CD Reviews

Always Great
Benny Mortensen | Denmark | 02/16/2001

"Shocking Blue are always great. I guess i will have to buy it someday. Unfortunately there are many numbers on this record, that i already have, but also some i don't. But if you don't know it, so try " Send me a postcard " and turn up the volume, and feel the hair down your back rise. Really wonderful."
Shocking - no! Just brilliant!

"Thank goodness for Shocking Blue! I bought this having read a music magazine which recommended it and I'm very glad I did. Every single track is fantastic and ranges from rock to pop (the late 60's/early 70's tracks are the rockier ones...) Very difficuly choosing a few favourites, Send Me A Postcard, Inkpot, Shocking You, Hello Darkness, Rock in the Ocean - Venus of course! They really are quite different from any bands I've heard from this period. So far I've also bought the A-sides/B-sides collection which is also recommended... (Get that instead of this because the A-sides duplicates this collection - get this album if you're not sure...) Their album : Scorpio's Dance is also perfect and includes tracks that would also have made great singles... (It comes from 1970 I think and is the album after At Home which is the one that included Venus and Love Buzz which Nirvana covered I believe...) Some reviews I've read suggested that you're more likely to enjoy this if you're 40+ - you might - but I'm 28 and I don't think being a certain age has anything to do with it! SIMPLY EXCELLENT!"
