Kuschelrock 27 and Gold edition: A lot of repetitions

The Kuschelrock 27 issue reappears in a 3 CD set. The differences between the standard output to Gold Edition (does not appear on Amazon, but in some predominantly booksellers), follow in the text.

As always, an attempt is made, the old and new buyers alike to use. Of the 57 songs Standard Edition (58 songs Gold Editonausgabe) can be found on CD 1 rather the newer titles. On CD 2 newer and older titles were mixed. Looking at the entire stock selection would be the balanced ratio of more recent (2000 u. 2010s) given to older songs (90's and earlier) thoroughly. But on the third CD is found unfortunately almost only title repeats (except Gunfighter, UB 40) of previous editions. As a collector, I prefer it from a half star rating, since the value is not given.

Because with the examination of the artist list can be observed that there is often still find the same artist (Dido, Katie Melua, Alicia Keys, Nickelback, Coldplay, Michael Jackson, Xavier Naidoo, Kelly Clarkson, Mariah Carey) the way to the CDs in recent years. But for that there is still not published titles (eg by Al Green, Eva Cassidy ...) which could be determined with polls or not just come from the own label. Okay, but it remains as always, of course, personal taste.

My cuddly favorites are: Passenger, Tom Odell, Bruno Mars, Fergie, Triggerfinger, Birdy, Philipp Poisel, Tim Bendzko, Dido, Christina Perri, Labrinth ft Emeli Sande, Mrs. Green Bird, Jahméne Douglas, Peter Gabriel, Katie Melua, Train with. Marry Me (bonus track only on Gold Edition), James Arthur, Hurts, Marlon Roudette, Owl City, LeAnn Rimes, Sade, Wet Wet Wet, Fleetwood Mac, Johnny Logan, James Taylor, Harry Nilsson, Dani Klein with Elvis.

The total playing time was. On CD 1 with 76:52 (stdout, good) 79:52 min (Gold Edition, very good), CD 2 with 71:37 min. (Good) and in CD 3 with 80:07 min. (Very good) exploited.

The CD Kuschelrock sound is dynamic and clear that is okay.

On the equipment was not this save is opposite the Kuschelrock spending some years ago significantly. The packaging of silver or gold (gold edition) CDs are only available in cheap Digipackbox. A booklet with photos of Kuschelrock couple, lyrics or further information on some of the artists are no longer present. That costs a half star rating!

The info's the year of production, composer, lyricist, producer and playing time of the songs are printed below the transparent CD holder. The CDs are equipped with CD-Text.

Conclusion: For new buyers of Kuschelrock a decent cross-section. For fans and collectors taking into account the criticisms addressed only at a fair price worth considering.
