1.0 out of 5 stars Attractive compilation but flawed., 12 April 2006
By Lee Beng Swee "BS Lee" (Malaysia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Wonderful compilation on a double disc album of their greatest hits, BUT..
Having compared with earlier 20 Golden Greats compilation, EMI certainly screwed up on Disc 1. Did some random track comparison and found disappointing flaws.
Track 1: Apache: Over bloomed with less definition.
Track 15: Foot Tapper: Sounds in mono whereas its wide stereo in the earlier compilation album.
Track 19: Theme for Young lovers. Glitch at the start with double note and channels are switched.
Disc 1 is certainly flawed. The guys at EMI should have paid more attention to the quality.
Am disappointed with this compilation. EMI should recall and replace this double disc set.

5.0 out of 5 stars All the Favourites on one CD!, 16 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This CD contains some of the best instrumental rock of its decade. 50 of the best tracks from The Shadows and all on one CD.If you are a Shadows Fan or you just like the sound of the guitar then this is an ultimate buy.This CD is Shadows at their best with all the favourites like Apache.Top Album Which Deserves the five star treatment.

4.0 out of 5 stars Stratocaster Heaven, 26 Jan 2005
By F. Wood "Kyle The Monkey" (washington, Tyne-Wear United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Forget the cover versions at the end of disc 2.The Shadows hits that fill the other disc and a half are the sounds that inspired a generation of guitar freaks.Worth buying for Wonderful Land alone,which is presented here in the original,undubbed, version before Norrie Paramor added the strings which grace the 45 rpm release.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Shads CD should be in everybodies' collection.
Whether there ARE FIFTY greats is debatable, but a Shads hits collection is indispensible to anyone who can remember the early 1960s. As indispensible as The Beatles IMHO.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shadows at their best
Ever since I first heard Shadows I've been a big fan.
This is a cheap CD with 50 mostly excellent tracks.
It's well worth the cost.
