Should have been called 'OMD: The Videos' December 30, 2008
I've always wanted a DVD of OMD's video clips and it seemed like one was never going to be released. When I discovered this item I got it immediately and it's fantastic!
I haven't even listened to the CD yet, but it's the videos that are outstanding, most hardly ever seen since the 80's. There's about 31 clips in all, and picture-wise they look as good or better than they would have in their era.
Amazon should classify this item in its DVD category instead of CD. I would have bought it packaged as a stand-alone DVD without the CD, but I guess its a bonus!
OMD Best Compilation By Far November 10, 2008
Unpromoted which is a shame, Thanks to Amazon This Compilation is easy to obtain. As an OMD fan from thier early days this a must for all collectors. I bought this for the DVD alone but I am sure the Cd will get some use. Excellent purchase for any music fan as this Band have infuenced so many over the years. Great to see them on thier reunion Tour. And may they continue to please thier fans for years to come, Timeless.
Why can't they all be like this?? November 3, 2008
There are so many bands from the late 70's and early 80's that have GREAT videos from their heyday that never see the light of day (see Depeche Mode) while a group like OMD slaps them all onto this superb DVD for fans to see. I am only 30 but grew up seeing the videos on MTV as a little kid in the late 80's. Even my 24 year old wife has gotten into OMD after I played the material off the greatest hits compilations from the past. This one tops them all though. I'm so happy -someone- in the band or close to them took the time to protect the material for all those years. I can't recall how many times I've read bands lost their masters for videos, etc over time. Kudos to Andy and Paul!
What a bargain - CD and ALL their promo videos October 7, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Yes, yes, it is a rehash of the Best Of OMD from'88 and The OMD Singles from '98. BUT, and this is a big but...this new package contains ALL of the bands promo videos spanning their entire career.
Some of the videos show their age (although cleaned up nicely for this release), and are worth watching for nostalgic purposes. However, some of the newer vids are stunning - I will make particular mention of Walking on the Milky Way, Dream of Me, and Then You Turn Away - the purchase price is worth it for these tracks alone.
As a bonus, you get 20 remastered tracks on CD - not one of them a duffer (which makes this greatest hits package virtually unique, against most other artists).
Bargain purchase.
A must for OMD fans October 6, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
As a life long fan this was a must buy for me. I was't too interested in the CD (as like many i've got all the tracks a few times over) it was the DVD i wanted. Infact really this should really be called 'Messages - The OMD videos' with a audio CD thrown in for free. I've now replaced the ageing VHS tape and am delighted to have been able to that. For the newbie an excellent audio and visual combination to start you on your way!
