GREATEST HITS-VOLUMEN 1993-2003 THE ARCHIVE DVD SERIES (BJORK)

Customer Reviews:

The music videos are great.......2007-03-25

These music videos are very artistic and intrinsic. The CD is much better when you have seen the videos. I really like the emotion of the songs that you can understand after watching the movies.

Perfecto!.......2007-03-20

This is an excellent introduction to Bjork's World. Every song stands on it's own, but also flows so logically to the next. I plan on buying this for several friends!

Perfect.......2006-12-03

Bjork is truly a genius musically and also visually. She's amazingly fulfilling as an artist. She's a brave and courageous woman (when you see the videos, if you haven't already, you'll know why)who has a very unique vision and is totally uninhibited about presenting it. You have all her videos before Medulla (her latest album) in brilliant sound and image quality. Of course we would love audio commemnts and a documentary about her videos and how she brought them to life, but as an artist who rarely speaks in her live performances she totally communicates to us through her very personnal and astonishing musical and visual universe. You don't need words, just to immerse yourself in abandonement in her work. And that'll be more rewarding than you'll ever know.

Stellar videos get a rather lackluster presentation.......2006-05-22

I can't think of another musical artist that has really explored the potential that video artistry can provide. Other artists may have an even greater output (Madonna, Michael Jackson), but most of their videos don't really lend themselves to viewing multiple times (not to mention their music isn't as interesting either). Even artists that are more interesting musically (i.e. New Order, Depeche Mode) only occassionally put out a really good video. This is about the only video compilation that I'd watch from beginning to end without interruption. Mind you, not everyone will like every video. There's a wide range of styles, from an artificial (Jacque Demy influenced) musical dance number to a cartoon to CGI enhanced sci-fi. I won't go into the details of the individual videos, since many already have. I will, however, comment about my big gripe about this dvd: the quality of the presentation. The sound is actually very good, with stereo for all tracks or the option for 5.1 on those tracks that had originally been mastered in that format (Vespertine era). The big problem for me is that the dvd is mastered for full screen TVs. When you select the "Play all" option, it looks like a VHS tape. Image quality is nowhere where it should be. To add to that more than half of the videos are actually widescreen, so you have the black bars on the screen of your screen & bars (sometimes actually a darkish gray color) across the top, cutting down the resolution significantly (about 1/2 of my screen is wasted by the letterboxing). Because of this, I suspect the DVD was mastered from a VHS tape, though the quality is much better than many such tape transfers, so I can't be sure. The other disappointment is that the menus/extras presentation is rather poor, much more could have been done with this, hence I deducted a star from what should have been a 5 star release.
