Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: mmmm yeah whatever Comment: Ooh I do like John Adams. Steve Reisch seems to be taking the mick with his head-doing loops, and really doesn't deserve to be on this CD. I liked some of his stuff when I first heard it, now it's annoying, and I skip over it every time. Phil Glass can just about get away with it, but he's basically doing the same simplistic rubbish that Reisch does - just better, and more commercial. David Heath surely knows how to poo on his own settee: what's he doing spoiling his piece with those grating "violin's doing rock guitar riffs" rubbish? If I could, i'd erase them out and leave the rest of the tune. So in summary, the first five are great; "8 Lines" interrupts the mood, making you have to press the skip button; and the rest is OK, apart from the last otherwise agreeable tune being spoilt by some "whoops I've run out of ideas" drivel. You can always just copy the good bits on to an MD or PC then copy 'em again onto a new CD. More Reviews
