5.0 out of 5 stars See the VHS also to get it all!, May 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Portrait (Audio CD)

I have many JD's Cd's but only bought Portrait VHS recently. I would especially like to mention Let It Begin/What are We Making Weapons For. I believe this is the best song John ever wrote, if you haven't heard it, or especially seen it, you are missing something great and powerful, if you are a true JD fan, you must hear and see this. It will leave you speechless. The rest of the songs are a combination of old and new, but now done with John's more experienced and powerful voice. This is a must. I just can't say enough, buy it and try it. What Are We Making Weapons For combines John with the top singer in Russia today, and the Men's Red Army Chorus, they are a treat in themselves. Again, a must for the true collector.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very, Very Relaxing., October 5, 1999

Gary Scheer - See all my reviews

This review is from: Portrait (Audio CD)

I feel this album was nearly as good as the rest of John's. The songs have slowed down to what they were when he first sang them. I thought I was a true JD fan, but there are a number of songs on this 2 cd set that I have never heard. I guess I need to buy all the rest of his albums so I can truely enjoy this talented singer/songwriter. I don't feel the review given by Amazon.com was fair. Why would you want all of JD's albums to sound the same?

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Collection, February 11, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Portrait (Audio CD)

This collection doesn't contain all the fabulous well known hits that you can find on any "Greatest Hits" album. It simply contains the very best and beautiful of JD's music. The "live" version of "Looking for Space" is fantastic!
