Customer Reviews amazing Kee Marcelo is such an amazing guitarist. I got this cd for the guitar player. I found out though that this band as a whole were even more amazing. After listening to this once you will find yourself walking around humming songs from it then when you get home you will need to listen to it more and more. For those who like rock this cd is a must have. So get and enjoy!. A perfect blend for someone who wants the full story. We get all the big ones - Final Countdown, Cherokee, Rock the Night and Superstitious et al. For those who really want the full story on these guys this is probably the perfect release. We also get the usual quality Europe sound and we do get a real glimpse of a range of this bands faces. There are some real rockers here and also the inevitable ballads. For the casual observer, the one disc 82-92 may be the better bet as it's more concise. For the fan who is more into it then this double CD would be my pick to throw in the car before heading off for that holiday, as the longer format has given the space for a more rounded appreciation of this band. Good stuff. essential This is a much more complete collection, showcasing the very best from 1983-1991. "Rock the Night: The Very Best of Europe" is the double CD collection that should've been released in place of the single disc "1982-1992". The perfect collection for anyone discovering the band, and worthwhile for existing fans due to the inclusion of rare tracks "Long time commin", "Government man", and the 1985 recording of "Seven doors hotel", plus a couple of live tracks. Of course, everyone knows Europe for "The final countdown". This song was such a MEGA hit that people forget how popular songs like "Superstitious", "Carrie", "Cherokee", "Rock the night", "Let the good times rock", etc. actually were. This collection certainly dispels the myth that some people have that Europe was a one-song band. All tracks are digitally re-mastered and thus sound stronger than the original album releases. In short, this is a nice compilation of the first half of the band's career. This, plus the 2004 album "Start from the dark" are essential listening for anyone discovering Europe! . .
