In general, what characterizes the song material are those gorgeous vocal melodies courtesy of Mr. Boals himself and the incredible musicianship all around. Given that we are dealing with thirty tunes in total I think it is fair to say that some compositions are better and more noteworthy than others, but they range from above average to quite solid and further on to utterly impressive. The moving power ballads ala “Broken Heart” and “I'm Sorry” are some of the highlights to these ears, but again, there is a lot of quality stuff for you to dig into and digest here. Other standouts include “Perfect World”, “Darkfall”, and “Mother Russia” - all of which are steeped in mist and mystery. I could easily see those pieces appealing to fans of Black Sabbath's marvelous “Tyr” LP or Dio's brilliant “Magica” opus. I would even go so far as to say that the aforementioned “Perfect World” possesses a majestic “Kashmir”-like vibe in places. In short, “All the Best!” is one of the more memorable and cool collections (or greatest hits) that I have come across lately, so check it out. https://www.facebook.com/markboalsofficial Andre omtaler:22.01.2021: DESCEND TO ACHERON - Transcience Of The Flesh 21.01.2021: DISPYT - Under Tiden Jag Sälde Min Själ Till Satan 20.01.2021: JERRY BLOOM - In the Shadow of the Wizard: Rainbow 1975-1976 19.01.2021: ECLIPSE - Viva La VicTOURia: Live in Gothenburg 18.01.2021: BLUE ÖYSTER CULT - A Long Day’s Night (Deluxe Edition CD/DVD) 16.01.2021: ELLEFSON - No Cover 15.01.2021: U.D.O./Das Musikkorps Der Bundeswehr - We Are One 14.01.2021: FOREIGNER - Can’t Slow Down – Deluxe Edition 13.01.2021: HJELVIK - Welcome to Hel 12.01.2021: HEAVY PETTIN - Best of Heavy Pettin 11.01.2021: STEVE HACKETT - A Genesis in My Bed 08.01.2021: VANDEN PLAS - The Ghost Xperiment - Illumination 07.01.2021: MAGIC DANCE - Remnants 06.01.2021: PERSUADER - Necromancy 05.01.2021: PALACE - Rock and Roll Radio 04.01.2021: GODSEND - As The Shadows Fall 23.12.2020: UNRULY CHILD - Our Glass House 22.12.2020: MEER - Playing House 21.12.2020: JEFF SCOTT SOTO - Wide Awake (in My Dreamland) 19.12.2020: AMAHIRU - Amahiru |
