Customer Reviews
Music's great - compilation missing a song
I probably would have rated this five stars because I have always been such a fan of the late Duncan Browne. I was thrilled to be able to find an affordable CD that included both of the classic albums. It is also nice to have the liner notes because even though I have been a longtime fan, I never knew much about him. "The Wild Places" and "Streets of Fire" are Browne's better known works, even though most of his material has been largely ignored or unnoticed. He was a true talent with a gift for generating mood-enhancing music. I am extremely disappointed that "Cancion de Cuna: Street Echoes" was left off this collection. That was the final peaceful track on "Streets of Fire." Perhaps the label ran out of room as the two albums combined run about 76 minutes. However it is still pleasant to get clean copies of "The Wild Places," "American Heartbeat," "(Restless) Child of Change" and all of the others.
one of a kind
I bought Streets of Fire back in the late seventies, when you couldn't pre-listen much; I just liked that cool dagger earring. I must have played it at least 200 times since, probably more, and i bet if i put it on right now it would still reveal nuances I'd never noticed. so spacious, so beautifully woven, natural, uncontrived, no wonder he never really made it that big. last night I dreamt about him. he was the real thing. sigh...
