4 out of 5 stars Great Old Fashioned Fun.......2007-06-27

Michael Pare & Willem Dafoe really bring back the old days with their hero versus villain story. Each time that I watch this movie, I am captured by the music as time passes quickly as I am on the edge of my seat awaiting the next move.

5 out of 5 stars Brings back great memories..........2007-06-08

I loved this movie back when it came out and I still do. Great music for those of us growing up in the 80's. Would recommend this to anyone wanting to reminisce. Diane Lane, Michael Pare, and Willem Dafoe are great. Hope you enjoy as much as I did.

5 out of 5 stars Underestimated brilliance.......2007-05-27

This CD is fantastic. The feel of the songs match the mood of the film. I invite you all to listen to it and tell me you don't get a feel good wave running through you. Quite simply ... exceptional

5 out of 5 stars Terrific Album.......2007-05-16

A very enjoyable album. The music is powerful, exciting and fun. It was a favorite when I watched the film and it has remained one for me.

4 out of 5 stars good sound for a good movie.......2007-05-13

Not enough appreciated by the public, still one hot action movie of the '80s.

I normally hate Springsteen tributes, but this is amazing. Into the Fire and Atlantic City are both incredible.

I don't know what the other guy is thinking.

1 out of 5 stars Awful trash.......2003-06-19

This pains me to say it but as a collector of springsteen related stuff, thi smight very well be the worst yet. The string arrangements are pedestrain and amateur. The melodies are discernible but it hurts to hear those favourite tunes murdered like this

4 out of 5 stars Very good album, but buyer beware.......2003-01-08

This is an enjoyable follow-up to "The Wild Places", but before anyone pays the rather exhorbitant import price, please be aware that, for some inexplicable (and unmentioned) reason, the title cut has been edited down from eight to three minutes. When the label corrects this error I'll happily purchase the cd again, but in the meantime, I'm reluctantly returning this copy and seeking out the original vinyl.

3 out of 5 stars Lovely, but flawed.......1999-01-26

Browne's second Sire album (orig. released 1979) returned much of the brooding melodicism of _The Wild Places_, but featured somwhat starker, darker instrumental settings. The taut, punchy "Fauvette" sounds a bit like Dire Straits and features some of Browne's best electric fingerpicking; "She's Just a Fallen Angel" is gorgeous but almost oppressively sad. "American Heartbeat" is the only other really noteworthy song on the album, recalling _Wild Places_ in its cinematic density; silly lyrics though.

Most of the rest of the record is amiable, but minor, showcasing the impressive skills of Browne's late-70's band, especially fretless bassist John Giblin and drummer Simon Phillips (who went on to work with Pete Townshend and others in a studio career that lasted through the 80s). In short, it's a pretty good mood piece that might appeal to, say, late-period Roxy Music fans. Browne cultists probably already have the album; newcomers might want to try tracking down _The Wild Places_ first.

    5 out of 5 stars one of a kind.......2003-09-17

    I bought Streets of Fire back in the late seventies, when you couldn't pre-listen much; I just liked that cool dagger earring. I must have played it at least 200 times since, probably more, and i bet if i put it on right now it would still reveal nuances I'd never noticed. so spacious, so beautifully woven, natural, uncontrived, no wonder he never really made it that big. last night I dreamt about him. he was the real thing. sigh...

    4 out of 5 stars Music's great - compilation missing a song.......2000-07-11

    I probably would have rated this five stars because I have always been such a fan of the late Duncan Browne. I was thrilled to be able to find an affordable CD that included both of the classic albums. It is also nice to have the liner notes because even though I have been a longtime fan, I never knew much about him. "The Wild Places" and "Streets of Fire" are Browne's better known works, even though most of his material has been largely ignored or unnoticed. He was a true talent with a gift for generating mood-enhancing music. I am extremely disappointed that "Cancion de Cuna: Street Echoes" was left off this collection. That was the final peaceful track on "Streets of Fire." Perhaps the label ran out of room as the two albums combined run about 76 minutes. However it is still pleasant to get clean copies of "The Wild Places," "American Heartbeat," "(Restless) Child of Change" and all of the others.

    4 out of 5 stars Before the "New Romantic"........2005-02-27

    Having purchased these two albums back in the late seventies I was surprised to see them on disc. I was a huge Metro fan from 1977. Duncan Browne was an overlooked pioneer of cool stories of love and loss much like Bryan Ferry. The musicianship on these tracks is excellent , with standout performances by bassist John Glblin, who went on to successful gigs with Simple Minds and Brand X. If you like your music dressed to the nines and your songs soundtracks of the elusive girl that got away, Duncan Browne is your man.

    4 out of 5 stars great but too expensive.......2001-01-18

    I bought this in the Netherlands in 1988 for about half the price. The title track was a big hit in the Netherlands in 1979 and I bought the lp back then.

    Obviously, you should go for the twofer one as it is a much better deal. I am not that familiar with Streets of Fire, but based on the Wild Places alone, it is a good buy.

    The husky voice and nice acoustic twelve string guitar have been mentioned elsewhere. Apart from that, praise should be given to John Giblin, an amazing bass player who played with (Phil Colins' hobby jazz rock project) Brand X, and later enjoyed fame with Simple Minds. The bass is used as an instrument rather than part of the rhythm section.

    Epic melodies, beautifully executed, somewhere between symphonic music and prog music.

    The silly cover belies its content.
