I Play With Madness," "The Evil That Men Do," "Heaven Can Wait," and "The Clairvoyant." Although the band doesn't sound as inspired as it does on its earlier, classic live collection, several tracks here are played with a passion not found in the studio versions.
When the time came to conclude the Bruce ...

20th Century Masters: The Millennium Collection: The Best Of Kingdom Come CD music
$20.99 Helloween followed up their very popular self-titled mini-LP with 1986's even more accomplished Walls of Jericho, a disc that saw the quartet from Hamburg, Germany, outperforming expectations and quickly defining their sonic identity. The instrumental title track soon gives way to amazingly mature and complex compositions like "Ride the Sky," "Phantoms of Death," and the awesome "How Many Tears" (even more ambitious 13-minute epics would soon follow). And although these were heavily reliant on Iron Maiden for inspiration, it was Helloween's ...
