First, these outstanding songs were performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, one of the BEST orchestra in the world!

The LSO has a great reputation for playing Rock & Pop music, and they done it again with this album. I really love some tracks, like Night in White Satin, House of Rising Sun, Bohemian Rhapsody, Another Brick in the Wall and Layla. The atmosphere was grand, and that helped unleashed the spirit of the songs.

This CD is truly incredible.I liked it much better than just about anything else the LSO has done. As many have already stated before me, I think this CD will appeal to a wide variety of audiences-and especially for those who are used to listening to rock and are now enjoying classical music. This CD deserves the"cult classic" status it has attained over the past few years, and amoungst rock symphonies is only surpassed by the "Door's Concerto".

I love this cd, I found it at a thift store. I listen to it all the time. If you want awsome music BUY IT!!!

This CD is very amusing. It reminds me of Radio Jordan - The English station Broadcasting from Amman Jordan & is recieved here & different cities around Israel & the PA... You see, they played these sorts of instrumentals all the time. Anything they could get their hands on - Yani, Kenny G, and lots of this stuff... so this is kinda like Radio Jordan... but in a good way! :-)

Take your favorite rock song and energize it, expand it, bring it to the next level - and be blown away !

This is incredible music - creates a timeless masterpiece from all your favorite rocks songs....

I'm not sure I like this CD. Attemting to make a symphony out of famous songs gets to be a little heavy handed. The Boston Pops, James Last, Richard Clayderman, Franck Pourcel do a much better job at making the music fresh and new. I was disappointed with the entire CD.

I have owned this CD for around 10 years now and every time I re-find it in my case I listen to it for weeks!
Simply great songs selection interpreted by one of the best Symphonic Orchestras of the world.
Get it now if for some inexplicable reason you don't have it in your collection yet.

Overblown, overorchestrated, overused percussion, sounds dated, not at all what I had expected. Takes way too much license with the original music for no artistic reason. Ruined some of my fovorite songs of alltime: Bohemian Rhapsody, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, Layla, Stairway to Heaven, Nights in White Satin. British Invasion maybe, but not at all my cup of tea!

dear all ....words are not enough in this case .... i realy dont know how to thank you all for the great stuff you'r doing ......i'v ben searching for this albume for ten years .... it makes me feel that am in my own world .....thank you all .. and keep on beieng the best .... emad
