4.0 out of 5 stars Call it "Eclectic" Light Orchestra, April 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Burning Bright (Audio CD)

Here's a very interesting budget overview of ELO that includes some big hits ("Hold On Tight," "Turn to Stone," "Strange Magic," and "Livin' Thing" for starters) and some outstanding album tracks (the instrumental tour de force "Fire On High," "Stranger," "Standin' in the Rain," and "Night in the City"). It's 40 minutes of pop brilliance. The packaging is cheap, but if it's music that you want, this CD has the goods. Be on the lookout for ELO CLASSICS, which is another budget CD in a similar vein to BURNING BRIGHT, with some other great cuts.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Super Cool CD to Own!!, December 18, 2003

For the fans of ELO, this is the keeper. Not only does it have thier greatest music but it is great quality as well. Don't buy it for liner notes or fancy artwork - there is none of that here. Only the greatest pop group ever. If you want fancy artwork or liner notes, buy vinyl for the best visuals. No other band can play like this with such emotion. Boy, I wished they stilled toured.

This review is from: Burning Bright (Audio CD)

Although this compilation isn't entirely that great but it's nice that they have Fire on High (which should've been on the Greatest Hits album as well as Strange Music: The Best Of) and I used to crank up Standin' in the Rain all the time around the late months of 1996 to about summer of 1997, that song should've been a huge hit, it's also nice to see them put Night in the City on here as well, I remember that I desparately wanted to hear Strange Magic cause it was one of my favorite songs around that time period.

Song list

Turn to Stone, Livin Thing, Standin in the Rain, Stranger, Strange Magic, Hold on Tight, Night in the City, Do Ya, Fire on High and Rock 'n' Roll is King.
