"Item arrived quick and just as described!"
"Absolute classic, my little sis loves it!!"
"Specifically, the new versions of Wanna Be Startin Somethin (With Akon was really good), Billie Jean (Kayne West with a nice remix), Beat It (With Fergie which was a nice twist), P.Y.T (with Will.I.Am which is better than the original IMO) & even The Girl Is Mine (which was my least favorite on the original album but made better this time around). You get the original nine songs, the little Vincent Price rap and the 6 new versions PLUS a DVD of the Thriller videos (Billie Jean, Beat It, Thriller and the Motown 25th Billie Jean performance). With the exception of the original "The Girl Is Mine" (which I never really liked) this is the perfect version of Thriller released to date."

"I could go in depth about this album in my review, but don't need to: This mono issue has different versions of many tracks that cannot be heard anywhere else, including the Anthology series."
"As any Beatles fan already knows this album (CD)may be the groups best ever compilation of original music, in my opinion the Beatles changed the face of music and created sounds that no one before them ever thought of as music, alarm clocks, crowing roosters,sustained notes the list goes on and on."
"The Beatles."
"While some tracks seem decidedly tongue-in-cheek like the swagger on "Rocky Raccoon" or "Piggies," some of these songs remain classic and the set wears well over 40 years after it was released. The White Album varies sounds and allows the band to explore and stretch, one of the most interesting and provocative of the Beatles' sets."
"Rocky Raccoon, Why Don't We Do It Ii the Road, Blackbird, I Will...I keep it in my CD player in the car as a back up to my Bluetooth device."

"I see in some of the reviews that some fans that have certain expectations and ideas about how George's music should be presented weren't happy with this one."
"Update 8/12/2013: I have upgraded my system to Blu-ray (Oppo), and although my old dvd system (Oppo as well) was not "budget-item", the sync problem has disappeared (still playing the old dvd-disc)."

"This was the 2-disc version and it seems like it may be a relatively infrequent quality problem because it's difficult to believe this problem was encountered by those giving 4 or 5 star reviews.

The Beatles' acclaimed original studio album remasters, released on CD in 2009, make their long-awaited stereo vinyl debut. Following the success of The Beatles' acclaimed, GRAMMY Award-winning 2009 CD remasters, it was decided that the sound experts at EMI's Abbey Road Studios should create new versions of The Beatles' vinyl LPs. The project demanded the same meticulous approach taken for the CD releases, and the brief was a simple one: cut the digital remasters to vinyl with an absolute minimum of compromise to the sound. The first stage in transferring the sound of a master recording to vinyl is the creation of a disc to be used during vinyl manufacture. The older, alternative method is to cut the sound into the soft lacquer coating on a nickel disc - the first of several steps leading to the production of a stamper to press the vinyl. Having made initial test cuts, Magee pinpointed any sound problems that can occur during playback of vinyl records. For example, each vinyl album was listened to for any 'sibilant episodes' - vocal distortion that can occur on consonant sounds such as S and T. These were corrected by reducing the level in the very small portion of sound causing the undesired effect. The last phase of the vinyl mastering process began with the arrival of the first batches of test pressings made from master lacquers that had been sent to the two pressing plant factories.

"I was so dissapointed I left it in a corner for several months then one day I said to myself I would give it a chance so I sat down and listened to it carefully at that point I realized I was not the Beatles I was listening to but a combination of John,George,Paul & ringo showing what was to come on their solo work or first albums next thing I know it was becoming one of my favorite Beatle albums today I have it on cd,cassette and vinyl and on my way to buy a sealed one to leave for my daughter this lp is not meant for any other type of format but vinyl and on a good system so if you have a choice don't get the cd or the excessive hissing cassette."

"Love Mumford & Sons - you have to love the driving music and the accents and the rough and tumble poetry that they put into song."
"It's completely recognizable as the Simon & Garfunkel standard but Marcus adds a slight tweak to the melody line that makes it fresh and new ."
"As the follow up to the 2009 album, Babel does a lot to impress the listener. The band allows themselves to go quiet at times to paint a picture that is in compliment to what Mumford & Sons has created since their early formation."
"The heartfelt lyrics pierce the soul, at times, and the emotions build with guitars, banjos and even brass to a crescendo befitting the sentiment, never out of place or disjointed."
"Like my other review of this band-I can't listen to them ALL the time-but they are a fun romp when I am ready and always have rollicking tunes and lyrics."
"The band follows Sigh no More with a album that is even larger in sound than the first, a feat I thought impossible."
"When I tried to rip the songs off of the CD the mp3's had the same issue which makes me think it is a defect on how it's imprinted on the CD."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The reviewer who gave this set 1 star is being very nit picky about what is obviously a great representation of Sinatra's music. Sure, hardcore Sinatraphiles such as myself always want to hear more previously unreleased Sinatra music, and Sinatra's catalog of recordings is so vast that even 100 recordings is super-difficult to narrow it down to."
"This is the first time material from all three of Sinatra’s labels (Columbia, Capitol, and Reprise) are included on the same collection, and it’s also the first time many of these tracks have had any significant remastering efforts, so that alone makes this a worthy purchase."
"The most important songs IMO (the ones that are in disc 2) are mostly mastered fine, but for example the first 2 tracks on the first lp are atrociously bad sounding, i dont know where they sourced them from but i guess no mastering will save that mess."
"I'm sure the most adamant Sinatra fans would find a song or two missing but for a great overview of this man's career spanning works, this is a must have collection whether you are just discovering Sinatra's music or have been a fan for decades."
"This is the best LP I own, I've tried to listen the same songs on iTunes music and the difference is very sharp, it was really good remastered."
"If you want a brief collection of Frank Sinatra from 1939 to his last years,this is the collection for you.I am a collector and if I was to pick 100 songs that best define him,my choice would be pretty close to these selections."
"I love this collection.I have many Frank Sinatra collections but, this is by far the best."
"There's nothing to add to sinatra perfomance and songs, a excellent compilation of his songs, the pressing is excellent, highly rated in british audio magazines."
