5.0 out of 5 stars It's About Time!, September 7, 2001

This review is from: Player / Danger Zone (Audio CD)

One of the greatest and most overlooked bands of the late 70's/early 80's! Player is pure west-coast pop/rock! Much in the vein of Hall and Oates, but with a little more of a rock edge! Peter Beckett has a fantastic vocal range which is pure listenig pleasure. Baby come back is a classic rock #1 billboard charting music staple! But, for the real fan's like myself it's the obsure album tracks that are my favorite such as:Love In The Danger Zone,Prisoner Of Your Love,Movin'Up,and Cancellation to name a few.If you love fantastic up beat pure 80's rock you'll want this fantastic c.d. in your collection! It's my favorite c.d. and I have alot of them!

This review is from: Player / Danger Zone (Audio CD)

One Way records has done it again! A must buy/have. This is a fun CD. The manner in which the music was written and played instrumentally will bring smiles to your face. This CD touts the original songs in their original 1977 & 1978 sequence which is always good!

Additionally this CD has two album/compilations "Player" and "Danger Zone".

If you are looking for memories as to a very different yet marvelous time in music this is it. From the hit, "Baby Come Back" to "Melanie"--the tunes are all gloriously here. (Note: Sadly, Player must have forseen their own demise with the great tunes "Cancellation" and "Tryin' to Write A Hit Song").

The price is outstanding for the two-fer offering here. Grab it up before it goes out-of-print.

This review is from: Player / Danger Zone (Audio CD)

Even though I own several, Various Artists, compilations: I don't care much for them and this band right here is another prime example why. Their well known late 70s chart smash, Baby Come Back, is on one of my ,Various Artists, Disc's and that's it. Nothing else by this Band can be found on any of my ,Various Artists, Disc's and, Player, offered so much more to it's fans than just that one song and this CD proves it.There are about six songs here that I like better than, Baby Come Back. This Band was so talented and so underrated and as of the date of this Review; there wasn't even a Spotlight Review for this CD. Besides, Baby Come Back, I did remember three other Songs here on my first listen but my biggest surprise were tunes I had never heard before. This (Two LP's On One CD) is solid from start to finish.....Outstanding! I was going to purchase their, Best Of Player, CD here at Amazon and right at the last second I decided to purchase this one and I am glad I did because only a few of these songs are on the, Best Of, CD. People have different tastes in music but to me this is great.

Final Note: If you are concerned about the sound quality on this CD: don't be; because it is great too.
