3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as Superstars I, May 17, 2004

This is a good cd, but not a great one. I was so excited when I saw Bellydance Superstars II, since the first CD is incredible! I use these for performing in restaurants and I felt that this CD didn't have enough variety to do a whole show. Most of the songs sounded like pop recordings, there weren't any "performing" pieces that had a lot of tempo changes and rythmn changes that would lend themselves to a great choreography. I'll still use some of these songs, especially the first track, but if you're looking for a repeat of the first Superstars CD, this isn't it. Hopefully Superstars III will be better!

Wow, what a great selection of songs! Each song is a pleasure to listen and to dance to. I have a wonderful time dancing to this CD for my dance shows and my students love it as well.
This is the best bellydance compilation I've heard in years, and it's also better than the first Bellydance Superstars. Highly recommended to avid listeners of amazing Middle-Eastern beats and dancers who can't get enough of shake shake shake!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Different But Just As Great As Volume 1, February 11, 2006

I listened to this CD just a few times before it grew on me, and it did so quickly. My first impression was that it is completely different than the compilation of Volume 1, so if you own the first CD, keep an open mind and let go of your expectations. Where Volume 1 contains mostly bellydance and middle eastern classics, Volume 2 is made up of more modern, pop and techno tracks, such as "Entrance Of The Stars," a song that was composed specifically for the Superstars and Desert Roses. This one has several shorter tracks suitable for solo performances and I like that! I found the perfect song for my sword dance in this compilation! I think that it's important for a dancer to be willing to try a variety of music and dance styles, and this is a great addition to your library.
