Although Peter Gabriel received the greatest-hits treatment with 1990's SHAKING THE TREE, the 13 years following that collection made it clear that another, more comprehensive retrospective was needed. During this time, Gabriel recorded only two official solo albums, US and UP, but the avant-pop icon also pursued other audio/visual projects, such as OVO, his contribution to London's massive Millennium Dome exhibit. The two-disc compilation HIT pairs his post-2000 work with his pioneering songs from 1977-1992, and the result is a remarkable musical document.

While HIT features the majority of the classic songs from SHAKING THE TREE, it also includes two essential tracks excluded from that earlier compilation, "The Rhythm of the Heat," a slow-burning exercise in tribal beats, and "In Your Eyes," the gorgeous ballad made famous by the film SAY ANYTHING. Moving on to latter-day Gabriel, HIT offers up the wonderfully grimy stomp of "Digging in the Dirt," the yearning "More Than This," and the previously unreleased "Burn You Up, Burn You Down," which hearkens back to his gloriously quirky mid-'80s period. Other post-SO songs include "Love to Be Loved," "The Tower That Ate People" (from the OVO project), and a live rendition of "Downside Up," featuring Gabriel's daughter Melanie on vocals.

Recorded between 1977 & 2003.

4 stars Well chosen and a good bargain
This is an excellent overview of Peter Gabriel's career, and with the "Hit-Miss" title of each CD Peter acknowledges that he has two groups of fans - those who know the radio and video hits, and those who have a more album centered appreciation. It is a good cross section of material spanning 27 years. In the first 6 years of his career, he put out 4 discs. In the remaining 21 years he has had only three studio discs, but many compilations, live discs, and especially soundtracks. I am not much of a fan of soundtracks, but I do appreciate "Lovetown" and "Cloudless" being included here, as they are soundtrack songs with vocals. It is also a plus to have two OVO songs with vocals, "Tower" and "Father, Son" included. It is these tracks which make it a bargain, along with the unreleased outtakes from the Growing Up disc and tour. Five songs from So, his best disc. Zero songs from PG2, his weakest. Its about exactly what I would have selected.

5 stars Eventually a "Best of" that really is a "Best of"!
What can I say? If you haven't already bought any of Peters CD's and you like his sound these discs will definitely make your day. An unusually wise selection of tunes for a "Best of"!

Faltan quizás temas como "Mercy Street", "Washing of The Water".Éste último, creo que infaltable en una recopilación de grandes éxitos de Peter Gabriel.

THE VERY BEST OF includes a 46-page booklet with pictures and track information. "Hole In The World" was nominated for the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal. The Eagles' founders Don Henley and Glenn Frey were forthright in their desire to bring then-emerging country rock to new heights of commercial success. Formed in Los Angeles in 1971, they learned from their observations of the scene around them, and subsequently took their music to the top of the charts. They stayed there throughout the '70s, becoming synonymous with the sound of Southern California rock. The band's first hit was with a song by Jackson Browne, and their first album also included a cover of "Ol' 55" by Tom Waits, but the bulk ...

Hard-rock juggernauts Guns 'N' Roses arrived as rock & roll saviors in a dark time of generic hair metal and bloated pop. With only five studio albums to draw from (one being the all-covers SPAGHETTI INCIDENT), nearly a third of the material on GREATEST HITS is unsurprisingly devoted to other people's songs. Inclusions range from a dramatic version ...

Recorded between 1969 & 2003. Includes liner notes by Chris Welch. For a band with outsized ambitions like those of prog-rock pioneers Yes, it makes sense to release an anthology that spreads itself out grandly over three discs. With its third disc, a home for 20 minutes of newly recorded bonus tracks, the appropriately titled ULTIMATE YES stops just short of box-set length (there have already been two of those to tell the group's story), but finely chronicles Yes's long career. Through a maze of head-spinning personnel changes, almost every album is touched on, from the early post-psychedelic phase (the title ...

Artist Name: EvaBirth Date: 11/15/1974Birth Place: Matanzas, CubaBirth Name: Ada Eva OlivaNationality: CubanOccupation: SingerKnown for: Album: “Padre Usame”Ada Eva Oliva known as “Eva” was born in Matanzas, Cuba on November 15, 1974. Arriving in Miami, Florida as a toddler, she grew up listening to Miami’s variety of Latin music. Eva had an interest in singing at a very young age. During her childhood and growing up in the 80’s she admired a lot of the American and Latin singers. She participated in school talent shows, and competitions during her younger years. When Eva was 14 years old, her brother, Alberto Nuñez, now her Manager, spoke to her about the Lord. Even though she was reluctant to a new form of life and a new way of believing, a friend of hers invited her to a church where she started becoming interested in the things of God. Once she gave her heart to the Lord, Jesus Christ, she started singing at church and enjoyed Christian music. Even though she was inspired by music, she never thought about becoming a singer until later on in life. During that time, she decided to go to College and finished her Associates Degree as a Paralegal, and finished her Bachelor Degree in Business Management. While studying her Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy, her step sister ...
