A COLLECTION OF GREAT DANCE SONGS

Probably this compilation is a masrerpiece if this compilation be an album of a X band. But since Pink Floyd released various albums and since this compilation not have songs from Psychedelic albums/ O.S.T. I think that this compilation isn't a good compilation for who not have nothing of pink Floyd but have the idea that Pink Floyd was "The Wall". "The Wall" isn't a Punk album, of course... But "The Wall" isn't a Prog album. Or better "The Wall" is a strange combination between Prog music (Not proper...) and Punk attitude and concept. So "Another Brick In The Wall (part 2)" is sure an evergreen because part of Punk world. And in thias compilation "Another Brick In The Wall (part 2)" is present of course...! "One Of These Days" was a great song in 1971 and for an album as "Meddle". "One Of These Days" is a pure mix between Psychedelic side of Canterbury and POP, pure POP with no compromise. Sure a good song, innovative but today isn't a memorable song, if not for bass line with phaser. Today "One Of These Days" plays heavy and hard, old and so complicated... "Money" is in 1981's Gilmour version. Not bad at all but only because the soul of this song is saved. "Sheep", from "Animals" is a good song for an album as "Animals" and in this compilation sound good. "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" is only an extract from this suite and not have a gram of magic. "Wish You Were Here" is an homage to Syd Barret and for these reason is an evergreen for Pink Floyd. Is also a gret composition. But not for this reason is an evergreen! And the final song, "Another Brick In The Wall (part 2)"... I've already discuss about this song.

So, is "A Collection Of Great Dance Songs" a good compilation? For the musical value yes. But in my view "A Collection Of Great Dance Songs" is only a collection of songs for who have euros to spend and nothing more. (P.s.: But sound tremendously great for a trip in car when I drive!).
