Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Before Meat Loaf, there was Tom!.......2007-07-11

This compilation encompasses both the early and the later hits of the legendary vocalist. The most unforgettable songs from his most productive period in the 1960s and early 1970s are here: the country classic Green Green Grass Of Home, classic pop like It's Not Unusual, What's New Pussycat, She's A Lady and I'll Never Fall in Love Again and pulsating vocal rock or dramatic power ballads (Pre-Meatloafian) like Delilah, Thunderball, Help Yourself, Daughter Of Darkness and Young New Mexican Puppeteer. There are some omissions, like Detroit City and minor hits such as Once Upon a Time, Little Lonely One, and With These Hands.

The second phase of his career is well represented by his innovative collaborations with new generation artists like Art Of Noise - the magnificent Kiss (1988), Burning Down The House with the Cardigans, the cover of the Three Dog Night hit Mama Told Me Not To Come with Stereophonics, the Medley with Robbie Williams and Stoned In Love with Chicane. Of course his booming baritone is the factor that holds all the styles together, whether it's the lush orchestral arrangements of the 1960s or the more experimental stuff of recent years. So although there are some important omissions, this album deserves five stars for providing a thorough overview of an impressive body of work.

      5 out of 5 stars Brings back memories.......2006-01-22

      I have all 3 albums on cassettes and was not able to listen to them. This CD is an excellent idea. I am glad I decided to search for PB CDs. The commentary Mark does for each song is great.

      5 out of 5 stars Casual Listiner Loved This CD.......2004-11-02

      When I first herd them I thought they where good but I had herd there second album.But them I herd there first.Its great.And Some people may disagree but I say they where hair metal in there early years.Not In Love has a real Whitesnake metal balad feel.And in the video there pulling off a total metal stage act.The drummer spinnin his stix and there's a bit of coreography.I still say there pop metal.Not just pop.And a great band all in all.

      4 out of 5 stars Ultra Cheesy 80s Pop Masterpieces.......2003-04-19

      Ok everyone, when you see the back cover of this cd you know you are in for an 80s cheese fest. But surprise, surprise, Platinum Blonde is one hell of an underrated band, in the same league as Honeymoon Suite or even Duran Duran, the blondes have made some of the best 80s pop ever. Songs like Situation Critical, Lost In Space and Standing in the Dark are just some of the greats includes on this cd.

      So, If you love 80s cheese pop, you are in for a threat, if not beware...I warned you.

      5 out of 5 stars WITHOUT A DOUBT, PLATINUM BLONDE AT THEIR PLATINUM BEST.......2001-07-15

      This great group from Toronto reminds any follower to be thankful for such considerable R'nR accomplishment (even if it was short-lived). Although many promotional shots taken of this band make them seem like glamour-boy pop icons, one listen to their music proves how wrongly they were portrayed. Any glitter rock or glossy image that found its way to the marketplace was due to the uncompromising sales-pitch techniques of Epic's label company and/or persuasive scheme motives of co-producer Eddy Offord. Hard-synthesized guitar combinations, solid drumming and a lot of true-grit emotion and energy confirms the truth combining this no-frills attached 80's rock dynamo.

      Luckily, every song favorite packs itself into this compilation. No need to think, "Well, I'll buy this hit segment until their next `best of` anthology is released to fill any gaps." An all-round better value and group representation than having stacked one on top the other their three preceding album undertakings only filling up space up in your collection. As an option to the reader(s), my suggestion would likewise be (for instance) to put aside some old Loverboy hit's CD release and make room for this superior Canadian group chronology instead...

      4 out of 5 stars Blondes United!!.......2001-05-23

      While not as gripping as their debut effort, this collection tracks the band through their seven year history. All the essential tracks are here, from gritty to glossy, this collection covers it. Definately a pre-cursor to their latest effort...no.9 I can taste the 80's now!!

        I would highly recomend this album especially if you are a Vengaboys fan. Every song on this album is very high energy and danceable except for a few which are just a bunch of computer sounds. This disc also has three videos and screensavers. Don't hesitate in buying this. "The Party Album" by The Vegaboys is also very amazing.

          Customer Reviews:

          4 out of 5 stars 14 Foreigner + 3 Lou Gramm = 1 good CD.......2001-02-02

          Made in AUS in 1999, Serial# 7567-80949-2, Playing Time 73:22

          This compilation features songs up to their "The Very Best... And Beyond" album (track 12). Foreigner sold millions of albums... If you listened to rock radio in the 80's you know (probably by heart) half of the songs on this CD.

          I am somewhat puzzled by the track selection: I can think of at least great 40 songs to put on a CD, but they wouldn't all fit; so why choose 3 from Lou Gramm? I would have preferred a 2-disc set with 1 disc of ballads, 1 disc of rockers.

          I'm not sure why anyone would buy this: I would have left out some of the songs to leave room for some others. Maybe some of those were very popular in Australia, where this disc was made.

          If you don't own most of their albums, get "The Very Best... And Beyond" instead; and shame on you for missing out on these icons of the 1980's.

          5 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Foreigner Collection.......2000-07-08

          This CD is a great compilation. It's got a lot of familiar Foreigner hits, but what really sets it apart are the tracks from Lou Gramm and some lesser known Foreigner material. The sound is exceptional as well. I don't know if there was any remastering done or not, but it sure sounds like it. A lot of these songs have never sounded better. It is pricey though.
