A great follow up 15 Nov 2011
Format:Audio CD
American Anthems 2 is a great follow up compilation. The box features three CDs. 58 tracks are included of these iconic American artists and groups to establish in the music scene. The music spans at least two decades (70's and 80's)

First disc- Toto-Africa, Tina Turner- We do need another hero, Whitesnake- Here I go again, Hall & Oates- I can't go for thatn;, Fleetwod Mac- Everywhere and 14 more tracks

Second disc- Reo Speedwagon- Can't fight the feeling, Huey Lewis & The News- Stuck with you, Chicago- If you leave me know, Cyndi Lauper- Time after time, Mr Mister- Kyrie and 14 more tracks

Third disc- Cher- If I could Turn Back time, Starship- Nothing gonna stop us now, Roy Orbison- I drove all night, Meat Loaf- Two out of three ain't bad, Kiss- Crazy Crazy nights and 15 more tracks

I have listed 5 tracks of each disc. These songs stand out the most with me as memorable American Anthems. I fondly remembering listening to the tracks during my childhood. The calibre of artists and group speaks for themselves and you know what to expect. The wide choice of tracks offered is unique, as there are many tracks that I have not listened to and I really enjoy listening to the tracks. Full credit must be given for offering variety. The British music scene during the 70's and 80's decade was saturated as some American bands and groups made in-roads in the scene. Unfortunately not all artists and groups received recognition in UK. There was far too much competition. It is nice to listen and appreciate the music scene of America, as it really boosted some quality and nostalgic tracks. The idea of releasing a follow up is justified as there are so many tracks I have not listned to. American Anthems offers an excellent choice of tracks to listen timelessly. I am impressed with the album.

a great follow up album to the wonderful American Anthems offering ,i don't buy many cd's these days ,but i came across these 2 albums the other day and ordered both of them immediatly. recongized most of the tracks and so many of them make you sit up and take notice ,when they get played on the radio .fair play the yanks have created some great rock music and you won't get much better than these albums.

By Sweetlilac TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD
The 3 discs contain a much better song selection that version 1 of this series.

Disc 3 is my favourite i have to say, there isn't a song on there i dont like, and finishing a cd with princes purple rain is class, i replayed it about 5 times.

I have been happily singing away all night whilst wrapping Christmas presents, one of which this was supposed to be, but i decided to nick it for myself.

Ooops :0)

Not as good as No.1
Enjoyed volume 1 and hoped there would be a vol 2. Good but not as many strong anthems as the first.

Anthems mark 2
Great CDs - price good for so much music. Perhaps not quite as "great" as Anthems 1, but still lots of great music. Appeals to a wide age range too.

very impressed
Very happy with purchase. Some real classics with some modern twists. Would definately recommend this album. Glad they brought out a sequel!

Excellent collection.
Great little collection of songs, good driving music. Fairly decent range too, so not monotonous. I haven't had to skip a single track, so that's a good sign. Read more
