Editorial Reviews
Welcome to the Playlist series. Painstakingly compiled by the artists and the music nuts at Legacy Recordings, these collections truly represent an artists' complete body of work. We've fished through hundreds-thousands-of tracks to cherry pick the perfect playlists. Not just the hits (anyone can find those). The life changing cuts. The out-of-print tracks. The fan favorites everyone loves. The songs that make the artist who they are.
You’ll no doubt enjoy the sound of the beautifully remastered songs on this CD (as opposed to MP3's that contain less information, which translate into compromised sound). But we think the thing you'll appreciate most about this Playlist is that even though you didn't make it, you might wish you did.

It's Been Over 32 Big Long Years...but the wait is OVER!,
By
This review is from: Playlist: The Very Best of Eddie Money (Eco-Friendly Packaging) (Audio CD)
Short and to the point. For some reason...for which we may never know...CBS has withheld for re-released, the rare and oh-so coveted SINGLE MIX of "TWO TICKETS TO PARADISE", that was originally pressed onto 45RPM phonograph record, back in 1977. COUNTLESS...yes, count them if you can...COUNTLESS Money compilations have showered the industry since as early as 1990...and none, yes, NONE have contained this special rare version.
Containing a completely different vocal take from Money, and the music instrumentation spliced together in different jigsaw puzzle forms...some audio analysts say the music tracks were completely different too...that is not a fact...the "basic tracks" are the same, however the lead guitar solo is indeed an alternate take, as well as the guitar embellishments that encompass the choruses...and the entire mixdown was tooled & leveled differently...HOTTER! Nevertheless...we can go on & on, on just how this SINGLE VERSION differs from the Classic-Rock-Now-Radio-Friendly ALBUM VERSION...but the time has come to relax...CBS/SONY has tired of demanding us to cry 'UNCLE', and so it is now here for the taking...the SINGLE VERSION of "TWO TICKETS TO PARADISE", in all it's late-70's AM-Radio Glory! Shall we partake? Note: On a SOLID GOLD episode in 1981 (yes, I know, that program reeked of CHEESE stench, from miles away) Eddie Money and a "Studio Musician" crew "synced" to that version! I bet you did not know that? The camera did a close-up on the blue-jeaned, white business collared shirt, lead guitar player...and he SHREDDED-OUT that "REMIX" solo...sync-played it...WITHOUT A HITCH! Amazing...!

TWO TICKETS - WORTH IT,
By AB MUSIC FAN (Charlotte, NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Playlist: The Very Best of Eddie Money (Eco-Friendly Packaging) (Audio CD)
I've been looking for the single version of "Two Tickets To Paradise" for months. This is the only cd with that version! It was well worth the money.

Wow! The powerful single version of Two Tickets!,
By Captain Nemo (Central Virginia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Playlist: The Very Best of Eddie Money (Eco-Friendly Packaging) (Audio CD)
"Wooooo hooooo it's gonna be so nice!!!"
Yes, those are the missing song lyrics that we have been waiting for ever since radio stations stopped playing the 45 rpm record version of "Two Tickets To Paradise" way back in 1978. And finally, after all of these years, it has been released on cd. Miracles do happen! Eddie's vocal performance is much stronger on the single version than the album version, and the dual lead guitars add more depth to the song. Yes, the traditional extended guitar solo is gone; however, the single version of Two Tickets contained here is much more powerful and it is not much shorter in length than the album version. I have always been a big fan of full length album tracks with no edits or alterations to the song; however, this particular song is a rare exception. I didn't buy the cd, but downloaded the mp3 for Two Tickets to Paradise. Thank you amazon.com, and thank you Sony Legacy for releasing this.
