Summary: Anthology
Comment: I bought the CD as a reaction to the movie "Across the Universe" and because I had heard a few cuts at a friend's house. After the novelty wore off, I realized i had heard it all before. Many of the cuts used tracks from the previously released "Anthologies", so there was really nothing new. It is interesting to listen to another person's opinion on how the wealth of the Beatle's catalogue could be remixed, but it may only make real artistic sense if you also see the Cirque de Solier performance.

Summary: Made Me Fall in Love with the Beatles All Over Again
Comment: I grew up with the Beatles, listening to "Something" when I was 9 years old, but over the years I forgot about the Beatles. Then came "Love," a remarkable remix that I saw performed and I was stunned. It was like falling in love with the Beatles for the first time. This mix will appeal to loyal fans and newcomers. Lush, crisp, and bright, this salient remix is a classic.

Summary: Know every Beatles song by heart? Not these versions!
Comment: It's very fun to hear these versions and try to figure out what song a little snippet came from. This does for the brains of baby boomers what mozart music does for the brains of babies. If you bought Beatles albums as they were released originally, you will really enjoy these mixes. I do not want to say more, because the surprises are part of the fun.

Summary: save your money
Comment: When I bought this cd (from Barnes and Noble) i thought to myself this is going to be great listenting. What is it? songs sung by the beatles that sound like they're high or stoned or whatever. Most of the songs are awful there are only two I liked. Please don't waste your money.

Summary: A LOVE JOURNEY THROUGH THE EYES OF THE BEATLES.
Comment: Even though I haven't been a beatlemaniac in the 60's and 70's, through the years, I have learned to appreciate THE BEATLES work as the greatest composers of rock-pop music from the last century.
LOVE is a wonderful compilation edited for a show, with a choice of such beautiful BEATLES masterpieces (how could the songs not be beautiful as all they work is wonderful?). By all means, the choice of the songs and the edition of them, with almost no interruption between one song and the following, makes of LOVE, a smooth delightful trip through love-music as wonderful as you could desire in a dream, as chosen by yourself.
You won't regret having this album in your collection, it couldn't bore you ever. I don't feel, as many times as I listen to it, as I'm listening to the score of a show, and there is no distortion of the original songs or their original arrangements, just violins in WHILE MY GUITAR GENTLY WEEPS, but, it doesn't change the beauty of George Harrison's original interpretation.
The beginning of the album with the gorgeous BECAUSE, a capella, is wonderful, is a great song, not sung as often as some BEATLES songs by other vocalists; it makes of LOVE a grateful original and pleasant beginning.
Listen to LOVE over and over, alone or in a reunion, and you will have a SCORE for the moment you're living. LOVE is a WONDERFUL ALBUM, thanks to THE BEATLES and to GEORGE MARTIN for it.
