1.0 out of 5 stars The Early Years-Madonna is false advertising!, June 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Early Years (Audio CD)

To all of you Madonna fans who can't get enough of her early dance pop years, do not buy this CD. I bought it in hopes of hearing what Madonna sounded like before she became a household name. Unfortunately, this entire CD contains only samples of her voice totalling about 3 minutes of airtime. The songs are basically synthesized experiments by Otto van Werner(sp?). MADONNA DOES NOT SING ON THIS CD. Otto used clips of a few words here and there that Madonna spoke and just looped them over and over again. This CD is false advertising--it is not Madonna's work, but Otto's. Please do not buy this CD. You will only be sorely disappointed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste a lot of money!, June 14, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Early Years (w/Otto Von Wernherr Mixes) (Audio CD)

The songs on here are worse than run-of-the-mill, they're either boring or annoying. The fact that there are multiple versions of nearly all only adds to the repetitiveness of each individual track. Being a fan of Madonna's should keep you from buying this: it's stuff she never intended to be released, especially at this stage in the game!

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst CD ever!, December 11, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Early Years (Audio CD)

These aren't even songs for crying out loud! Just a desperate attempt by this guy Otto to make some money using Madonna's name and voice (Which was altered so much in some of the tracks that it doesn't even sound like her.) Save yourself the time and money--don't buy it!!
