Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0638812734723 Label: V2 Manufacturer: V2 MPN: 27347 Number Of Discs: 2 Publisher: V2 Release Date: October 24, 2006 Studio: V2 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: It's easy to dismiss the music of this cute, vegan, bare-pated relative of Herman Melville, especially if you don't actually listen to the music and focus instead on his ultra-PC interview style or the manner in which he sold dozens of songs to commercials and film soundtracks back in Y2K. But to do so is to knee-jerkedly miss out on some very fine and innovative music by one of the most influential musicians of the last decade. With the exception of two tracks (one of them the title tune), Go is a best-of from the years that Moby's been on the V2 label, from 1999's breakthrough hit Play onward. But Play--with its uncanny reworking of field recordings with playful beats and ambient textures--remains the artist's finest moment. A full disc of remixes and a smattering of unreleased songs (including a rad new number with Debbie Harry on guest vocals) make this an essential purchase for rabid fans. And, as a judicious selection of Play-era material is included alongside the finest songs from Moby's subsequent albums, 18 and Hotel, this is also the perfect entry point for the more casual fan. --Mike McGonigal Album Description: The only definitive greatest hits collection chronicling Moby's entire career. It also features new and previously unreleased material - (1) new single "New York, New York" with Blondie's Debbie Harry (2) two new mixes - including one of "GO," his debut commercial smash (3) a live version of "Feeling So Real." The DELUXE EDITION features an 11-track BONUS remix CD personally compiled by Moby and includes the legendary "Bodyrock" Olav Basoski remix. The deluxe edition tracks are NOT available on ANY Moby full-length CD. Album Description: Deluxe edition featuring bonus DVD containing a 30:00 album documentary entitled: GO - The Very Best Of Moby - A Short film. Go - The Very Best Of Moby compiles 15 songs from Moby's unique back catalogue, including seminal tracks from the multi-million and multi-platinum selling albums Play and 18. Album also contains brand new, previously unavailable song `New York, New York' (featuring Blondie's Debbie Harry!). The release features Opendisc technology allowing exclusive access to six previously unreleased, free downloads as well as a photo gallery and videos all introduced with a special greeting from Moby. Album Details: UK Edition of Reluctant Rocker Richard Melville Hall's 2006 Anthology of Greatest Hits. The 15 Tracks Chronicle his Career Up to 2006 and Includes the Exclusive, Previously Unreleased Single "new York, New York" with Vocals from Nyc Icon and Blondie Frontwoman Debbie Harry. The Set also Includes a 2006 Mix of "go" (The Track that Started it All), a Live Version of "feeling So Real" Recorded in London, and a New Mix of "in My Heart". Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Great especially if you like fashion show catwalk music.Meh, I don't like fashion show catwalk music. And the bonus disc is just full of the hypey-techno-push dance tunes, a genre I really, really don't like. There are several cuts I do like a lot on here, but wish I'd have got -18- instead. Rating:  - Go: The Very Best of MobyThis album is simply wonderful. I listen to it daily, still. I recommend it highly. Moby is great. Rating: - Good for the casual fanI'm a casual fan of Moby, and I enjoyed this. It has a number of good tracks that I hadn't encountered previously (i.e., on the radio). Well worth the price. The remix CD I could take or leave... perhaps it would be good for a dance party. Rating: - Interesting Remix and "Best of"Famous DJ's take Moby tracks and really remix them. First CD is a best of, the second CD is why you'll buy the album with a variety of different mixes from the DJs. A good CD to add to your Moby collection. Rating: - The best of MobyI am not the massive fan of Moby's music as I once was back in the late '90s and early '00s. I used to own most of his cds but eventually my taste in music changed and I sold my Moby cds. I decided to check out Moby's best of compilation GO: THE VERY BEST OF MOBY after I had a craving for his music. There are two discs, disc one consists of the original tracks and disc two consists of remixes. I found the remix disc absolute rubbish and boring beyond belief. It was so not necessary to include a remix ... Read More |
